The following topics discuss areas where Unicode characters are not supported and other issues in product usage.
Strings restricted to ASCII
Some string or text fields and values are restricted to 7-bit ASCII characters, excluding control characters, but including white space characters.
Naming conventions and limitations
Some characters are reserved for use as delimiters by the operating systems, INFORMIX, or Rational Synergy, and cannot be used in object names.
Unicode characters in passwords
Operating system restrictions require that you use only ASCII characters in passwords when using rexec to start a remote session from Windows to UNIX.
Date support
The Rational Synergy GUI supports a locale-appropriate
calendar view for date selection for Gregorian calendars only.
Keyword expansion
Keyword expansion does not occur in source files that are treated as binary because of the appearance of null bytes, Control-Z, or other non-printable characters.
