http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/SQL_dialects_reference/Data_structure_definitio... All (but one) SQL dialects have a date type.
However, Drupal's Schema API does not seem to have a type for date only: http://drupal.org/node/159605
It causes schema.module to complain: no type for Schema type date:normal. I am concerned that with the new Schema API, my modules may not install properly anymore. (how can it install a table where a column has an unsupported type?)
Just do a normal db_query. I've had to do that for event.module since it needs a time type.
Is this a purposeful omission?
IIRC it was decided that "nobody needs it" or "it is too complicated because of pgsql". IMO it's a bug.
How are you all coping with the lack of time/date data type? What workarounds do you use?
See event.install. Cheers, Gerhard -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIa1zUfg6TFvELooQRAhiGAKDD+LFNzxsHswjASEioEMahb6NElgCfX8yM qaPIvws5zCsr64hPl7sz/tE= =vmeQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
