Re: EBCIDC to ASCII table references?

[Bruce Vining <bvining@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Brad,

Forget tables and use the CCSID support found in i5/OS.

To find an appropriate ASCII CCSID go to the V5R3 Information Center and
Programming/Globalization/Reference/CCSIDs/Associated CCSID values will
tell you given an input CCSID what is an appropriate ASCII/Windows/etc
CCSID.  The table used encoding schemes to identify the type of desired
encoding and these can be found under .../CCSIDs/Encoding schemes for
CCSIDs.  So if you have 1026 and want ISO you would look for encoding
scheme 4100 and find that the corresponding CCSID is 920.  Alternatively if
you want a Windows code page (encoding scheme 4105) you might want to use
CCSID 1254.

And if you would prefer an API to give you this information see Get Related
Default CCSID (QTQGRDC) under Programming/APIs/APIs by category/National
Language Support/CDRA APIs

Does anyone know where I may be able to find EBCDIC to
ASCII conversion table referneces (specifically dealing
with code pages)?

For example, lets say I'm using 1026 (turkish) EBCDIC code
page on my machine.  How would I find the ASCII code page
to use when I am creating IFS data?
