The
conversionTable property of the
fileLink element
of the linkage options part specifies the name of the conversion table
used to perform automatic data conversion during access of remote
files. If you do not specify this property, the program does not perform
data conversion automatically but must perform any required conversion
in either of these ways:
- By making explicit calls to the sysLib.convert system
function
- By defining a conversion template to CICS®
You can specify one of the following values:
- conversion table name
- Conversion on the client uses the conversion table specified.
- *
- Uses the default conversion table. The name of that table is ELANCxxx,
where the value of xxx is the value of the targetNLS build
descriptor option.
For a list of tables, see the topic "Data conversion".
- PROGRAMCONTROLLED
- Conversion on the client uses the conversion table name in the sysVar.callConversionTable system
variable at run time. If sysVar.callConversionTable contains
blanks, no conversion occurs.

see the
EGL Language Reference.
