RE: Sending Big5 through httpapi
Hi Scott,
Me again.
I try the following codes
C callp HTTP_SetCCSIDs(950:937)
C Eval W1SndMsg = X'4F5C'
C Eval Enc = HTTP_url_encoder_new()
C callp http_url_encoder_addvar(enc:
C 'msg':%addr(W1SndMsg):
C %len(%trimr(W1SndMsg)))
C callp http_url_encoder_getptr(enc: o_data: o_size)
C Eval URL = 'http://somewhere.com'
C + '/app/servlet/GenSendSM?'
C + 'acc=my_acc'
C + '&pwd=my_pwd'
C + '&msisdn=phone'
C + '&suffix=0'
C + '&req_sms_status=y'
C + '&'
C + http_url_encoder_getstr(enc)
The I get from debug for URL is
http://somewhere.com/app/servlet/GenSendSM?acc=my_acc&pwd=my_acc&msisdn=phone&suffix=0&req_sms_status=y&msg=%7C*
1. I don't know why I need to use the value 'msg' in calling http_url_encoder_addvar() instead of '&msg' and add back '&' in the URL string, but it works. Otherwise, the '&' will become '%26', like
http://somewhere.com/app/servlet/GenSendSM?acc=my_acc&pwd=my_acc&msisdn=phone&suffix=0&req_sms_status=y%26msg=%7C*
2. The value x'4F5C' become '7C*' seems half of '5C' byte is chopped as x'4F' is '7C' under CCSID 819
3. When I using STRCMNTRC to take a look of the bytes in the LAN card, it is 'translated' to UTF-8.
Could you let met know that your HTTPAPI is supporting big5 (double Chinese character) or not ?
Thanks

Dear Scott,
Thanks for your help.
Before I go to next steps as you suggested, I just want to make it clear what I want and where is the problem.
[Simply Description]
PC client (CCSID = 950) running Clinet Access and user input "我" (=x'A7DA') into AS400 running CCSID = 937, and AS400 store the value x'4F5C' in Physical File
[Objective]
A program is needed to send the x'4F5C' as stored in Physical File of AS400 to PC server running CCSID = 950 throuhg HTTP protocol as value x'A7DA' received in PC Sever side
[Problem]
When this program sent x'4F5C' to PC server, the server received as x'7C2A'
We find that this mapping follow mapping ISO-8859-1
The Answering from IBM is for CCSID in this case:
If I input an character "我" from Client Access with host-code page 937 to a physical file with CCSID 937, provided the Windows locale is Traditional Chinese (you may check by typing command "chcp" to get 950), you will yield 4F5C where you stored in iSeries. It is a correct.
And note 4F5C is EBCIDIC hex value. For CCSID 937, there is no character for EBCIDIC hex value for B5FE by default except you tailor-made one for it. Please see the screenshots that I captured from ICU site describing IBM-937. (http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/convexp)
Could you suggest the values used in http_setCCSIDs(remote:local)?
Ie. http_setCCSIDs(950:937)?
Regards

As I said in the previous message, you have to be running the current
*beta* version for HTTP_setCCSIDs() to work with the URL encoder.
You can retrieve the current beta here:
http://www.scottklement.com/httpapi/beta
You need to call the URL encoding routines to fill in the data. To call
them (remember, you need the *beta* for setCCSIDs to work) you should do
this:
a) Call http_setCCSIDs()
b) Call HTTP_url_encoder_new() or webform_open()
c) Call HTTP_url_encoder_addvar, http_url_encoder_addvar_s,
webform_setPtr, or webform_setvar for each variable
you wish to set in the URL
d) Call HTTP_url_encoder_getstr() or webform_getdta() to
retrieve the encoded data so you can add it to
your URI
e) Call http_url_encoder_free() or webform_close() to
clean up the memory used by the encoder.
