SPR# MCHG5CC6CE - DBCS characters are unreadable when printing a string via System.out.println.

Technote Number: 1193671

Problem:
This issue was reported to Quality Engineering and has been addressed in Domino
6.0.2.

Excerpt from the Lotus Notes and Domino Release 6.0.2 MR fix list (available at
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/):

Designer
SPR# MCHG5CC6CE - DBCS characters are unreadable when printing a string via
System.out.println.

Workaround:
Enable Unicode display for Notes via the User Preferences: File > Preferences
> User Preferences > Basics (default) > Additional Options (scroll list). Set
the default fonts for Notes to a Unicode font. At the User Preferences dialog
click the Default Fonts button to set the desired fonts.

From a Windows client use the operating system's Character Map accessory to
determine if a font has the Unicode option under its "Character Set" property.
From the Windows task bar select Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools
> Character Map.


Steps To Reproduce Problem:

Run the Java agent below on an AS400 server to print a string with DBCS
characters to the Domino Server console. Note that DBCS characters are shown
as garbage.

import lotus.domino.*;

public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {

public void NotesMain() {

try {
Session session = getSession();
AgentContext agentContext = session.getAgentContext();

// (Your code goes here)

System.out.println("張麗燕張麗燕張麗燕張麗燕張麗燕張麗燕張麗燕");

} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
