Class Date

java.lang.Object

  +--oracle.jbo.domain.Date
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable

public class Date
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

This class provides a lightweight wrapper for java.sql.Date, the native Java type for date objects. This wrapper allows an instance of the java.sql.Date to be used as a domain object. The intent of many of the methods in this class is to wrap the corresponding method in the java.sql.Date class such that it returns an instance of an oracle.jbo.domain.Date object.
