<div><p>The support for the <span class="q">"root"</span> (/) and QOpenSys file systems ensures
|
||
|
|
that the characters in object names remain constant across encoding schemes
|
||
|
|
used for different national languages and devices.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>When an object name is passed to the system, each character of
|
||
|
|
the name is converted to a 16-bit form in which all characters have a standard
|
||
|
|
coded representation.
|
||
|
|
When the name is used, it is converted to the proper coded form for the code
|
||
|
|
page being used.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>If the code page to which the name is being converted does not
|
||
|
|
contain a character used in a name, the name is rejected as not valid.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Because characters remain constant across code pages, you should
|
||
|
|
not do an operation on the assumption a particular character will change to
|
||
|
|
another particular character when a specific code page is used. For example,
|
||
|
|
you should not assume the number sign character will change to the pound sterling
|
||
|
|
character even though they may have the same coded representation in different
|
||
|
|
code pages.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Note that the names of the extended attributes of an object are
|
||
|
|
converted in the same way as the name of the object, so the same considerations
|
||
|
|
apply.</p>
