|
|
<div><p>Character representation in the server is controlled by the following
|
||
|
|
elements of the Character Data Representation Architecture (CDRA).</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>CDRA identifies characters by encoding scheme identifier
|
||
|
|
(ESid), character set, pairs of character sets and code pages (as needed),
|
||
|
|
and additional coding-related information (as necessary). This identification
|
||
|
|
is established by a system of tags. The tags are handled by i5/OS™ in a way
|
||
|
|
that ensures character set integrity.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The overall objective of CDRA is to define a method of assigning and preserving
|
||
|
|
the meaning of coded graphic characters through various stages of processing
|
||
|
|
and interchanging.</p>

The Character Data Representation Architecture (CDRA) system of tags uses an encoding scheme to specify many rules.</li>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbagschardataintegrity.htm">Character data integrity</a></strong><br />
|
||
|
|
The Character Data Representation Architecture (CDRA) system of tags uses coded character set identifiers (CCSIDs) to maintain data integrity when character data is passed from system to system or from user to user. CCSIDs assign a value that uniquely identifies the coded graphic character representation used for character data.</li>
