davidjbb SOQL
Hello Community,
From my system.debug I got the following:
2012-08-17 17:16:00
I am trying to do a SOQL on DateTime i.e
where (jbbfc2__Start_Date__c >= :getFromDate() and jbbfc2__finished_date__c <= :getToDate())
However, my SOQL isn't taking into consideration of the dates and I believe it's the dateTime from getFromDate() and getToDate()
//Get From Date
public datetime getFromDate(){
System.debug('FROM DATE'+ controllerObject.Start_Date__c);
return this.fromDate = controllerObject.Start_Date__c;
}
How do I convert the DateTime to the following, so the query will work?
- YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss+hh:mm
- YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss-hh:mm
- YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ
Did you try the datetime method: 'format' ?
Here are the details: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_methods_system_datetime.htm
Don't think that's going to work because it'll try to bind a string return type to the start_date__c which is date time.
what's the solution to getting around that if i use
.format('yyyy-MM-dd\'T\'hh:mm:ss\'Z\'')
How about something like this:
String mydate = DateTime.now().format('yyyy-MM-dd\'T\'hh:mm:ss\'z\'');
System.debug('...' +Database.query('select Id from Account where createddate <' + mydate + ' limit 10'));
You cannot compare datetime and date in SOQL.
So best way is to convert datetime to date and do your comparing.
Datetime dt=System.now();
Date test=Date.newinstance(Dt.year(),DT.month(),DT.Day());
Hope this will help to solve your issue.
Finished_Date__c is a datetime field. I'm not trying to compare a datetime to a date.
