Abstract
Support for the New Japanese Era (Reiwa) in IBM Host On-Demand.
Content
On April 30, 2019, the Japanese Heisei era will end and on May 1, a new era named Reiwa, will come into effect, reflecting a change to the Japanese imperial reign.
Besides the new era name, a new ligature (symbol) has also been defined representing the Reiwa era.
IBM Host On-Demand has been updated to handle the new ligature. Conversion tables (between EBCDIC and UNICODE) have been updated; however, the new ligature rendering is provided by the underlying JRE. The new “Reiwa” ligature will be supported by Host Code Pages 1399 & 1390 only.
Support for "Reiwa" will be available in a fixpack for V12 in 3Q 2019 and V13 in 4Q 2019. Interim fixes are available by contacting IBM Support.
This Flash will be updated with additional information as it becomes available. Please check back periodically.
