Before you begin
About this task
Procedure
To configure the vCard export application, complete the
following steps.
- Start the wsadmin client from the following
directory of the system on which you installed the Deployment Manager:
where app_server_root is the WebSphere® Application Server installation directory and dm_profile_root is the Deployment Manager profile directory, typically dmgr01.app_server_root\profiles\dm_profile_root\bin
You must start the client from this directory or subsequent commands that you enter do not execute correctly.
- Start the Profiles Jython script interpreter.
- Open the Profiles configuration file, profiles-config.xml,
using a text editor and locate the following <vcardExport> section:
<vcardExport> <charset name="UTF-8"> <label key="label.vcard.encoding.utf8"/> </charset> <charset name="ISO-8859-1"> <label key="label.vcard.encoding.iso88591"/> </charset> <charset name="Cp943c"> <label key="label.vcard.encoding.cp943c"/> </charset> </vcardExport>
- To provide an export encoding that is specific to your
language, include the following lines of code within the <vcardExport> tags:
where:<charset name="character_encoding"> <label key="ui_label"/> </charset>
- character_encoding is the name of the character encoding to export.
- ui_label is the label for the character encoding in the user interface.
The following character set encoding options work best:<vcardExport> ... <charset name="Windows-1256"> <label key="label.vcard.encoding.windows.arabic"/> </charset> </vcardExport>
Complete this step for every language for which you require encoding support. There is no limit to the number of character set encodings that you can specify.Table 1.
