AW: RESTful Web Service and UTF-8

["Schmidt, Mihael" <Mihael.Schmidt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I figured it out (or at least I'm getting the results i need). The CCSID on the was wrong. The content from the web service comes in UTF-8 and the content of the output file in the IFS was stored in UTF-8 (or at least it seems so) but the CCSID on the file was 273. I changed it to 1208 and everything was fine.

Thanx

Mihael Schmidt

Hi,

I'm trying to consume a web service which sends data in its own format (REST style , i think). The data is coming in UTF-8. I have tried various things to receive the data using http_url_get. The procedure returns successfully but things like german umlaute or the euro sign are not displayed correctly (numbers and normal characters are displayed correctly).

I haven't had much to do with ccsids and character conversion so far so I am pretty much stuck.

I also tried: http_setCCSIDs(1208 : 273 : 1208 : 273);
and 
http_setFileCCSID(273);

before the http_url_get call but to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thanx in advance
