Error description
APAR Error Description: Abstract: In Rational Developer for System z (RDz) version 8.0.3.2, even though Cp943 is set for the encoding of the local folder and the local codepage of the member, transferring a file from the host to client z/OS project by drag?drop results in an encoding of the copied local file set to MS932 (Cp932). Problem: 1. Set the host codepage and local codepage to IBM-930 and Cp943 in the Remote System view: - right-clicking MVS File ? Properties and select the appropriate codepages in the listboxes 2. Create a local project by selecting the Workstation COBOL folder type ? COBOL sample 1. Then add a folder 'Source'. 3. Create a zOS project, MVS subproject and a partitioned dataset and add a sample COBOL file. 4. In zOS project perspective select a COBOL file in a MVS subproject. Notice that the properties view below shows that the host and local codepages are now exactly as you set in step 1. 5. Drag the COBOL file in zOS project view to the local project's 'Source' folder. Then right-click on the local COBOL file and select Properties. You will notice that the Other radio button is selected and says MS932 instead of Cp943. Radio button is editable. This means that the Japanese file contents will not display correctly. Local fix: Use copy/paste instead of drag?drop
Local fix
Problem summary
When a member whose local codepage was Cp943 was copied to a local projects, its encoding was set to MS932.
Problem conclusion
The client was fixed to set the text encoding of the local file properly when the codepage of a copied member had Cp943. The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with IBM Rational Developer for System z V8.0.3.3 Fix Pack which is available from the Recommended Fixes support download page: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=2294&uid=swg27006335
