The IBM WebSphere Business Integration Adapter 2.0.1 release
provides an internationalized version of the C++ connector library.
This internationalized connector library enables you to develop
adapters that can be localized for many different locales (A locale
includes culture-specific conventions and a character code set.).
The structure of connectors has changed in the following ways to
accommodate locales:
- The connector framework now has a locale associated with it.
This locale is determined either from the operating system locale
or from configuration properties. The C++ connector library
provides the getEncoding() and getLocale()
methods in the GenGlobals class to access this information
from within the connector.
- A business object has a locale associated with it. This locale
is associated with the data in the business object, not with
the name of the business object definition or its attributes. The
C++ connector library provides the getLocale() method in
the BusinessObject class to obtain the name of this locale
from within the connector.
