This article provides information about the following type and type members, related to the OLE DB date and time enhancements.

  • DBBINDING structure

  • ICommandWithParameters::GetParameterInfo

  • ICommandWithParameters::SetParameterInfo

  • IColumnsRowset::GetColumnsRowset

  • IColumnsInfo::GetColumnInfo

ICommandWithParameters::GetParameterInfo

The following information is returned in the DBPARAMINFO structure through prgParamInfo:

Parameter Type wType ulParamSize bPrecision bScale dwFlags

DBPARAMFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE
date DBTYPE_DBDATE 6 10 0 Clear
time DBTYPE_DBTIME2 10 8, 10..16 0..7 Set
smalldatetime DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 16 0 Clear
datetime DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 23 3 Clear
datetime2 DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 19, 21..27 0..7 Set
datetimeoffset DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET 20 26, 28..34 0..7 Set

Notice that in some cases value ranges are not continuous. This is due to the addition of a decimal point when fractional precision is greater than zero.

DBPARAMFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE is only valid when connected to a server running SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and later versions. DBPARAMFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE is never set when connected to down-level servers.

ICommandWithParameters::SetParameterInfo and Implied Parameter Types

The information provided in the DBPARAMBINDINFO structure must conform to the following:

pwszDataSourceType

(provider specific)
pwszDataSourceType

(OLE DB generic)
ulParamSize bScale
DBTYPE_DATE 6 Ignored
date DBTYPE_DBDATE 6 Ignored
DBTYPE_DBTIME 10 Ignored
time DBTYPE_DBTIME2 10 0..7
smalldatetime 16 Ignored
datetime 16 Ignored
datetime2 or DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 0..7
datetimeoffset DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET 20 0..7

The bPrecision parameter is ignored.

"DBPARAMFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE" is ignored when sending data to the server. Applications can force the use of legacy tabular-data stream (TDS) types by using the provider-specific type names "datetime" and "smalldatetime". When connected to servers running SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and later versions, "datetime2" format will be used and an implicit server conversion will occur, if necessary, when the type name is "datetime2" or "DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP". bScale is ignored if the provider specific type names "datetime" or "smalldatetime" are used. Otherwise, applications must ensure that bScale is set correctly. Applications upgraded from MDAC and OLE DB Driver for SQL Server from SQL Server 2005 (9.x) that use "DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP" will fail if they do not set bScale correctly. When connected to server instances earlier than SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x), a bScale value other than 0 or 3 with "DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP" is an error and E_FAIL will be returned.

When ICommandWithParameters::SetParameterInfo is not called, the provider implies the server type from the binding type as specified in IAccessor::CreateAccessor as follows:

Binding Type pwszDataSourceType

(provider specific)
DBTYPE_DATE datetime2(0)
DBTYPE_DBDATE date
DBTYPE_DBTIME time(0)
DBTYPE_DBTIME2 time(7)
DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP datetime2(7)
DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET datetimeoffset(7)

IColumnsRowset::GetColumnsRowset

IColumnsRowset::GetColumnsRowset returns the following columns:

Column Type DBCOLUMN_TYPE DBCOLUM_COLUMNSIZE DBCOLUMN_PRECISION DBCOLUMN_SCALE, DBCOLUMN_DATETIMEPRECISION DBCOLUMN_FLAGS, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE
date DBTYPE_DBDATE 6 10 0 Clear
time DBTYPE_DBTIME2 10 8, 10..16 0..7 Set
smalldatetime DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 16 0 Clear
datetime DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 23 3 Clear
datetime2 DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 19, 21..27 0..7 Set
datetimeoffset DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET 20 26, 28..34 0..7 Set

In DBCOLUMN_FLAGS, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISFIXEDLENGTH is always true for date/time types and the following flags are always false:

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_CACHEDEFERRED

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISBOOKMARK

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISCHAPTER

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISLONG

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISROWID

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISROWVER

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_MAYDEFER

The remaining flags (DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISNULLABLE, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_MAYBENULL, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_WRITE, and DBCOLUMNFLAGS_WRITEUNKNOWN) can be set, depending on how the column is defined and the actual query.

A new flag DBCOLUMNFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE is provided in DBCOLUMN_FLAGS to allow an application to determine the server type of columns, where DBCOLUMN_TYPE is DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP. DBCOLUMN_SCALE or DBCOLUMN_DATETIMEPRECISION must also be used to identify the server type.

DBCOLUMNFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE is only valid when connected to a server running SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and later versions. DBCOLUMNFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE is undefined when connected to down-level servers.

IColumnsInfo::GetColumnInfo

DBCOLUMNINFO structure returns the following information:

Parameter Type wType ulColumnSize bPrecision bScale dwFlags

DBPARAMFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE
date DBTYPE_DBDATE 6 10 0 Clear
time(1..7) DBTYPE_DBTIME2 10 8, 10..16 0..7 Set
smalldatetime DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 16 0 Clear
datetime DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 23 3 Clear
datetime2 DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP 16 19, 21..27 0..7 Set
datetimeoffset DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET 20 26, 28..34 0..7 Set

In dwFlags, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISFIXEDLENGTH is always true for date/time types and the following flags are always false:

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_CACHEDEFERRED

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISBOOKMARK

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISCHAPTER

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISLONG

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISROWID

  • DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISROWVER, MAYDEFER

The remaining flags (DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISNULLABLE, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_MAYBENULL, DBCOLUMNFLAGS_WRITE, and DBCOLUMNFLAGS_WRITEUNKNOWN) can be set.

A new flag DBCOLUMNFLAGS_SS_ISVARIABLESCALE is provided in dwFlags to allow an application to determine the server type of columns, where wType is DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP. bScale must also be used to identify the server type.
