<h1 class="topictitle1">Change alphanumeric programs to DBCS programs</h1>
|
|
<div><p>If an alphanumeric application program uses externally described
|
|
files, you can change that application program to a DBCS application program
|
|
by changing the externally described files.</p>
|
|
<div class="section">To convert an application program, follow these steps:</div>
|
|
<ol><li><span>Create a duplicate copy of the source statements for the alphanumeric
|
|
file that you want to change.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Change alphanumeric constants and literals to double-byte constants
|
|
and literals.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Change fields in the file to the open (O) data type or specify
|
|
the Alternative Data Type (IGCALTTYP) DDS keyword so that you can enter both
|
|
double-byte and alphanumeric data in these fields. You might
|
|
want to change the length of the fields as the double-byte data takes more
|
|
space.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Store the converted file in a separate library. Give the file the
|
|
same name as its alphanumeric version.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>When you want to use the changed file in a job, change the library
|
|
list, using the Change Library List (CHGLIBL) command, for the job in which
|
|
the file is used. The library in which the DBCS display file is stored is
|
|
then checked before the library in which the alphanumeric version of the file
|
|
is stored.</span></li>
