Problem with Calendar showing first day events

Question

In my Java Bean, i have the following:
public ResultSet getEvents(GregorianCalendar start, GregorianCalendar end)
          ResultSet rs = null;
          java.sql.Timestamp startDate = new java.sql.Timestamp(start.getTimeInMillis());
          java.sql.Timestamp endDate = new java.sql.Timestamp(end.getTimeInMillis());
          try {
          ps = con.prepareStatement("select * from events where startDate = '" + startDate + "' and startDate <= '" + endDate + "' order by startTime");
          rs = ps.executeQuery();
          catch (SQLException sqle) {}
          return rs;
When ever my JSP page calls for this, it will not show the first day of the month Events. What am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

I would guess that there's an SQLException being thrown, probably due to your database not liking the toString() output of Timestamp. Your code is eating SQLExceptions, though, so you'll never see the error.
You've gone to the trouble of creating Timestamp objects, use them appropriately:ps = con.prepareStatement("select * from events where startDate >= ? and startDate <= ? order by startTime");
ps.setTimestamp(1, startDate);
ps.setTimestamp(2, endDate);
rs = ps.executeQuery();
