在mysql中:
- timestamp列如果沒有顯式定義為null,默認會被設置為not null屬性。(其它的數據類型如果沒有顯式定義為not null,默認是可以為null的)。設置timestamp的列值為null,會自動存儲為當前timestamp
- 表中的第一個timestamp列,如果沒有定義為null、定義default值或者on update,會自動分配default current_timestamp和on update current_timestamp屬性
- 表中第一個timestamp列之后的所有timestamp列,如果沒有被定義為null、定義default值,會自動被指定默認值'0000-00-00 00:00:00'。在插入時,如果沒有指定這些列的值,會自動指定為'0000-00-00 00:00:00',且不會產生警告

從MySQL5.6.6這種默認設置的方法被廢棄了。在MySQL啟動時會出現以下警告:
1 [Warning] TIMESTAMP with implicit DEFAULT value is deprecated. 2 Please use --explicit_defaults_for_timestamp server option (see 3 documentation for more details).
要想取消該警告,在啟動mysql時,my.cnf中加入
1 [mysqld] 2 explicit_defaults_for_timestamp=true
修改該參數后,timestamp類型的列的處理方式也會發生變化:
- timestamp列如果沒有顯式定義為not null,則支持null屬性。設置timestamp的列值為null,就不會被設置為current timestamp
- 不會自動分配default current_timestamp和on update current_timestamp屬性,這些屬性必須顯式指定
- 聲明為not null且沒有顯式指定默認值是沒有默認值的。表中插入列,又沒有給timestamp列賦值時,如果是嚴格sql模式,會拋出一個錯誤;如果嚴格sql模式沒有啟用,該列會賦值為’0000-00-00 00:00:00′,同時出現一個警告。(這和mysql處理其它時間類型數據一樣,如datetime)
