I thought timestamp storing the unix time stamp as

in mysql module, MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP is considered as integer value (so
expects the seconds) and MYSQL_TYPE_DATETIME is stored over a time_t by
converting from date-time string.
Yes, it appears that datetime and timestamp are stored differently
internally, but present the same format in SQL commands. That's good
news, and suggests we can convert columns between the two at will.
I would do some basic tests to see if it works - on
32b looks like being
ok. On 64b, the time_t is long int, iirc, so the sizes are different --
speaking of these, this mapping has to be reviewed anyhow, I will look
closer at it when I get a chance.
Thanks!
