Timestamp Class
The following code example demonstrates that the default constructor creates a null
value, and how you can assign a non null value to a timestamp and perform
operations on it:
Environment *env = Environment::createEnvironment();
//create a null timestamp
Timestamp ts;
if(ts.isnull())
cout executeQuery("select order_date from orders
where customer_id=1");
rs->next();
//retrieve the timestamp column from result set
Timestamp ts=rs->getTimestamp(1);
//check timestamp for null
if(!ts.isNull())
{
//get the timestamp value in string format
string tsstr=ts.toText("dd/mm/yyyy hh:mi:ss [tzh:tzm]",0);
