I don't know why 1.2 works and 1.3 doesn't.  Perhaps 1.3 is more sensitive 
to things?  However, I certainly wouldn't be running my job with 
CCSID(65535), it's not good practice.  That value is generally picked up 
from the QCCSID system value which really should be set to the appropriate 
CCSID for your base language (probably CCSID 37 given your email address).  
When your job has CCSID(65535) the system mostly uses your job's default 
CCSID (which is probably 37 anyway).

CCSID 819 is ISO Latin 1 which is the 'correct' CCSID for java source.  I 
wouldn't expect JAVAC to perform codepage conversion but perhaps 1.3 
doesn't like the job CCSID?

Simon Coulter.
