File Content Encoding
To interoperate with other TIBCO ActiveEnterprise applications, you have to set plug-in configuration encoding for the repository correctly.
Content Encodings
The plug-in processes file contents with various encodings. This is provided as a configuration parameter for the file parser and file serializer activity.
The standard that TIBCO Active enterprise uses is LATIN_1 or ISO-8859-1 for exchanging LATIN_1 or ASCII data, and UTF-8 for other encoding such as SHIFT_JIS.
Depending on the file encoding setting for the plug-in configuration, the repository instance encoding has to be correctly set. The repository instance encoding determines whether the data is exchanged in LATIN_1 or UTF-8. The default repository encoding for local or the remote repository is LATIN_1 or ISO-8859-1. This confirms to the file encodings LATIN_1 and ASCII.
When processing other encoding such as SHIFT_JIS, the repository instance encoding must be set to UTF-8.
