re: Panic attack

ACK! -- forget that last one: Of course there's an add(Date), Gary was
just too blind to see it.

How to compare DATETIME (Re: Panic attack)

Posted by Gary Lawrence Murphy <ga...@canada.com>.
No, on second thought, I was right the first time: Criteria has no
add(datecolumn, java.util.Date, comparison)

A non-portable work-around is to format the date into a MySQL-accepted
string format and submit that instead (using SimpleDateFormat):

        SimpleDateFormat df
            = new SimpleDateFormat ("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss");
        String now = formatter.format(new Date());
        Criteria c = new Criteria()
            .add( TableA.EXPIRES, now, Criteria.LESS_THAN );
        TableA.doDelete(c);

it is also curious that Torque DATE does not map to DATE but maps
to DATETIME, whereas Torque TIME maps to TIME and TIMESTAMP maps
to TIMESTAMP ... almost every SQL server supports DATETIME, so it
is probably a good idea to have DATE map to DATE and introduce a
DATETIME option.
