Spring Data JPA How to pass a date parameter

Question

I'm working in a spring MVC project and spring data with spring tools suite, I want to pass a date argument to a native query, I have this so far.

My query method inside a interface that extends JpaRepository

 @Query(value  = 
            "SELECT "
                + "a.name, a.lastname
            + "FROM "
                + "person  a, "
                + "myTable b "
            + "WHERE "
            + "a.name= ?1' "
            + "AND a.birthday = ?2 ",
         nativeQuery = true)
    public ArrayList<Object> personInfo(String name, String dateBirthDay);

The method that implements this interface definition:

public ArrayList<Object> getPersonsList(String name, String dateBirthDay) {

            ArrayList<Object> results= null;

            results= serviceAutowiredVariable.personInfo(name, dateBirthDay);

            return results;
        }

and this is how I call it from my controller class.

personsList= _serviceAutowiredVariable.getPersonsList("Jack", "TO_DATE('01-08-2013', 'DD-MM-YYYY')" );

I suppose that in this line "AND a.birthday = ?2 " the ?2is equals to this string TO_DATE('01-08-2013', 'DD-MM-YYYY')

but I am getting this error when I run my code

    [Request processing failed; nested exception is org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaSystemException: org.hibernate.exception.DataException: could not extract ResultSet; nested exception is javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.DataException: could not extract ResultSet] root cause

You can use such construction:

import org.springframework.data.repository.query.Param;
...

@Query(value  = 
    " SELECT a.id, a.lastname FROM person a" + 
    " WHERE a.name = :name AND a.birthday = :date ", nativeQuery = true)
public List<Object[]> getPersonInfo(
    @Param("name") String name, 
    @Param("date") Date date);
