If you are running a programmable workstation using host emulation
software, you must:
- Remap the hexadecimal values for the variant characters. Remapping
will send the values that are correct for the installed z/OS® XL C/C++ compiler
to the host system. For instructions, see Specifying the appropriate code page for the compiler.
- Ensure that your current keyboard input generates the hexadecimal
values that are expected by the z/OS XL C/C++ compiler and its library. For
instructions, see Testing the display of variant characters.
- Enable your ISPF editor to support local use of variant characters.
For instructions, see Inserting and viewing square brackets during an ISPF edit session.
Note: See
LOCALE|NOLOCALE and
other appropriate sections in
z/OS XL C/C++ User's Guide for information
on the option and the list of IBM-supported locales available for
use at compile time or run time. The default C locale is supported
by code page IBM-1047; therefore the default encoding of variant characters
is as shown in
Figure 1. Consult your system programmer
for the coded character set that your installation uses.
