Re: Timestamps

[E Bunders]

I don't know what database you're using, but mysql has a columntype called 'timestamp'. a field of that type will automatically updated by the dbms.

So i added the necessary stuff to my news.xml and let mmbase create the tables in the database. It created a bigint(20) but when i add a newsmessage there is no timestamp added to the database. Do i have to fill this field by hand. If which format? The examples don't provide much info about this type of field syncnodes.xml and message.xml are the only builders with a timestamp. Any help would be nice. Greetings, Sjoerd de Heer
