JAVA and MYSQL NOW() Function only displays year?

Question

I have run into something interesting with running the MYSQL NOW() function.
Here is what I'm running:
SELECT  NOW() from databaseThis gives me "2010" only. Any idea why this may be? If I run the same mysql query in mysql from the command line I get the correct output "2010-01-14 14:10:03".
Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Answer 1

I'm not doubting that. Here is how I'm using it.
import java.util.Date;
String userName = "username";
               String password = "password";
               String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/database";
               Class.forName ("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance ();
               conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url, userName, password);
               //System.out.println ("Database connection established");
               Statement s = conn.createStatement ();
               s.executeQuery ("SELECT NOW() from database' ");
               ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet ();
               int count = 0;
               Date timenow = null;
               while (rs.next ())
                   timenow = rs.getDate ("NOW()");
                ++count;
System.out.println (timenow);Tried this too.
String userName = "username";
               String password = "password";
               String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/database";
               Class.forName ("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance ();
               conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url, userName, password);
               //System.out.println ("Database connection established");
               Statement s = conn.createStatement ();
               s.executeQuery ("SELECT NOW() from database' ");
               ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet ();
               Date timenow = null;
                   timenow = rs.getDate ("NOW()");
System.out.println (timenow);Edited by: crusherdestroyer on Jan 14, 2010 2:04 PM
