Inserting Java Date in MySQL as Datetime

[Nicolás Muñoz]

Hi, I am trying to insert a date from Java to a MySQL database (DATETIME) using Hibernate. Hibernate maps a Datetime as a java.util.Date but this class has many methods which have been deprecated. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Thanks for any help

What's the problem? Just don't use the deprecated methods.

I know I must not use them. I guess my real question is: what steps should I follow to correctly insert a Datetime in MySQL using Hibernate?

[Bear Bibeault]

You'll need to be more specific as to what your problem is. The whole point of Hibernate is that you shouldn't need to worry about the details. Is your question that you are unsure how to go about mapping Date fields?

Just because some methods are deprecated doesn't mean the *class* is deprecated.
