Hello,
Using Cayenne 3.0M3, MySQL 5.
I have a field which is a TIMESTAMP. It maps to a Java.util.Date class
in Java.
If I do a myObject.setMyTimestamp(new Date()) I will store the local
date.
I would like to store a GMT date.
I tried doing this:
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
myObject.setMyTimestamp(cal.getTime());
but again, I am back to the local time. Indeed, a trace shows "cal" is
correctly set at the GMT value, but cal.getTime() is back to the local
time (or at least the printout is, but it is as if Cayenne took the
formated value and not the actual date value).
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks,
Alex
