I am going into the wild side, I did not test it.I am assuming that you have nls_date_format set in the clients to the format you need and JDBC thin does not use this but gets the database default nls_date_format.
You can set in init.ora the DATABASE default nls_date_format.So, if you put nls_date_format='MON DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS' in the init.ora and bounce the database, the JDBC thin clients will get the date format that you want.
Test, test and test again. Yechiel On 21/02/2011 21:04, Sandra Becker wrote:
Here's what a developer gave me from a test he ran to show the format differences:| using oci 9.2 | using thin NLS_DATE_FORMAT | Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS | DD-MON-RR
