*4 data. As of BS2000/OSD-BC V6.0, a new system behavior will

*4 therefore be introduced with which the default value of the CCS

*4 name of a file is determined.

*4 Note:

*4 ISO8859-x variants should not be used as a system or user

*4 character set since all programs in BS2000 assume that the

*4 data is provided with a so-called invariant EBCDIC core.

*4 Previous behavior:

*4 Up to BS2000/OSD-BC V6.0B, the BS2000 system always assigns the

*4 default *NONE for the CCS name of the file (CCS-Name=*NONE). If

*4 a different character set is used, the file attribute CCS name

*4 must be specified explicitly.

*4 Changed behavior:

*4 The two commands CREATE-FILE and MODIFY-FILE-ATTRIBUTES have

*4 been extended by the parameter *USER-DEFAULT that defines the

*4 default character set for the ID concerned.

*4 If it is not EDF03IRV, when a new file is now created the CCS

*4 name of the user entry of the destination pubset is taken over

*4 as the CCS name of the file. As previously, the file does not

*4 receive an entry for the CCS name (CCS-Name = *NONE) if EDF03IRV

*4 is in the user entry. The file attribute CCS name is included in

*4 the transfer when copying, saving and restoring files. The

*4 behavior of LMS has also been changed analogously when new

*4 elements are added. If a CCS name is not explicitly specified,

*4 they are assigned the CCS name of the library.

*4 There is therefore no change if the default system character set

*4 is used. If an 8 bit character set is selected, the code is

*4 clearly specified on the file and library element level via the

*4 CCS name. However, explicit specification of the character set

*4 always has priority.

*4 You will find further information on converting from 7 bit to 8 *4 bit character sets in the white paper under

*4 http://extranet.fujitsu-siemens.com/vil/pc/vil/bs2000

2.16.3 New ASTI Subsystem

*4 ASTI (Assistant for Service Task Integration) is implemented as

*4 a subsystem and provides support for the system developer when

*4 developing client / server applications. ASTI takes over the

*4 communication between client and server by forwarding the orders

*4 placed by the client to the server, receiving the feedback

*4 messages and managing both in internal ASTI wait queues. A

*4 server application must be started via ASTI to allow it to be

*4 managed by ASTI. It is also possible to specify for client

*4 orders whether recovery measures are to be initiated for the

*4 orders concerned if the server terminates prematurely.

*4 The ASTI functions are made available to the developer via a

*4 macro interface.

*4 ASTI is part of the BS2000/OSD basic configuration and is

*4 initially only released for internal use by BS2000 products.

*4 The first user of ASTI is the product interNet Services V3.2.

*4 The ASTI subsystem is started automatically when the system is

*4 booted.

*4 You will find a detailed description of ASTI in the file

*4 SYSRME.ASTI.010.E.
