Create CharacterToUnicodeMap object from EBCDIC codepage (CharacterToUnicodeMap class)
[Introduced in Sirius Mods 8.0]
This method lets you dynamically select a particular codepage for specific data without
having to change your system-wide codepage.
Syntax
%characterToUnicodeMap = [%(CharacterToUnicodeMap):]NewFromEbcdicCodepage[( [codepageName])]
Syntax terms
| %outCharacterToUnicodeMap | A CharacterToUnicodeMap object. |
|---|---|
| [%(CharacterToUnicodeMap)] | The optional class name in parentheses denotes a virtual constructor. See "Usage notes", below, for more information about invoking a virtual constructor. |
| codepageName | A string that identifies one of the currently supported codepages at your site. You can view (and manage) these codepages with the UNICODE command. |
Usage notes
- NewFromEbcdicCodepage is a virtual constructor and as such can be called with no method object, with an explicit class name, or with an object variable, even if that object is null:
%charToUmap = newFromEbcdicCodepage('0037EXT') %charToUmap = %(CharacterToUnicodeMap):newFromEbcdicCodepage('0037EXT') %charToUmap = %charToUmap:newFromEbcdicCodepage('0037EXT')
Examples
%tr = newFromEbcdicCodepage('0285EXT') %u = ('12345678'):characterToUnicode(%tr)
