Temporal Annotation
The @Temporal is a Hibernate JPA annotation that is used for java.util.Date or java.util.Calendar. It converts the date and time values into a compatible format when storing or retrieving from a database. When handling temporal data remember to define the expected precision in the database. Temporal data precision can have DATE, TIME, or TIMESTAMP.
Example
@Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
@Column(name="DATETIME_COL")
public Date dateAndTime;
@Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
@Column(name="TIMESTAMP_COL")
public Date timeStamp;
@Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
@Column(name="DATE_COL")
public Date date;
@Temporal(TemporalType.TIME)
@Column(name="TIME_COL")
public Date time;
