I have a question about code page: how does it work between Broker Instanz, Broker DB Code Pages . Where are the Code Page Transformation ? Which are the best settings : use the same code page on DB as on Broker ?
the broker uses UCS-2 internally (16 bit Unicode) which you cannot
change. Any string coming from an external source whether it's an
MQ message or a DB table will be convert to UCS-2 on reading and
converted to the codepage of the external ressource on writing.
For outgoing MQ messages the MQMD.CodedCharSetId field controls
which codepage will be written.
Your DB may run in any codepage that can hold any language specific
characters which you require. Most anglo-european installations
work well with ISO8859-X or Unicode (e.g. Utf-.
The broker determines automatically which codepage the DB runs.
So if your DB is filled and read from the broker only you will have
no problems.
If you import data into your tables by external programs it is your
responsibility that the data is inserted in the correct codepage. _________________ Mathias Puetz
