Encoding Characters Euro Support Euro Support Euro (ISO 8859-15 Locales) [11.0 patch, 11i v1] Euro support is provided through locale support for the ISO 8859-15 character set. ISO 8859-15 is a newly ratified character set that differs from ISO 8859-1 by supporting eight new characters. Specific enhancements are provided to allow Euro display, input, and processing capabilities. Fourteen new locales, listed in Table 2-1, have been created based on ISO 8859-15.
Encoding Characters Euro Support For example, in the French locale, the thousands separator is a space and the decimal point is a comma. However, the international standard for the thousands separator for the euro currency is a period. A user who has the LC_MONETARY locale category set to fr_FR.iso885915@euro sees the following: • The number one thousand five hundred and fifty and a half, outside the monetary area, displays as 1 550,50.
Encoding Characters Euro Support Euro - ISO 10646/Unicode Support [11i v1] HP-UX 11i v1 provides system level support for the Unicode 2.1/ISO 10646 character set. Hewlett-Packard support for Unicode provides a basis of enabling heterogeneous interoperability for all geographic areas. ISO 10646 is an industry standard for defining a single encoding that uniquely encodes all the characters of the modern world. Unicode 2.1 is the companion specification to ISO 10646. Unicode specification at revision 2.
Encoding Characters Euro Support Table 2-3 Supplied utf8 Locale Sources Supporting Dual Currency (Continued) Locale Language (Region) it_IT.utf8 Italian (Italy) nl_NL.utf8 Dutch (The Netherlands) no_NO.utf8 Norwegian (Norway) pt_PT.utf8 Portuguese (Portugal) sv_SE.utf8 Swedish (Sweden) To build these locales, refer to the localedef (1M) man page. When the LANG and/or LC_* environment variables are set to a euro supported locale, the national monetary formatting rules are used.
Encoding Characters Euro Support libc Standard libc supports @euro dual currency designation.
Encoding Characters Euro Support Impact To use euro monetary formatting rules, the LC_MONETARY environment variable must be set to the euro supported locale name with the @euro modifier appended to it. The size requirement for locale sources and binaries is 20.1 MB, and 191 KB for the converter tables. There are no compatibility issues involved with the addition of these features.
Encoding Characters Euro Support Data Conversion (iconv) for the Greek Euro The following Greek iconv converters have been updated to support the four new characters added to ISO-88597 (see Table 2-9 in the Euro-enabled Greek Locales section) in conversions with UTF-8 and Unicode: iso87 <-> ucs2 iso87 <-> utf8 The following iconv converters are now available to support data conversions between Greek EBCDIC (code page 875) and UTF-8/Unicode: greee <-> ucs2 greee <-> utf8 ISO-88597 and Greek EBCDIC converters

Encoding Characters Euro Support Displaying the Euro for Greek X11R6 Xlib has been enhanced to support the Euro when running in el_GR.iso88597 and el.GR.utf8 locales. New font glyphs have been added to support the four new characters in ISO-88597. CDE is providing XlocaleDB for the el_GR.utf8 locale, and with this new XlocaleDB, el_GR.utf8 uses updated ISO-88597 fonts for displaying the Euro.
Encoding Characters Unicode 2.1 Support [11.0 patch, 11i v1] Unicode 2.1 Support [11.0 patch, 11i v1] HP-UX provides system-level support for the Unicode 2.1/ISO 10646 character set. Hewlett-Packard’s support for Unicode provides the basis for enabling heterogeneous interoperability for all locales. ISO 10646 is an industry standard for defining a single encoding that uniquely encodes all the world’s characters. Unicode 2.1 is the companion specification to ISO 10646.
Encoding Characters Unicode 2.1 Support [11.0 patch, 11i v1] Table 2-15 Asian utf8 Locales for 32-bit Application Processing Locale Language (Region) ja_JP.utf8 Japanese (Japan) ko_KR.utf8 Korean (Korea) zh_CN.utf8 Simplified Chinese (China) zh_HK.utf8 Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong) zh_TW.utf8 Traditional Chinese (Taiwan) To enable Unicode support in applications, set the environment variable to a desired utf8 locale.

Encoding Characters Unicode 3.0 Support [11i v2] Unicode 3.0 Support [11i v2] Summary of Change HP-UX 11i v2 includes Unicode 3.0 support, which is an extension to the previously supported Unicode 2.1 standard. Unicode 3.0 is aligned with the revised ISO 10646-1:2000 standard and includes an additional 10,194 characters from the previous version of the standard. Most notable of these additional characters are 6,582 new CJK characters (Han Extension A) for use in various Asian countries.
