Enabling support for bidirectional scripts
Bidirectional layout transformations
are implemented in DB2® for Linux, UNIX, and Windows using
the new Coded Character Set Identifier (CCSID) definitions. For the
new bidirectional-specific CCSIDs, layout transformations are performed
instead of, or in addition to, code page conversions. To use this
support, the DB2BIDI registry variable must be
set to YES.
