Standard conversion between EBCDIC code and Unicode for EIS partners of type CICS

In most cases you do not need to deal with conversion from 1-byte code to Unicode and vice versa as BeanConnect performs conversion automatically in accordance with the standard JDK code table Cp1047.

Code conversion takes place automatically when the following requirements are met:

• The value true is specified in the configuration property encodingActive.

• Strings are used for communication.

• The connection URL is of type cics://

If the Java program is to receive the 1-byte data stream unconverted, byte arrays must be used instead of strings.
