Research direction

Start by locating the JDBC Statement and query-parameter binding entry points for Date, Time, and Timestamp values. Review any existing binding or date-conversion tests, then verify that the three ISO-formatted examples are accepted and bound to the corresponding date types.

Description

Type: enhancement
Describe the enhancement requested

As a developer I want to be able to do query parameter/JDBC Statement binding for Date, Time and Timestamp date types using an iso formatted string. This will help enable the use of 3rd party tools that use ISO string formats for bindings.

Simple client use case example:

insertStatement.setString(1, "2025-08-14T15:53:00.000Z");
insertStatement.setString(2, "2025-04-01");
insertStatement.setString(3, "21:39:50");
