Setting Japanese language options

About this task

Most of the Remote Build messages returned to the distributed system come from the catalog on the z/OS® system. If you want to receive Remote Build messages in Japanese, set the RCC_LANG environment variable to jpn on the client where you issue the rccbuild command.

If you select the Japanese messages, your remote build code page specified through the -k and -r options must be Japanese code pages for the distributed system and for the host system respectively.

A few messages are issued directly from the distributed platform catalog. If you want to receive these messages in Japanese, you can use one of the following settings to set the environment variables on the client where you issue the rccbuild command.

Procedure

  • On a Windows® system set either of the following sets of environment variables:
    • In the following environment variables C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearCase\bin\resdll is where the Japanese message catalog is located, %L is the environment variable you set for LANG, which is ja_JP, and %N is the Japanese message catalog, which is bccMsg.cat.

      Use %%L and %%N to carry out the set command within a batch file instead of %L and %N.

      set LANG=ja_JP
      set NLSPATH=C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearCase\bin\resdll\%L\%N;%NLSPATH%
    • set RCC_CATALOG=C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearCase\bin\resdll\ja_JP\bccMsg.cat
  • On an AIX® system, you can also set the same environment variables to receive these messages in Japanese. Unless you have installed the catalog in a different place other than /usr/lib/nls/msg, the Japanese message catalog with the EUC and Shift-JIS code pages is /usr/lib/nls/msg/ja_JP/bccMsg.cat and /usr/lib/nls/msg/Ja_JP/bccMsg.cat, respectively. Therefore, you may set LANG to either ja_JP or Ja_JP and set the NLSPATH to /usr/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N:$NLSPATH.
