What happened?
NullString.Scan didn't accept a time.Time value:
error: unsupported driver -> Scan pair: time.Time -> *string
What should have happened instead?
It should have converted the time.Time value into a string, just it does with any other
type that Scan accepts.
Please provide any additional information below.
The contract for Scanner says:
// Scan assigns a value from a database driver.
//
// The src value will be of one of the following restricted
// set of types:
//
// int64
// float64
// bool
// []byte
// string
// time.Time
// nil - for NULL values
//
// An error should be returned if the value can not be stored
// without loss of information.
Scan(src interface{}) error
All of the other types work by formatting the values as strings. Given that time.Time
has a String() function, I would assume it would be handled as well.
