Good day,

I managed to launch my program in ACUTHIN and Chinese character can be enter and saved in database. But when I view it on AcuToWeb, it appears that it cannot recognize the Unicode characters. How to solve it?

In your runtime configuration file, what value do have for COBOL_CHARACTER_SET ?

Hi Shejerpe, where's to browse the configuration file?

To set up Acuthin, you made an alias, an alias consists of alias name (lrtcool), a working directory C:\\lrtcoolman), and a command line, such as -c C:\\lrtcoolman\\myconfig my-best-application.acu .. the myconfig in C:\\lrtcoolman\\myconfig is the runtime configuration file. We work with some customers in Taiwan, they set COBOL_CHARACTER_SET 65001 in their runtime configuration file. The code Page 65001 is equivalent to UTF-8 - or Double byte characters. Which CODE Page did you use when you entered your Chinese character data into the database?

oic.. I am running client - server architecture and host acuconnect, runtime is at server side.

Client side, via acuthin with argument <host> <port> <config file> <logging> <alias>
currently is
acuthin.exe 128.0.0.200:5050 -c /etc/sys01.cfg -le /r/sys01.log -d ALIAS

In the sys01.cfg is running default settings as acurcl.cfg ... doesn't have the variable COBOL_CHARACTER_SET ... and I manage to run my program correctly and able to save and display UNICODE (Chinese PRC).

But it cannot be proceed and identify the UNICODE when I run program via AcuToWeb using browser.

Can you post the settings you have in sys01.cfg .. these should be runtime variables, which are different from acurcl.cfg settings. Typically to use Chinese with the runtime or acuthin you would set CODE_SYSTEM BIG5 as typically the Asian characters are double byte. When you go to AcuToWeb, you should set COBOL_CHARACTER_SET, I would try COBOL_CHARACTER_SET 936 - as 936 is the Microsoft Code Page for Simplified Chinese or COBOL_CHARACTER_SET UTF-8 and then see how your data displays

Thanks Shjerpe .. It's working.
Correct, I couldn't run with COBOL_CHARACTER_SET 65001 or COBOL_CHARACTER_SET UTF-8.
Should be set to COBOL_CHARACTER_SET 936 ... and that's support Chinese Simplified PRC / GB2313.

So, the configuration file will append to the alias and for specific program.

But Shjerpe .. one thing.
After I had set the variable to detect UNICODE, web application takes longer time to load and sometimes it doesn't load. If i revert back settings without declare the variable, the web application load simply fast.

The introduction of Unicode does make it where the runtime loads Unicode fonts. Since there are about 65000 of these it takes an app longer to initialize when using Unicode (this delay should not be prolonged - just a few seconds). If your application fails to load, or is taking a long time to load, please send that example to Customer Care so we can sort it out.

Hi Shejerpe, I having an issue to input Myanmar (Burmese) Character in COBOL ACUTHIN 10.1 Runtime.
Some character show space & some character can show but font size is very small.
I have tested COBOL_CHARACTER_SET UTF-8, 65001, UTF-16
Any idea?

Thanks

Myanmar has a few different web articles (based on a Google search).http://www.myanmarbible.com/bible/unicode.html

 There does not appear to be a specific code page for Myanmar or Burmese msdn.microsoft.com/.../DD317756(V=VS.85).ASPX

 So far, everything I've read points to code page 1252 which is the basic Latin characters.

Hi Shejerpe,

Thanks for Your reply
I have try to install Myanmar 3 font on Windows 10 PC & Set COBOL_CHARACTER_SET 1252 in Conf file.

I'm able to input Myanmar Character on MS Word but still no changes on Acucobol 10.1 runtime.
Some character show space & some character can show but font size is very small.
Any other idea?

No, not that I know of. While you can download this font and have Windows use it, the COBOL_CHARACTER_SET needs to point to a codepage, and currently there is no codepage for Myanmar or Burmese.