Encoding Characters Support for the GB18030 Standard [11i v1.6] Support for the GB18030 Standard [11i v1.6] GB18030 is officially referred to as “Chinese National Standard GB 18030-2000: Information Technology Chinese Ideograms Coded Character Set for Information Interchange - Extension for the Basic Set”. It is a government mandated conformance requirement for all products sold in China, effective as of September 1, 2001.
Encoding Characters Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set [11i v1.6] song18u.pcf and song24u.pcf contain all the 2-byte and 4-byte characters whose patterns are defined in GB18030, including Mongolian, Tibetan, Yi, and Uigur characters. Those characters are assigned to the code points defined in ISO10646-1:2000.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings Converting Between Encodings Corrected Character Mappings to iconv (1) and iconv (3C) [11.0 patch, 11i v1] This release contains defect fixes for incorrect character mappings. The corrections concern the Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters of HP-UX. Corrected character converter mappings allow for improved interoperability when sending or receiving converted character data to and from Unicode-aware systems.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings In the case of big5 coding to and from UCS2/UTF-8, the Ideographic Space character was absent in the Unicode conversion table mapping: Table 2-21 big5 Changes in iconv Tables for big5/Unicode Incorrect UCS2 0xA140 Correct UCS2 0x3000 Char Name Ideographic Space The following table summarizes the changes applied for conversions between eucTW and UCS2.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings No compatibility problems are anticipated. However, if compatibility concerns arise with regard to persistent data stored either in Unicode (UCS2) or UTF-8 on an HP-UX system, it is possible to generate a simple conversion script to search for each occurrence of an incorrect value in either UCS2 or UTF-8 and convert it to the correct value, based on the mappings in Table 2-23.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings Affected iconv conversions are conversions between sjis and UCS2 or UTF-8 as well as conversions between eucJP and UCS2 or UTF-8. The sjis=ucs2, ucs2=sjis, eucJP=ucs2 and ucs2=eucJP iconv conversion tables are affected. These tables are shared by both UCS2 and UTF-8 conversions. No compatibility problems are anticipated.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings JIS X0221 is the Japanese national standard equivalent to ISO-10646:1993 and Unicode 2.1. NOTE These tables convert between HP’s EUC and Shift-JIS (SJIS) characters to those specified by the strict JIS X0201 interpretation as well as the Microsoft Unicode and UTF-8 mappings. The JIS X0221 Extended conversion mappings are already supported within HP-UX. These new converters require 0.6 MB of additional space.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings Table 2-28 illustrates the mapping variances between converter tables when converting between EUC and different interpretations of Unicode character mappings. NOTE Table 2-28 EUC The JIS X0201 Extended (Unix) mappings are already available on HP-UX, referenced in this table as eucJP.
Encoding Characters Converting Between Encodings Mainframe iconv Converters for Japanese characters [11.0 patch, 11i v1 patch, 11i v2] Mainframe iconv converters between ShiftJIS/eucJP/UCS2 and NEC-JIPS/Hitachi-KEIS/Fujitsu-JEF, were introduced at HP-UX 11i v1.0. This release includes several fixes of mapping errors for JIS standard characters.
Locales New ISO 8859-15 and UTF-8 Locales [11.0 patch, 11i v1] 3 Locales New ISO 8859-15 and UTF-8 Locales [11.0 patch, 11i v1] Fourteen new locales have been created for Euro support based on ISO 8859-15. Refer to Table 2-1 on page 20. Thirteen new locales have been created for Unicode (and Euro) support based on UTF-8.
Locales Changed locale and localedef Commands [11i v1.5] Changed locale and localedef Commands [11i v1.5] To enable smooth migration from PA to IPF, both PA and IPF locale libraries and iconv methods need to exist on an Itanium-based system. Directory Structure Changes The current directory structure on 64-bit PA systems is: /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.1 /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.2 /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales /usr/lib/nls/loc/methods.1 /usr/lib/nls/loc/methods.
Locales Changed locale and localedef Commands [11i v1.5] A new option, -A, lists all the locale libraries regardless of the flavors and versions. This list includes locales in these directories: /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.2 /usr/lib/nls/loc/pa20_64/locales.2 /usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux32/locales.1 /usr/lib/nls/loc/hpux64/locales.1 Changes to localedef Command Beginning in 11.0, localedef builds both 32-bit and 64-bit locale libraries on 32-bit and 64-bit systems for PA.
Locales Building Locales for HP-UX 11.0 and HP-UX 11i Building Locales for HP-UX 11.0 and HP-UX 11i HP-UX 11.0 and HP-UX 11i systems can have up to three different flavors of the same locale: • • • 32-bit 64-bit HP-UX 10.20 compatibility 32-bit The following sections present build requirements, briefly describe each flavor, and give the locale building procedure. The locale zh_CN.utf8 is used as an example.
