IBM-1047 EBCDIC codepage not supported?





------- Additional Comments From gmarcy@us.ibm.com  2002-05-23 22:45 -------
I would guess that the main reason that IBM-1047 is not supported in Xerces
is that there is no mention of that codepage in the IANA character set list.
Since there is no standard interoperable name that one could use for documents 
with that encoding, it is not listed in the encoding name table.  Without a
registered standard name, it is difficult to envision that all XML processors
could process such a document, even if they supported the codepage.
