Specifies how the driver describes the data type for Date/Time/Timestamp output parameters.
This property only applies to connections to Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and higher and Microsoft Windows Azure SQL Database. For connections to prior versions of Microsoft SQL Server, the driver always describes Date/Time/Timestamp output parameters as datetime.
Valid values
auto | dateTime | dateTimeOffset
Behavior
If set to auto, the driver uses the following rules to describe the data type of Date/Time/Timestamp output parameters:
If an output parameter is set using setDate(), the driver describes it as date.
If an output parameter is set using setTime(), the driver describes it as time.
If an output parameter is set using setTimestamp(), the driver describes it as datetimeoffset.
If set to dateTime, the driver describes Date/Time/Timestamp output parameters as datetime.
If set to dateTimeOffset, the driver describes Date/Time/Timestamp output parameters as datetimeoffset.
If an output parameter is set using setDate(), the driver describes it as date.
