Unicode and Encoding Checklist
When preparing to work with Unicode and other encoded data, there are several requirements to consider before you begin:
• Database configuration: Your server, client, and database must be configured to use the correct character set.
• The field data types must support Unicode or your encoding type.
• Determine the encoding of your data files or tables. For instance, is the encoding UTF-8, ASCII, or UTF-16?.
• Install drivers that support the data encoding type.
• Keep in mind that the integration platform supports the Unicode 10.0 standard on Windows and Unicode 11 on Linux/AIX.
• Install the following items that are required for your data format:
– Language sets
– Character sets
For more information on installing these required items, see the sections below.
Note: In order to work with components in the Process window, you must choose a regional language setting.
