mysql curious behavour of datetime field

Post by bill-lancaster »

I have a datetime field in a mysql database. I recently added a record with the value 07/25/2019 23:00:00 (I think)
When displayed in a gridview table 07/25/2019 23:00:00 is shown but "print hResult!DateTime" shows "26/07/2019 00:00:00"
I have made a simple programme that creates a new record " hResultNew!TestDateTime = Date(2019, 7, 29, 23, 30, 00)" but the display in gridview has the wrong time.
What's going on here!
I hope I'm not doing something stupid but any ideas are welcome

Code: Select all

Private hConn As New Connection
Private hResult As Result

Public Sub Form_Open()
Dim i As Integer
   ' hConn = MysqlLibrary.DbConnect("test")
   With hconn
      .Type = "mysql"
      .Port = "3306"
      .Host = "localhost"
      .User = "root"
      .Password = "*******"
      .Name = "test"
      .Open()
   End With
   hResult = hConn.Find("general")
   gdvTest.Columns.Count = 2
   gdvTest.Rows.Count = hResult.Count
   For Each hResult
      gdvTest[i, 0].Text = hResult!id
      gdvTest[i, 1].Text = hResult!TestDateTime
      Print hResult!TestDateTime      
      Inc i
   Next
End

Public Sub Button1_Click()
Dim hResultNew As Result
   hResultNew = hConn.Create("general")
   hResultNew!TestDateTime = Date(2019, 7, 29, 23, 30, 00)
   hResultNew.Update
End

It must be an issue with UTC vs local time but I'm not sure what to do about it at the moment

Hi Bill,

That's exactly what it is. It was recently discussed on the mailing list.

Hopefully, that'll help you out a bit.

Not just mySQL with a GridView, but also SQLite with GridView.

I'm wondering around lost in the past, not knowing where the present is.
