如何将文本数据类型的数据库字段中的 java 日期 toString 值格式化为 mysql 日期表示形式？

Question

Given i have a table in which a certain field has a text data type, lets say FieldValue coulmn given text as data type. I am saving a date object from java using the full format and saving this in the column like this:

Wed Jul 25 00:00:00 CST 2012

Now i want to make this a date type in my mysql query using str_to_date() function so that i can make a date to date comparison in my query.

Is this possible given the scenario above?

Answer 1

try this, is working:

SET @var_time = 'Wed Jul 25 00:00:00 2012';

SELECT STR_TO_DATE(REPLACE(@var_time, 'CST ', ""),'%a %M %d %H:%i:%s %Y');

You can store result of above query in TIMESTAMP field in MySQL and do further operation on time and dates.
