CCSID

For connection factories, this property specifies the coded character set ID (CCSID) to be used for internal data flows with the queue manager. The CCSID controls how data is encoded in the communication flow to the queue manager for character data types, such as the channel name and queue manager name. As these flows use fixed width data structures, the specified CCSID value must be a single byte character set in order to be able to use the maximum permitted field lengths. For destinations, the property defines the CCSID to be used to encode string data in MapMessages, StreamMessages, and TextMessages put to that destination.

Note: It is not normally necessary to change this property for connection factories.
