Sockets and Code-page Conversion
If two applications using different code pages communicate using sockets (one of the external programming interfaces Progress provides), code-page conversion must be performed by the application. It is not performed automatically by the sockets layer. Specifically, it is not performed by socket’s WRITE() method or READ() method.
To perform the code-page conversion, use the 4GL CODEPAGE–CONVERT function either before invoking the 4GL PUT–STRING function or after invoking the 4GL GET–STRING function. For more information on using sockets in Progress applications, see the Progress External Program Interfaces manual.
