SE59305: RDI 9.1.0 Members in imported iProjects containing data encoded differently than in the SRC-PF member are displayed incorrectly

Rational Developer for i 9.1.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• A project was created from IBM i source members containing
  935-encoded data residing in 937-encoded SRC-PFs.  The
  937-935 mapping setting is enabled in the RSE connection which
  allows the members to display correctly in the Remote Systems
  Editor.  When the project is imported into another workspace the
  Remote Systems Editor has a sourceEncoding value of 937 instead
  of 935 and the Chinese characters are not displayed correctly.
  Shift characters appear in the wrong locations.  This is true
  for any other CCSID mapping as well.
  

Local fix

• Download the members again from RSE and they will appear
  correctly.

  containing
  935-encoded data residing in 937-encoded SRC-PFs and if the
  937-935 mapping setting is enabled in the RSE connection which
  allows the members to display correctly in the Remote Systems
  Editor then when the project is imported into another workspace
  the
  Remote Systems Editor has a sourceEncoding value of 937 instead
  of 935 and the Chinese characters are not displayed correctly.
