Re: DBCS and the IFS -- MIDRANGE-L

Traditional Chinese DBCS iSeries CCSID: 937

mapping to client ASCII is 950. You need change IFS ccsid by CHGATRchange IFS STMF ccsid to 950.

When you use FTP to put binary file to iSeries the default iSeriesCCSID is 819, but if you use quote type c 950, you will get ccsid 950 STMF.When you copy file from PC to iSeries under NetServer share or usingsamba client copy pc shared file from iSeries, you will get ccsid 1208or 1252. You also need manual changet to STMF 950.



Best regards,

Brad,

If you have Chinese characters that you are attempting to convert then 937is the better way to go. 1175 is a proper subset of the characters foundin CCSID 37 (CHRID 697 37) and contains no Traditional Chinese characters.937 contains the 1175 character set plus the DBCS 935 character set. Youwill also want to convert to a CCSID other than 819 as that's just ISOLatin 1 (again no Traditional Chinese).

Thanks Bruce.

It shows the CCSID to use for ASCII (if I'm reading it
right) is 819, but there seems to be some traditional
chinese characters that don't get converted properly from
EBCDIC to ASCII.

Brad,

If you go to the V5R4 Information Center and search on

1175 you will findthat 1175 is the default CHRID for the English Upper andLower Case DBCSNLV (2984) and the SBCS CHRID for CCSID 937 (Traditional

Chinese).

DBCS and the IFS






I am working with a customer who is running QCHRID 1175
and
having problems with DBCS conversion from EBCDIC to ASCII
while writing to the IFS.

I can normally find what CCSID to use in the conversion
in
the IBM documentation, but in this case I find little
mention of this CHRID in any tables.

Anyone familiar?  I believe it's a traditional Chinese
character set.

Thanks!
