Prior to <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 7.3, writing just |
|
|
|
|
<type>timestamp</type> was equivalent to <type>timestamp with |
|
|
|
|
time zone</type>. This was changed for SQL compliance. |
|
|
|
|
The SQL standard requires that writing just <type>timestamp</type> |
|
|
|
|
be equivalent to <type>timestamp <emphasis>without</> time |
|
|
|
|
zone</type>, and <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> honors that |
|
|
|
|
behavior. (Releases prior to 7.3 treated it as <type>timestamp |
|
|
|
|
with time zone</type>.) |
