Version 8.2.2
 —  Adabas Vista Programming Guidelines  —

Using Adabas Vista with Unicode

Adabas Vista supports the use of Unicode using wide-character fields (format W).

Where session encoding overrides are used, Adabas Vista expects them to be identical across all databases used during a client session; otherwise, unpredictable results may occur.

Note:
If partitioned files are being used, Adabas Vista does not support the use of distributed access by a descriptor, subdescriptor or superdescriptor with format W whose client has overridden the Adabas file encoding for wide-character fields.

Note:
All partitions of a (partitioned) file must be used with the same encodings.
