<h1 class="topictitle1">DBCS sort tables</h1>
<div><p>DBCS sort tables contain the sort information and collating sequences
of all the double-byte characters used on the server. The server uses these
tables to sort double-byte characters using the sort utility.</p>
<div class="section"><p>DBCS sort tables are objects that you can save, restore and delete.
Using the character generator utility you can also add, delete and change
entries in these tables corresponding to the image entries in the DBCS font
tables. For Japanese use only, you can also copy the DBCS master sort table
to and from a data file.</p>

<p>You can sort Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and
Traditional Chinese double-byte characters. Each of these languages have two
DBCS sort tables, a DBCS master sort table and a DBCS active sort table, except
for Korean which has only a DBCS active sort table. The DBCS master sort table
contains sort information for all defined DBCS characters. The DBCS active
sort table for Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese is created
from the master sort table information and contains the collating sequences
for the double-byte characters of that given language. These collating sequences
have a purpose similar to the EBCDIC and ASCII collating sequences for the
single-byte alphanumeric character set. For Korean characters, the Hangeul
characters are assigned both their collating sequence as well as their DBCS
codes according to their pronunciation. Hence, a separate collating sequence
is not required, and each of the Hanja characters is mapped to a Hangeul character
of the same pronunciation using the DBCS active sort table QCGACTVK.</p>
<p>All
DBCS sort tables have an object type of *IGCSRT.</p>
