Re: XML-SAX *XML_EXCEPTION event and reported parsed length question

Carles,

unicode dosn't exist as a code page but it does exist in a varity of
encodings such as UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32

5250 supports either SBCS EBCDIC od DBCS UCS-2 - neither of them are
unicode or UTF even though there
are similarities between UCS-2 and UTF-16

The real showstopper is the ancient 5250 that only will be able to

​It's not 5250...5250 supports unicode. You just can't use a old 5250
terminal (emulator).

IBM i Access for the web has always supported unicode, as does the ​new
Access Client Solution.

The problem is a DB that only stores EBCDIC.
