Hello David;

I wrote such a thing some years ago to handle an odd situation with MySQL and NSTimestamp. You may like to download LEWOStuff and look at the class;

        nz.co.lindesay.common.webobjects.eo.LEEONSTimestampFromMySQLString

Sorry I no longer have any doco on the usage of this class, but it may give you some pointers.

cheers.

I'm trying to work with an existing database where they have stored date/time information as a Long Integer in the database. I'm trying to figure out the best way to use a Custom Type in the Entity Model so the app sees the attributes as NSTimestamps. I've subclassed NSTimestamp and added a method to convert the db value to it when read, which works, but getting it to write a Long back to the database is what I'm struggling with.
I'm sure it is something simple, but I'm just not seeing it.
