Name

showtrtab — display a translation table

Synopsis

showtrtab [-L logging_options][-s source_codepage][-t target_codepage][-q technique_str]
    

Description

This z/OS Co:Z utility command will show the translate table associated with a source and target codeset. It first attempts to use unicode services, but will fall back to iconv() if needed.

If a table cannot be built, the command will display error information that may be useful in determining the problem.

This utility only supports SBCS -> SBCS and SBCS -> MBCS. MBCS -> SBCS tables are not supported.

To get detailed information, the logging option -LTranslator=T can be used.

Options

-L logging-options

A comma-separated list of options to control logging and tracing:

M | A | C | E | W | N | I | D | T

Logging threshhold: eMergency, Alert, Critical, Error, Warning, Notice, Info (default), Debug, Trace.

t

Prefix log messages with a system timestamp

e

Include consumed cpu time in log messages

s

Messages are logged to SYSLOG facility instead of stderr

logname=M|A|C|E|W|N|I|D|T

Set a specific log name to the given threshold

-s source-codepage

The source codepage name. If not specified, then the default z/OS process codepage is used. At least one of -s or -t is required.

-t target-codepage

The target codepage name. If not specified, then the default z/OS process codepage is used. At least one of -s or -t is required.

-q technique-str

The Unicode Services conversion technique(s) to accept. This is a string of one or more of the following technique characters:

C

Customized Subset

E

Enforced Subset

L

Language Environment Behavior

M

Modified Language Environment Behavior

R

Roundtrip

If more than one character is specified, the first available matching technique is used - therefore the order is significant.

When falling back to iconv() this list is ignored

Examples

  1. This example shows a Translate table from a source code page of ISO8859-1 to a target codepage which is the current z/OS process' default
