The following SQL Query:
CREATE TABLE "SomeTable" ("dateEnd" DATE)
Creates a table SomeTable with a column dateEnd. However, the database-type is Timestamp, not Date. It used to work, but after reimporting a whole database dump, all the Date data-types are replaced by Timestamp data-types. Even If I create a very simple table, like the one above, the data-type jumps to Timestamp. I am using DB2 express c version 11.1.0.
If your Db2 database was created in Oracle Compatibility mode, then DATE columns are implemented as TIMESTAMP(0) columns to match what Oracle does.
BTW you may want to use either Db2 Developer-C or Db2 Developer Community Edition. Those are effectively replacing the old Express-C edition
