Hi,
Queue manager (QM1) receives messages, having special charecters like '€', 'ß' and so on, from queue manager (QM2).
Queries:-
1) Now let me know what should be the ccsid value set for queue managers QM1 and QM2 such that it transfers / passes euro charecters properly.
2) While receving the message, what code changes we should make to handle the specified charecters above.
Please reply back asap.
Regards,
Sunil |

1. You do not say what language you want to use, nor on what operating system.
If it is English (Western European) on UNIX, 923 (ISO8859-15) is equivalent to 819 (ISO8859-1) and contains the euro symbol at character xA4.
If the second character is the German ligature for the letters sz (szlig), then it is also in 923 & 819 at character xDF.
2. That is entirely up to your application programmers.

We are making use of AIX operating system and the language used is English
the first character is the german Euro symbol. We are using CCSID as 1208 on both the queue managers.
the euro character is not getting parsed properly. It doesnt throw any parsing error. But instead it is displayed as '?'. Earlier we were using CCSId as 819 one the recieving queuemanager and parsing error was thrown.
what could be the reason for this?. |

We have run extensive tests with the euro symbol in our environment. Testing but WBIMB, MQ, and Oracle... One of the things we have noticed is that there is agreat deal of sensitivity around display of extended characters. UTF-8 etc....
Most of the time we have found that MQ and Databases are ok with handling these characters.. The problem is that many utilities used to look at messages will translate or display extended characters properly.
You greatest friend in this area is a byte dump of the mqseries message. amqsbcg...
Also it is much better to avoid extended characters and utilize markups such as those outlined in ISO 4217. |
