Re: Locales and regular expressions

Hi, Tim:

What CCSID is the job running in?

Perhaps you could do something like this, in a CL "wrapper" ...
...
RTVJOBA CCSID(&CCSID)
CHGJOB JOB(*) CCSID(37) /* set to CCSID 37 temporarily */
CALL your-program-that-does-the-regex-stuff
CHGJOB JOB(*) CCSID(&CCSID) /* restore previous CCSID */
...

Perhaps you can run a quick experiment to see if that might help?

I've cross posted this to the C list but it doesn't get much traffic so
this question might get more of an audience here. I've been having
issues with using regular expressions (as in a sscanf function) where
the locale might vary. I've looked all over the ibm site but there's
very little with any definition on exactly what effect locales have on
expression statements. How do I locale protect my expressions?
