• Have been modified to support UTF-16 better. The SQLDA<br />

from DESCRIBE is changed to accommodate the data type of<br />

each graphic column having <strong>CCSID</strong> 1200 as follows:<br />

GRAPHIC -> CHAR<br />

VARGRAPHIC <strong>and</strong> LONG VARGRAPHIC -> VARCHAR - DBCLOB -><br />

CLOB<br />

• During FETCH, DB2 converts all UTF-16 characters that can be<br />

mapped to the EBCDIC SBCS <strong>CCSID</strong>, <strong>and</strong> otherwise sets<br />

SQLCODE 0 with SQLWARNING flag 8 (a character that could<br />

not be converted was replaced with a substitute character).
