Error description

  • RTC 366092 2/7/2013
    MAH/MAH
    
    EXTDTA display window in External Browser and Interchange
    Browser showing garbage characters, not the true contents of
    the .INT file
    

Local fix

  • no workaround available from the UI
    

Problem summary

  • The 5.3.1 Interchange Browser and External Data Browser are not
    displaying external data correctly for
    outbound interchanges.  Only 1 or 2 bytes of garbage is
    displayed instead of the actual contents of the .int file.
    

Problem conclusion

  • When the contents of the .int file was being read into a temp
    buffer, the data type conversion wasn't being
    done properly.  Fixed.
    

Temporary fix