Locales Changes to Locales [11i v1.6] • To build, run the following command on a 64-bit machine. This command produces 32- and 64-bit locales. The 64-bit locale is created under the ./pa20_64 directory. localedef -C '+ESlit' -Q -L -x -Pcnf utf8.cm -m univ.utf8.m -i \ zh_CN.utf8.src zh_CN.utf8 > zh_CN.out 2> zh_CN.err Compatibility 32-bit locales • • • Located at /usr/lib/nls/loc/locales.1/zh_CN.utf8.

Asian System Environment (ASE) ASE Changes [11i v1.6] If the first two key inputs are from 81 to FE, and the following two key inputs are from 30 to 39, XSIM WILL wait for another set of four key inputs, ranging from 81 to FE as the next two key inputs, and 30 to 39 as yet another two key inputs to generate one 4-byte character immediately after the eighth key is entered. XSIM beeps for any non-hexidecimal keys during four or eight key inputs.
Asian System Environment (ASE) ASE Changes [11i v1.6] — ESCP is another printer model file to print Asian multibyte characters on ESC/P emulation printers. It requires that Asian fonts be previously installed in the printers. — hpc1205at is another printer model file to print on HP legacy HP C1200A/C1205A line printers. It requires printers to have the Big5 font installed. Table 4-9 HKSCS-related Primary Printing Options Option Behavior zh_HK.
Asian System Environment (ASE) ASE Changes [11i v2] ASE Changes [11i v2] Changes to Simplified Chinese Input Methods In order to support input for characters defined by the GB18030 standard a new Chinese input method, Intelligent ABC, has been added to HP-UX. Two obsolete Simplified Chinese input methods have been removed. Since 2001 HP-UX has supported the China mandatory National Standard GB18030, but did not have a modern S-Chinese input method for the input of GB18030 characters.
Asian System Environment (ASE) ASE Changes [11i v2] Host-installed TrueType fonts are Mincho and Gothic typefaces for ja_JP.SJIS/ja_JP.eucJP/ja_JP.utf8 locales, Batang and Dotum typefaces for ko_KR.eucKR/ko_KR.utf8 locales, Sun and Hei typefaces for zh_CN.hp15CN/zh_CN.gb18030/zh_CN.utf8 locales, and Ming typeface for zh_TW.ccdc/zh_TW.big5/zh_TW.eucTW/zh_TW.utf8/zh_HK.hkbig5/zh_HK.utf8 locales. The character sets of these TrueType fonts comply with country and regional standards.

Miscellaneous Modifications Multibyte Support Extension and Unix98 Support [11i v1] Multibyte Support Extension and Unix98 Support [11i v1] A new set of multibyte APIs have been added to libc following C99 specification (ISO/IEC 9899:1999), and the Unix98 specification. These APIs extend the already existing multibyte and wide character APIs in order to be able to: • Perform input and output of wide character, or multibyte character, or both. • Perform general wide string manipulation.
Miscellaneous Modifications Multibyte Support Extension and Unix98 Support [11i v1] Under the C shell this is accomplished using setenv UNIX_STD 98 A cc compiler equal to HP92453-01 A.11.01.20 HP C Compiler or newer is required to get this functionality. The following list is a summary of the new and modified APIs. For further details, please refer to the corresponding man pages.
Miscellaneous Modifications Multibyte Support Extension and Unix98 Support [11i v1] wcrtomb wcrtomb() converts a wide-character to a multibyte character. It determines the number of bytes needed to represent the character corresponding to the wide-character code whose value is specified by the second argument. wcsrtombs wcsrtombs() converts a wide-character string to a character string. Note that the behavior of this function is affected by the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
Miscellaneous Modifications Potential Modifications to NLS as of HP-UX 11i Potential Modifications to NLS as of HP-UX 11i The following interfaces are subject to change or obsolescence in the next major release: • The NLS configuration file is an HP-specific file and not specified by standards, and as such, it is subject to change in future releases. The /usr/lib/nls/config file may be moved to /usr/lib/nls/loc/config.
Miscellaneous Modifications Potential Modifications to NLS as of HP-UX 11i • Future MSE changes: ISO/MSE 9899:1990/Amendment 1:1994(E) defines extensions to ISO/MSE:1990 Programming Language -C. The amendment provides a more complete and consistent set of utilities for application programming using multibyte and wide-character functions, as well as providing alternate spellings for language-specific tokens. ANSI C has since adopted this amendment, and X/Open will eventually align with this amendment.
