GOAL:
Use of Multiple Codepages or Unicode on WebSpeed 3.1A & 3.1B
GOAL:
How does Webspeed 3.1A and 3.1B support multi-national languages?
GOAL:
Does Webspeed 3.1A support Unicode?
GOAL:
Does Webspeed 3.1B support Unicode?
FACT(s) (Environment):
WebSpeed 3.1A
WebSpeed 3.1B
FIX:
Up to version 3.1B, WebSpeed cannot run directly in Unicode. You cannot use -cpinternal UTF-8 with a WebSpeed agent.
Note that a WebSpeed agent can access a Unicode (UTF-8) database.
A WebSpeed configuration that includes either multi-national databases or a central Unicode database requires its own broker that you configure specifically for that language, using the appropriate -cpinternal, -cpstream, -cpterm startup parameters. Also you can specify its proper PROMSGS file and language specific parameters (-d, -E, etc..) for that language.
This is an example of a multiple code page WebSpeed configuration connecting to an Unicode database:
