The Type 4 JDBC driver performs all data conversion on the client platform, using the character converter classes provided by the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). The JRE includes converter classes for most of the character encodings in use around the world. However, by default, the JRE installer installs only European language support on machines that support only European languages. The mainframe encodings based on EBCDIC, such as Cp037, are not included.
The JDBC driver includes built-in support for Cp037 and Cp1047. For other mainframe character sets, include the complete set of character encodings when installing the JRE by selecting the Custom option and then Support for Additional Languages.
This is generally not necessary when using the JRE included with the Java Software Development Kit (JDK), which includes charsets.jar.
Note: For details on managing SSL certificates and keystores for JDBC Type 3 and 4 drivers, see Sun's documentation on JSSE, the Java Secure Sockets Extension.
