Error description
Building a custom codepage converter for ACE requires using ICU command line tools. These are not included in the base ACE distribution. Currently the documentation page "Generating a new code page converter" instructs customers to download and build ICU manually. Customers can instead request an ifix for defect 87363 from IBM Support which includes the correct command line tools for their ACE fix pack.
