Support for globalization

The adapter is globalized to support single and multibyte character sets and deliver message text in the specified language.


Introduction

Globalized software applications are designed and developed for use within multiple linguistic and cultural environments rather than a single environment. WebSphere Adapters, IBM Integration Designer, IBM BPM, and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus are written in Java™. The Java runtime environment within the Java virtual machine (JVM) represents data in the Unicode character code set. Unicode contains encoding for characters in most known character code sets (both single and multibyte). Therefore, when data is transferred between these integration system components, there is no need for character conversion.

To log error and informational messages in the appropriate language and for the appropriate country or region, the adapter uses the locale of the system on which it is running.

The adapter supports globalization for business objects and adapter foundation classes (AFC) related properties.
