OSCodeSetConversion

The OSCodeSetConversion configuration property enables or disables Open Server code page conversion.

Syntax

OSCodeSetConversion= [no | yes]

Warning! The OSCodeSetConversion configuration property value must be set to yes if client code page is different than the Open Server and DirectConnect server’s operating system code page.

Default

Values

yes – enables Open Server to convert client code page to Open Server code page that must match the operating system code page.
no – disables Open Server code page conversion between the DirectConnect server and the client.

Comment

Most ECDA products perform a single code page translation from the target database management system (DBMS) code page to the client code page. However, the Microsoft Windows UDB DB2, and Microsoft SQL Server products convert the target DBMS code page to the DirectConnect server (platform) code page, potentially requiring an additional code page translation between the server and the client.
