Use DBCS CCSIDs for DBCS languages. When you design
an application to be used in the DBCS environment, consider this information.
- If the QIGC system value is set on, system value QCCSID must have the
value of a mixed CCSID.
- If the DBCS and SBCS language users are sharing the same system, they
may want to store their data in different databases. It is possible to create
DBCS-capable and SBCS-capable physical files in the same system. The CCSID
parameter on the CRTPF command or the CCSID keyword on the physical file DDS
definition can be used to specify the CCSID value that the data is stored
in.
- If a CCSID was not explicitly assigned through DDS at file creation time,
the database physical file character J (DBCS-only), E (DBCS-either), O (DBCS-open)
or G (DBCS-graphic) fields are implicitly assigned a CCSID value.
