2.2.4 Encoding used in JP1/Advanced Shell

You must code job definition script files and environment files used in JP1/Advanced Shell using the encoding that matches the value of the LANG environment variable in the environment in which JP1/Advanced Shell is run. If a different encoding is used, operation cannot be guaranteed. If you will execute the same job definition script file on different OSs, use an encoding that is supported by all the OSs to be used.

In UNIX, the language and encoding in which messages are output by JP1/Advanced Shell are determined by the value of the LANG environment variable.

The following table shows the values of the LANG environment variable and the encodings for job definition script files and environment files that are specified when JP1/Advanced Shell is used.

Table 2‒10: Encodings corresponding to the LANG environment variable values

OS	Value of LANG environment variable	Encoding for job definition script files and environment files
Windows	--	Shift-JIS
Linux	ja_JP.UTF-8	UTF-8
AIX	Ja_JP ja_JP JA_JP JA_JP.UTF-8	Shift-JIS EUC UTF-8 UTF-8
HP-UX	ja_JP.SJIS ja_JP.eucJP ja_JP.utf8	Shift-JIS EUC UTF-8
Solaris	ja_JP.PCK ja ja_JP.UTF-8	Shift-JIS EUC UTF-8
