Error description
C/370 iconv() converters between Host (OS/390) Japanese coded character sets, IBM-930 and IBM-939, and TCP/IP Japanese coded character sets IBM-956, IBM-957, IBM-958, IBM-959, IBM-5052, IBM-5053, IBM-5054, and IBM-5055 are required for support of Japanese character transmission through the internet.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users attaching OS/390 to a network in * * which ISO-2022-JP encoding of Japanese * * characters is used. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Japanese OS/390 systems are configured * * for IBM-930 or IBM-939 (Host) encoding * * of Japanese characters. If ISO-2022_JP * * encoding is used to send Japanese * * characters through the network, then * * OS/390 services must be available to * * convert between Host and ISO-2022-JP * * encoding schemes. * * * * Without this APAR such services are * * not available to open OS/390 * * applications which use the XPG4 * * family of iconv interfaces to request * * character encoding conversion. This * * APAR adds support to iconv for * * converting between Host encoding and * * ISO-2022-JP encoding of Japanese * * characters. * * * * It also adds support to OS/390 iconv * * for conversion of IBM-5052 encoding * * of Japanese characters and Host * * (IBM-930 or IBM-939) encoding. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Addition of support to the OS/390 XPG4 family of iconv interfaces for conversion between Host (IBM-930 or IBM-939) encoding of Japanese characters and network (ISO-2022-JP or IBM-5052) encoding of Japanese characters is required.
