+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #51523 +++ LibreOffice does not support the SQL INTERVAL datatype. That is the datatype to store time *durations*, rather than a point in time (like DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP). Our embedded HSQLDB 1.8 also does not support it, but that is no reason not to support it cleanly when connecting to database backends that *do* support it. Places that need to be changed: 1) offapi/com/sun/star/sdbc/DataType.idl needs a value for INTERVAL 2) connectivity/inc/connectivity/FValue.hxx: class ORowSetValue needs to be adapted to handle values of that type. Also connectivity source/commontools/FValue.cxx and undoubtedly many other places, such as source/commontools/DateConversion.cxx, etc.
Changed status to "NEW"
adding LibreOffice developer list as CC to unresolved EasyHacks for better visibility. see e.g. http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/minutes-of-ESC-call-td4076214.html for details
Adding self to CC if not already on
Migrating Whiteboard tags to Keywords: (easyHack, difficultyInteresting, skillCpp, skillSql) [NinjaEdit]
JanI is default CC for Easy Hacks (Add Jan; remove LibreOffice Dev List from CC) [NinjaEdit]
Hi, I could not add INTERVAL selection to datatypes list. Because I could not find associated .ui file. How can i find? Can you help me? Thank you.

Before starting to change UI, it needs to be supported in the backend. See comment 0, "places that need to be changed". Did you do that already?

Yes, i changed in necessary places. But i am not sure. Because i still haven't find INTERVAL data type. Shall I commit my changes?
