MSCA Turkish

After successful installation of Mobile Supply Chain Applications (MSCA) of Oracle Applications Release 11.5.10, we discovered Telnet client can not display characters for the Turkish language.

Telnet Protocol; Mobile Applications Framework's Presentation Manager Layer can send data to telnet clients in multi-byte. However, for telnet clients (whether it be a telnet client software on Microsoft Windows, Unix, etc. or a telnet client on a mobile device) to display characters for the specified language, system administrator's have to set the CHARACTER_SET parameter in their default_key.ini file (or whatever ini file they use for this in $MWA_TOP/secure directory) to the proper character encoding value.

For example, for West European character sets (like French ), CHARACTER_SET has to be set to WE8ISO8859P1. When this fails for you, try using the encoding scheme format for your characterset as referenced from java character codes:

For example, we tried using 'Cp1254' (case sensitive) for Turkish charactersets as the value in CHARACTER_SET.

Also check CLASSPATH. Some charactersets are available by default in the Basic Encoding set (rt.jar) file, while others are available in the Extended Encoding set (i18n.jar or characters.jar in the upper versions of Java). Therefore, CLASSPATH needs to include the correct file.
