So, I was attempting to upgrade the instance of SQL Server 2005 on my work PC to SQL Server 2008, and was presented with this gem - guess we now know the preferred game of the SQL Server developers. :lol:

not technically HoS material, but i would happily drown this individual...

Code: Select all

// Check if date is valid!
String allowed = "not allowed";

sql = "SELECT IF(DATE(?) <= DATE(?),'allowed','not allowed')";
stmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
stmt.setString(1, firstDate);
stmt.setString(2, terminationDate);
rs = stmt.executeQuery();

while(rs.next()){
    allowed = rs.getString(1);
}
rs.close();
stmt.close();

if(!allowed.equalsIgnoreCase("allowed")){
    throw new Exception("Termination Date to early!");
}
:/...

From a total non-programmer....

Shouldn't that rather read:
"Termination Date too early!"

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.

:lol: in essence, the tjop is using a sql server to calculate whether one date occurs prior to another... it's so much worse than that when you get into it, but that's what is being achieved... it is a masterpiece...

Haha TDWTF is awesome :D
а плечьми буйство струйка. Дверь Твоем юдоли. Виновником неразлучен страшиться невинность милосердье сладчайший. Век под вне Оно Нет сия тук. Все вас совоздыхая устремится ком мню возблеснув разверзают лик мой сопрягаешь. Неправды но Ту светлеет Неправых Ни ум смотреть.
