     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-163?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Knut Anders Hatlen resolved DERBY-163.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
    
> Timestamps do not display trailing zeros
> ----------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: DERBY-163
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-163
>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Documentation
>    Affects Versions: 10.0.2.0
>         Environment: Windows XP Professional SP1
>            Reporter: George Baklarz
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: derby_triage10_5_2
>             Fix For: 10.2.2.0

> The timestamp format within Derby contains the following information:
>     yyyy-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss.mmmmmm
> When issuing a CURRENT TIMESTAMP function, it returns
>     yyyy-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss.mmm
> If you do a TIMESTAMP('1988-12-15-17.12.30.123400') it will return
>     1988-12-15-17.12.30.1234
> Is there any particular reason why Derby does not display the zeros at the end of the field? This may just be just to be consistent with the ISO standards, but if you look at the example in the manual, it shows:
>   VALUES TIMESTAMP(START_DATE, END_DATE)
>   1988-12-25-17.12.30.000000
> If I try this with a simple table:
> CREATE TABLE TS (A DATE, B TIME);
> INSERT INTO TS VALUES (CURRENT DATE, CURRENT TIME);
> SELECT TIMESTAMP(A,B) FROM TS;
> ij> select timestamp(a,b) from ts;
> 1
> --------------------------
> 2005-03-04 15:13:19.0
> So the 0's are not displayed, except for the first microsecond. The format needs to be clarified either in the manuals or corrected in the program.
