Attention: This feature is in Early Adopter Product (EAP) release status. We intend to provide the finalized feature in a future release. Please contact
Micro Focus SupportLine if you require further clarification.
The CICS Web Services feature is EAP for development and testing usage. It should not be used for production deployment in this product release.
Note: To complete this task, you must have administrator privileges to the
Enterprise Developer installation directory.
- In a Web browser, download the IBM CCSID tables (in
cdctables.zip) from
cdctables.zip to your
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\etc\ccsid (Windows) or
$COBDIR/etc/ccsid (UNIX) subdirectory.
- Use the
tabindex.txt file located in the
cdctables.zip file to identify the package number and filename for each CCSID table you need to install.
Note: CICS Web services support EBCDIC CCSID tables only. If your application is in ASCII and you want to convert EBCDIC tables to ASCII at runtime, see
To convert an EBCDIC CCSID to ASCII.
- For each table you want to install, as a subdirectory to the
ccsid directory, create a directory of the same name as the CCSID table filename as specified in the
tabindex.txt file.
- For each CCSID that you want to install, open its corresponding
Packagen.zip file (as specified in
tabindex.txt) and extract the files from the appropriate CCSID
.zip file to the corresponding directory you created in step
3.
For example, to install a CCSID table to convert Spanish to USA English, create a subdirectory under
ccsid named
011C01B5. Then extract the contents of
package4.zip\011C01B5.zip (Windows) or
package4.zip/011C01B5 (UNIX) to the
011C01B5 subdirectory.
