CCSID Mapping

You can specify a Coded Character Set Identifier (CCSID) per text field in File Manager® templates to specify how text data is represented in the field. This value is used when displaying the text data in the File Manager® editor. This preference page allows you to map from a CCSID to a corresponding Java encoding. The mapped Java encoding is used to display the text data while using the File Manager editor. If no CCSID is specified for a field, or no mapped Java encoding is found for the specified CCSID, then the editor uses the default encoding specified in the editor's options dialogue.
