[Zope] date in Z Gadfly Database

[Farrell, Troy]

Note that Gadfly does not support the DATE datatype.  You can use VARCHAR to
store a string, or switch to a different database, such as PostgreSQL (my
personal preference) or MySQL.  The answer to your question is found here:

Subject: [Zope] date in Z Gadfly Database


When i create a table, one of the fields is consider as date type, but the Z
Gadfly Database does not allow me to do that, it only accepts INTEGER
instead of DATE type.

The following is my SQL for creating a table:-

CREATE TABLE customer
(custid VARCHAR(10),
custname VARCHAR(15),
custactdate DATE,
custadd1 VARCHAR(30),
custadd2 VARCHAR(30))

 
Please let me know if i got an error.Thank You.
