Unicode Client Communications
Client/server data flow has be reworked to support unicode data.
Overview
Initially, Only the Java Client will communicate using unicode data. The Win32 and Character clients will not support unicode data at this time.
- Client and Server exchange all alpha data as UTF-8
- Client transcodes received data from UTF-8 to UTF-32
- Client transcodes sent data from UTF-32 to UTF-8
- Server transcodes received data from UTF-8 to the single-byte encoding (8859-15) for RAW fields or UTF-32 as appropriate
- Server transcodes sent data from the internal single-byte encoding (8859-15) for RAW fields or UTF-32 to UTF-8.
