Japanese Kanji/ Latin Mixed

Details of CCSIDs and CCSID conversion for Japanese Kanji/Latin Mixed.

Table 1. Native CCSIDs for Japanese Kanji/ Latin Mixed on supported platforms
Platform Native CCSIDs
IBM® i

z/OS®

 1399, 5035 (see Note 1)
AIX 932, 5050, 33722 (see Note 2)
HP-UX 932, 954, 5039 (see Note 3)
Windows 932, 943 (see Note 4)
HP Integrity NonStop Server

Linux

Solaris

 943, 5050
Note:
  1. 5035 is a CCSID related to code page 939
  2. 5050 and 33722 are CCSIDs related to base code page 954 on AIX. The CCSID reported by the operating system is 33722.
  3. Code sets japan15 and SJIS on HP-UX are represented by CCSID 932. These have a few DBCS characters having different representations in SJIS so 932 may be converted incorrectly if the conversion is not performed on an HP-UX system. IBM MQ for HP-UX supports 5039, the correct CCSID for HP SJIS. A change to file /var/mqm/conv/ccsid.tbl can be made to change the CCSID used from 932 to 5039.
  4. Windows NT uses code page 932 but this is best represented by the CCSID of 943. However, not all platforms of IBM MQ support this CCSID.

    On IBM MQ for Windows CCSID 932 is used to represent code page 932, but a change to file ../conv/table/ccsid.tbl can be made which changes the CCSID used to 943.

All platforms support conversion between their native CCSIDs and the native CCSIDs of other platforms, with the following exceptions.
