Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-234:
---------------------------------------

Hi Dag, thanks for pointing this out. 

Is that a standard format? Or is that a Derby extension? If it
is a Derby extension, I'd be tempted not to document it, since
I think we would prefer users to use the standard formats, right?

> The documentation for datatypes DATE, TIME, and TIMESTAMP is incomplete. The 
> documentation says that DATE, TIME, and TIMESTAMP accept any values accepted 
> by the java.sql.Date, java.sql.Time, and java.sql.Timestamp classes 
> respectively. Derby accepts a number of string formats:
> DATE:
>   yyyy-mm-dd
>   mm/dd/yyyy
>   dd.mm.yyyy
> TIME:
>   hh:mm[:ss]
>   hh.mm[.ss]
>   hh[:mm] {AM | PM}
> TIMESTAMP:
>   yyyy-mm-dd-hh[.mm[.ss[.nnnnnn]]]
>   yyyy-mm-dd hh[:mm[:ss[.nnnnnn]]]
> The year must always have 4 digits. Months, days, and hours may have one or 
> two digits. Minutes and seconds, if present, must have two digits. 
> Nanoseconds, if present may have 1 to 6 digits.
> Derby also accepts strings in the locale specific datetime format, using the 
> locale of the database server. If there is an ambiguity the built in formats 
> above take precedence.
