DB2 - Problem description
Problem IC98756 | Status: Closed |
DATE PARAMETER MARKER IS NOT CONVERTED TO TIMESTAMP(0) IN A DATE AS TIMESTAMP(0) ENABLED DATABASE WITH DEFERRED PREPARE ENABLED | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
In a DATE as TIMESTAMP(0) enabled database, the data type DATE should always be treated as TIMESTAMP(0). However, when DB2_DEFERRED_PREPARE_SEMANTICS is enabled, a parameter marker that is set to the DATE data type will not be converted to TIMESTAMP(0). This may not cause any problem at all, or there may be various symptoms depending on how the parameter marker is used. This example would not have any problem since the query only looks at the year: select * from T where year(?) = year( current date ) The following query fails with SQLCODE -401: select * from T where DATECOL < ? + 1 The following query may return a wrong result because HOUR(?) always returns 0: select * from T where hour(?) = hour( current date ) In the next example, the returned value will be a simple DATE (year, month and day) instead of the expected TIMESTAMP(0): select ? from T | |
