Any chance of formatting Date object returned by resultset getDate() method

问题

I want to skip the parsing of date and formatting it. Instead i directly want to fetch the date from database in custom format. Is this possible ?

回答1:

Yes, change your SQL query to format the date. For example, if you use oracle, you need to use the function TO_CHAR(dateColumn, 'YYYY/MM/DD'), and that will return a String column with the date formatted as '2012/09/14'.

You can set format in your query. (My example is run on sqlserver)

something like..

SELECT CONVERT (VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 103)

You need look into the functions provided by the database vendor.

For example, in Oracle we can use the following syntax in the SQL itself

TO_CHAR('date', 'format')

So go thru the documentation database you use.
