Hello all,

 

I am using “QSYS2.IFS_WRITE_UTF8” to generate a UTF8 Output file.

 

So far so good … I have data with Polish special characters that must be sent with correct CCSID (870)



I use 

 

EXEC SQL     SET :chr870  = CAST(:myData AS CHAR(100) CCSID 870) to convert my data to CCSID 870 but when I write 

To my output file the special characters are not written correctly.

 

Any ides on how to write these special characters to UTF8 without losing the code page …

I have tried a few things but no success yet…  I am hoping the CCSID guru’s out there have a few ideas for me.



 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards / Bien à vous,

 

Sean
