Sets the designated parameter to the given java.sql.Date object. When the DBMS does not store time zone information, the driver will use the given Calendar object to construct the SQL DATE value to send to the database. With a Calendar object, the driver can calculate the date taking into account a custom time zone. If no Calendar object is specified, the driver uses the time zone of the Virtual Machine that is running the application.

The parameter value set by this method is stored internally and will be supplied as the appropriate parameter in this RowSet object's command when the method execute is called. Methods such as execute and populate must be provided in any class that extends this class and implements one or more of the standard JSR-114 RowSet interfaces.

NOTE: JdbcRowSet does not require the populate method as it is undefined in this class.

Calls made to the method getParams after this version of setDate has been called will return an array containing the parameter values that have been set. In that array, the element that represents the values set with this method will itself be an array. The first element of that array is the given java.sql.Date object. The second element is the value set for cal. The parameter number is indicated by an element's position in the array returned by the method getParams, with the first element being the value for the first placeholder parameter, the second element being the value for the second placeholder parameter, and so on. In other words, if the date being set is the value for the second placeholder parameter, the array containing it will be the second element in the array returned by getParams.

Note that because the numbering of elements in an array starts at zero, the array element that corresponds to placeholder parameter number parameterIndex is parameterIndex -1.

Parameters:

parameterIndex     the ordinal number of the placeholder parameter in this RowSet object's command that is to be set. The first parameter is 1, the second is 2, and so on; must be 1 or greater

x     a java.sql.Date object representing an SQL DATE value

cal     a java.util.Calendar object to use when when constructing the date

Exceptions:

SQLException if an error occurs or the parameter index is out of bounds

`parameterIndex`		the ordinal number of the placeholder parameter in this `RowSet` object's command that is to be set. The first parameter is 1, the second is 2, and so on; must be `1` or greater
`x`		a `java.sql.Date` object representing an SQL `DATE` value
`cal`		a `java.util.Calendar` object to use when when constructing the date
