We have developed a webservice having CICS as the HTTP SERVER.
This Webservice takes the input JSON (which has both English and Chinese characters) and this JSON will be converted to MF copybook. This copybook data is then stored in the DB.
We are using this proc - DFHJS2LS to enable webservices in Mainframe.
In this Proc, we have these parameters to handle the unicode.
CCSID=1200
CHAR-MULTIPLIER=2
CHAR-MULTIPLIER=2
The issue what we face now s on the chinese characters. The chinese characters which we pass in JSON are not getting converted properly and they are getting corrupted.
DB values which are getting stored is also corrupted.
For example, if we pass this in request (Harry市), this is what we get as response (Harryå¸).
sample DB value shared for your reference:
DB value stored = DAVE34å
hex value of DB value:
00440041005600450033003400E500B800820020002000200020
Expected value = DAVE34市
hex value of expected value:
444156453334E5B882
Your inputs are much appreciated in addressing this DBCS/unicode/chinese character issue.
