Hi there,

I am trying to invoke an Oracle stored procedure from a msgflow using ESQL. The oracle's CCSID is ISO8859-8:
Code:

SELECT VALUE FROM V$NLS_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';
VALUE = IW8ISO8859P8

After Calling the procedure I've noticed that the hebrew strings are returned as reversed '?' (spanish). My broker works UTF8 (1208).
I've tried casting the returned string to 916 but I receive an exception
Quote:
BIP2136 Source character "bf00" in field ... cannot be converted from Unicode to codepage '916'.


Here is my ESQL code:
Code:

CREATE PROCEDURE merchantDetailsLevel1(IN parm CHAR, OUT parmOut CHAR, OUT returnCode FLOAT)
LANGUAGE DATABASE
EXTERNAL NAME "sapmainp.pk_check_pirtei_isra_ishur.pr_netunei_isra_ishur";

CREATE COMPUTE MODULE testSPFlow_Compute
   CREATE FUNCTION Main() RETURNS BOOLEAN
   BEGIN
      CALL CopyMessageHeaders();
      
      DECLARE merchantRet CHARACTER;
      DECLARE returnCode FLOAT;
      
      CALL merchantDetailsLevel1(InputBody.parm, merchantRet, returnCode);
      
      SET OutputRoot.XMLNSC.parmOut = CAST(CAST(merchantRet AS BLOB CCSID 916) AS CHARACTER CCSID 1208);
      
      RETURN TRUE;
   END;

   CREATE PROCEDURE CopyMessageHeaders() BEGIN
      DECLARE I INTEGER 1;
      DECLARE J INTEGER;
      SET J = CARDINALITY(InputRoot.*[]);
      WHILE I < J DO
         SET OutputRoot.*[I] = InputRoot.*[I];
         SET I = I + 1;
      END WHILE;
   END;

   CREATE PROCEDURE CopyEntireMessage() BEGIN
      SET OutputRoot = InputRoot;
   END;
END MODULE;


Have I missed some configuration? Is there an ODBC parameter I need to set?

I've searched the forums before posting and found this similar unanswered post: http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=193704&sid=f4b3889a26f1d923c725451948ccaec2

I'd appreciate any ideas,
Alik

After numerous attempts I managed to solve it.
I changed the procedure declaration to return a BLOB variable and casted the BLOB to CHARACTER:
Code:

CREATE PROCEDURE merchantDetailsLevel1(IN parm CHAR, OUT parmOut BLOB, OUT returnCode FLOAT)
LANGUAGE DATABASE
EXTERNAL NAME "sapmainp.pk_check_pirtei_isra_ishur.pr_netunei_isra_ishur";
...
      DECLARE merchantRet BLOB;
      DECLARE returnCode FLOAT;
     
      CALL merchantDetailsLevel1(InputBody.parm, merchantRet, returnCode);
     
      SET OutputRoot.XMLNSC.parmOut = CAST(merchantRet AS CHARACTER CCSID 1208);
...


If anyone thinks of a better solution, I'd be glad to hear about it.

Thanks,
Alik

Looks about right. However if you are on Oracle 10g and above your database can be UTF-8 even though the OS is CCSID 819...

Have fun
