[#DC-674] NULL Dates are translated to '0000-00-00' after upgrading to 1.2.2

Comment by Jonathan H. Wage [ 10/May/10 ]

Are you able to reproduce this in a test case?

Comment by Ville Itämaa [ 11/May/10 ]

We reverted to Doctrine 1.2.1 after realising the bug to confirm it was Doctrine 1.2.2 that was the cause for the problem. And as a result the records with NULL dates in the DB became NULL in the Models.
But when using Doctrine 1.2.2, the NULL dates became '0000-00-00' in the Models.
I don't have any other way to reproduce this error.

Were you able to identity which changeset it was? You can read about creating test cases here http://www.doctrine-project.org/documentation/manual/1_2/en/unit-testing

So far I am not able to reproduce the error you described.

I'd like to fix this. Did you ever figure out which changeset introduced the issue? I've been trying to figure it out myself.

With 1.2.3 this works for me fine with both TIMESTAMP and DATE fields.

YAML

        date_of_birth:
            type: date

BASE MODEL

        $this->hasColumn('date_of_birth', 'date', null, array(
             'type' => 'date',

             // try these two
             // 'notnull' => false,
             // 'default' => null
         ));

YAML

        exported_at:
            type: timestamp(25)
            notnull: false
            default: null

            # in this model I have everything to make sure it accepts and defaults to NULL

BASE MODEL

        $this->hasColumn('exported_at', 'timestamp', 25, array(
             'type' => 'timestamp',
             'notnull' => false,
             'length' => '25',
             ));

You may try adding these to your YAML and (base) models

YAML

    fieldname:
         . . .
        notnull: false
        default: null

BASE MODEL

        $this->hasColumn('fieldname', . . .
             . . .
             'notnull' => false, // <<<<<<<
             // 'default' => null, // <<< maybe, probably not needed
             ));

I hope it helps.
