Hello,

Today I got the exception "String was not recognized as a valid TimeSpan" when trying to read an oracle column which is specified as

TIME_ELAPSED INTERVAL DAY(2) TO SECOND(6)

When debuging my code:

The following statement

Code: Select all

tmpResultOracleReader[10]

shows in my watch-window that this is an object {System.Timespan}, and it holds the correct values (days, hours, seconds, etc...)
so this seems OK

But when i try the following code

Code: Select all

tmpResultOracleReader.GetTimeSpan(10)

then my watch-window shows the System.formatException ("String was not recognized as a valid TimeSpan.)

--> why does the .GetTimeSpan(...) method of the Devart.Data.Oracle.OracleDataReader object doesn't return a correct timestamp, but the simple indexer does ???

[/code]

thx
Fred

We have reproduced the issue. We will investigate it and notify you about the results as soon as possible.

We have fixed the bug with using the OracleDataReader.GetTimeSpan method for INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND column. We will post here when the corresponding build of dotConnect for Oracle is available for download.
