Re: Timezone locale consistency for functional indexes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

default in Java's Hibernate which created the timestamp columns
without time zone.

Anyway I guess this is the correct approach that also take summer time
into consideration? And using the immutable function wrapper is wrong?
