Hi all,

 

The Derby documentation says about the OVERLAPS predicate that it "can be
done with Java methods".

 

Could someone please give an example on how to do this? I need to find out
if a timeframe that is calculated in my application (start and end datetimes
known as Java Date objects) overlaps with any timeframes stored in the db.
My table has the fields start_datetime (type TIMESTAMP) and
duration_in_milliseconds (type BIGINT). There is no "end_time" field as
such. Duration can be NULL in the db, then it shall be assumed the duration
is one hour.

 

How can I write this query?

 

Any help greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

Martin
