<h1 class="topictitle1">Index search and double-byte character set</h1>
|
|
<div><p>The index search function can be used with either double-byte character
|
|
set (DBCS) or single-byte character set (SBCS) data. When DBCS data is used,
|
|
the device from which it is requested must be capable of entering and presenting
|
|
the data in DBCS.</p>
|
|
<p>The object that contains the index search data is marked as containing
|
|
DBCS data. The system determines if the device is capable of handling the
|
|
DBCS data.</p>
|
|
<p>When the data is being prepared for DBCS format and the
|
|
index search function is used with that data, consider the following information:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>When the index search data is prepared for a DBCS system, the synonyms
|
|
entered on the ISCHSYN tag must be in double-byte character mode. That is,
|
|
the first byte after the tag must be a shift-out character and the last byte
|
|
of the data must be a shift-in character. The system does not convert data
|
|
on the ISCHSYN tag to double-byte character data.</li>
|
|
<li>Words must be separated by a single-byte blank. From 1 to 19 double-byte
|
|
characters can be combined to form a word. Intervening shift-out
|
|
and shift-in characters are allowed, but are ignored by index search.</li>
|
|
<li>The words that are used to link the ISCH and ISCHSYN tags (the ROOTS attribute
|
|
of the ISCH tag and the ROOT attribute of ISCHSYN tag) must be identical and
|
|
should not be entered in DBCS.</li>
|
|
<li>Search words can be entered in either single-byte mode or double-byte
|
|
mode. Single-byte blanks can be entered to separate the words.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>When the search words are shown on the screen, the double-byte character
|
|
representation (the character that was actually used in the search) is shown.
|
|
Special processing takes place so that index search is not case sensitive.
|
|
The search words from the ISCHSYN tag are converted to uppercase using a conversion
|
|
table for the code page that is specified with the TXTCHRID attribute of the
|
|
PNLGRP tag. If the search words are DBCS, they are not converted to uppercase.
|
|
Shift-out and shift-in characters are treated as blanks during parsing; leading
|
|
and trailing blanks are removed. All SBCS words are converted to uppercase
|
|
using a conversion table for the code page of the device description.</p>
