Generating a new code page converter
Generate a code page converter to handle conversions of data that belongs to a code page that is not in the default set of code pages that are provided by IBM® App Connect Enterprise.
Before you begin
- Read Code page converters, which provides information about what a code page converter is, and about the code pages that IBM App Connect Enterprise supports.
- If you apply a fix pack to IBM App Connect Enterprise that increases the ICU version, recompile the code page converters that are used by IBM App Connect Enterprise message flows or the DFDL parser. (The ICU version is listed in the fix pack document on the IBM Support site.)
About this task
Making a new code page converter
Procedure
Making the new code page converter available to IBM App Connect Enterprise message flows
Procedure
Making the new code page converter available to the DFDL parser
Before you begin
The DFDL component includes its own copy of the ICU libraries. This copy might be a different version level to those libraries used by IBM App Connect Enterprise. In this case, if the new code page is to be used for DFDL parsing, the new code page converter must also be copied into a specific location that can be accessed by DFDL. The DFDL component uses the environment variable ICU_DATA as a root location to search for convert tables. This environment variable should already have been set for you by running mqsiprofile.
