There seems to be a flaw in the myODBC driver
02.50 when working with the Unix-Timestamp()
function.
Apparently, the driver doesn't know which
data-type to use...
When I send the sql statement:
--------------------------------------
Select
( UNIX_TIMESTAMP(U.lastTime) -
UNIX_TIMESTAMP(D.prevTime)
) as dateDiff
FROM ...
--------------------------------------
I get an empty recordset, but no Error-message.
When I change to ...
--------------------------------------
Select
concat(
( UNIX_TIMESTAMP(U.myTime) -
UNIX_TIMESTAMP(D.latestDwnl)
)
, ' testDummy'
) as dateDiff
FROM ...
--------------------------------------
I get the results as to be expected
>> 1294572 testDummy
>> 652223 testDummy
>> -19864771 testDummy
This workaround would be complete if I could convert
this string to an integer.
Or is there a beter way altogether, to calculate the
difference between two dates?
Not the same as the SUBDATE()-function, is it?
best regards,
bart
