The XML Converters tab
allows you to specify identification attributes and character encodings.
This tab contains the following fields:
In the Specify identification attributes group:
Converter program name prefix
Type the stem of the program name that is included in the IDENTIFICATION
DIVISION of each generated COBOL program. If you type ACCT, for example,
the wizard identifies the input converter program as ACCTI, the output
converter program as ACCTO, and the driver as ACCTD.
Author name
Type the value to be included in the AUTHOR paragraph of each
generated COBOL program.
Service program name
Type the name of the existing application that you want the Web
service to invoke.
In the Specify character encodings group:
Request code page
Select the code page for encoding the XML input message.
Note:
In the Web Services for CICS® runtime environment, when
compiled conversion is selected, CICS performs
the conversion of the text between the code page used by the Web service
client and the code page used by the Web service.
In the other runtime environments, when compiled conversion is
used, the Web service client is responsible for the conversion between
its own code page and the code page used by the Web service.
Host code page
Select the code page for the z/OS® host
system.
Response code page
Select the code page for encoding the XML output
message. For One-way this is disabled.
Note:
In the Web Services for CICS runtime environment, when
compiled conversion is selected, CICS performs
the conversion of the text between the code page used by the Web service
client and the code page used by the Web service.
In the other runtime environments, when compiled conversion is
used, the Web service client is responsible for the conversion between
its own code page and the code page used by the Web service.
Bidi Options
Use the Bidi options button to invoke the Bidi conversion options window.
Note that the Bidi options button is disabled
for Host code page selections other than 420 Arabic or 424 Hebrew.
It becomes enabled if you select Host code page 420 Arabic or 424
Hebrew.
Based on the selection of a bidirectional language specific
code page for the host application (420 Arabic or 424 Hebrew), you
can choose any combination of the allowed attributes that describes
what type of transformation will be performed on the text data to
convert it from the Unicode-based (1208 UTF-8 or 1200 UTF-16) XML
data to the 420 Arabic or 424 Hebrew text (alphanumeric and alphabetic)
data items in COBOL or, inversely, from the COBOL text data items
to XML data in Unicode.
