Summary: Timestamp column won't accept insert without time

Initial Comment:
If I create the following table

CREATE TABLE testdate (
        id INTEGER NOT NULL,
        adate DATE,
        adatetime TIMESTAMP,
        PRIMARY KEY (id)
)

I can't insert the following:


INSERT INTO testdate (id, adate, adatetime) VALUES (1, '2007-10-30', 
'2007-10-30');

It gives the following error:

!SQLException:timestamp:conversion of string '2007-10-30' failed

One could argue that a timestamp is a superset of date, and thus should accept 
date formatted input.  (I believe mysql, postgres and oracle behave this way).  
The databases should just add an implied 00:00:00.000000 for the time portion 
of the timestamp value.

ps - the following works, which is sort of confusing too (what does the "0:0" 
mean?)

INSERT INTO testdate (id, adate, adatetime) VALUES (2, '2007-10-30', 
'2007-10-30 0:0');
