Enter a value indicating a Coded Character Set Identifier
(CCSID) to override your local code page identifier.
Use this setting if your platform has been updated for euro support, and
the CICS® Server
has euro support. For example, for Latin-1 countries, use a CCSID value of
858 to indicate that the code page 850 includes euro support. For code page
1252, specify a CCSID value of 5348.
Note: - Regardless of the value in the Code page identifier override setting, cicsterm always displays characters based on the local code page of the workstation.
- If you use the CCSID to change the code page identifier, data that is
already stored on the server might be modified when retrieved by the CICS Universal Client,
if it includes characters for which the code points produce different characters.
- You do not have to supply a CCSID, because you can use the Use OEM code page setting
to provide support for euro enabled code pages. Any value that you enter in
the Code page identifier override field
overrides the code page value generated using the Use OEM code page setting.
You might do this, for example, to switch back to code page 850 or 1252 to
indicate to the CICS server
that the euro should not be used.
For details of the corresponding entry in the configuration
file, see CCSID (CLIENT section of the configuration file).
