Java Enterprise in a Nutshell, Second Edition

Name

Timestamp

Synopsis

Extends the java.util.Date class to function as an SQL TIMESTAMP value by adding a nanoseconds component. The getTime() method returns the time in milliseconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 GMT to the latest integral second. To include fractional seconds, divide the value returned by getNanos() by 1000000 and add this to the result returned by getTime(). This allows accurate comparisons with java.util.Date objects. The valueOf() method parses a String in the format yyyy - mm - dd hh : mm : ss . fffffffff into a Timestamp.
