Required output File In UTF -8 NO BOM format

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am Working with Idoc to File scenario.

Where the some of the data for the file will be in Chiniese.

So i used the file encoding parameters as GB18030 in file reciever.

But the legacy system to get process the format of the file should be UTF -8 NO BOM format.

So what encoding parameter should be used to get the output file in UTF -8 NO BOM and chiniese format.

Regards,

Manoj

The UTF-8 includes all chinese characters, so you can apply UTF-8 in receiver file adapter, that is enough.

What doues NO BOM mean?

this might be helfulll check........

Under File Encoding, specify a code page.

The default setting is to use the system code page that is specific to the configuration of the installed operating system. The file content is converted to the UTF-8 code page before it is sent.

Permitted values for the code page are the existing Charsets of the Java runtime. According to the SUN specification for the Java runtime, at least the following standard character sets must be supported:

■ US-ASCII

Seven-bit ASCII, also known as ISO646-US, or Basic Latin block of the Unicode character set

■ ISO-8859-1

ISO character set for Western European languages (Latin Alphabet No. 1), also known as ISO-LATIN-1

■ UTF-8

8-bit Unicode character format

■ UTF-16BE

16-bit Unicode character format, big-endian byte order

■ UTF-16LE

16-bit Unicode character format, little-endian byte order

■ UTF-16

16-bit Unicode character format, byte order
