RE: [dsdp-tm-dev] SSH transport to z/OS mainframe - Codepage IBM1047(EBCDIC)
|
DStore does codepage conversion. It should not be too hard
to implement your own subclass of SftpFileSubSystem, to add the codepage
conversion facility from dstore.

I've been dabbling at pointing RSE to
a z/OS system and have two fundamental issues. The FTP transport type is
failing for both Unix (USS/OMVS) and the legacy files. It appears to me that
the FTP parser is not handling the format of listed files returned, and
looking at the code, the regex for MVS would not appear right to me at all. I
can live without the FTP transport if I have to as it's not my preferred, and
I'm willing to wait and see if using Galileo changes this.
My other problem is with the SSH
transport and is more important to me and not likely to change with the next
release. The files transfer just fine using SSH, but are stored on z/OS UNIX
as ASCII (or more accurately, without performing codepage conversion).
I've been poking around trying to see if and when codepage conversion
occurs under SSH, and found and contributed to this link:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=14265284&
The synopsis: The desire is to have
a text file on z/OS be in EBCDIC and be converted by the transport as it is
retrieved and stored. This makes the file accessible to text editors on
the z/OS platform, and is the assumed codepage for text files for tools that
have been ported to the mainframe. The SSH transfer works, but appears to me
to always be BINARY. The belief is that a code page attribute can be
assigned in the properties of a file or directory, specifically, that you can
use values not presented in the drop down simply by overtyping the field with
a new code page identifier. The ability to set the remote file's code page
attribute as known by Eclipse to a value not listed does not work for me, in
spite of evidence to the contrary that it's working for others.
Any suggestions?
