QDCXLATE not working as expected

Hi,

i tried to convert some EBCDIC data to ASCII. I tried to use QDCXLATE and the code looks like this:


D translate PR extpgm('QDCXLATE')
D length 5P 0 const
D data 32766A options(*varsize)
D table 10A const


D string S 100A

/free
string = '{ "Test" : true }';

translate(%size(string) : string : 'QASCII');

*inlr = *on;
return;
/end-free


I would have expected to see something like this in hex:
7B202254 65737422 203A2074 72756520 7D202020

But i got this in hex:
A2202254 65737422 203A2074 72756520 F0202020

The starting and ending curly braces are not correctly translated to ASCII.
{ = 7B and not A2
} = 7D and not F0

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanx in advance
