The IBM Toolbox for Java is shipped with a set of conversion tables, named
according to CCSID. These tables are used internally by IBM Toolbox for Java
classes (such as CharConverter) when converting data that is transferred to
or from an i5/OS system. For example, the conversion table for
CCSID 1027 is in file com/ibm/as400/access/ConvTable1027.class.
Conversion tables for the following CCSIDs are included in the IBM Toolbox for
Java jar file; other encodings are supported using the JDK. The central server
on the system is no longer used to download tables at runtime. Any specified
CCSID for which a conversion table or a JDK encoding cannot be found will cause
an exception to be thrown. Some of these tables may be redundant to tables included
in your JDK. IBM Toolbox for Java presently supports the following 122 different
i5/OS CCSIDs.
For additional information about CCSIDs, including a complete list of the CCSIDs recognized by an i5/OS system, see the Globalization topic in the Information Center.
