Hi,The docs say the following date types are available: DateTime, Date, Time I have always just used DateTime, but would actually like to work in seconds and therefore use a Time object. Is there any difference in the background in using Time as a type? e.g.: property :created_at, Time, :default => proc { |m,p| Time.now} cheers, DAZ
The differences lie in the Ruby types you'll be working with, as the types correspond with Ruby date and time classes. I suggest you have a look at their documentation and judge by yourself.
As far as I'm concerned, DateTime has support for timezones and some other fancy things, while both Date and Time are a little "simpler". Depends on your needs. I usually just use Date or Time.
