Re: ELF and EBCDIC

[Attila Fogarasi]

Its documented in z/OS 2.3 DWARF/ELF extensions, you can look there for
lots of description:

The ddpi, dwarf, and elf libraries store character data in ASCII format.
Values extracted from PPAs or objects may be in EBCDIC. The character
translation operations allow the user to quickly translate printable
characters between IBM®-1047 (EBCDIC) and ISO-8859-1 (ASCII).

   - *ddpi_translate_ibm1047_to_iso8859_1 operation
   
*
   The ddpi_translate_ibm1047_to_iso8859_1 operation translates character
   data from IBM-1047 (EBCDIC) to ISO-8859-1 (ASCII).
   - *ddpi_translate_iso8859_1_to_ibm1047 operation
   
*
   The ddpi_translate_iso8859_1_to_ibm1047 operation translates character
   data from ISO-8859-1 (ASCII) to IBM-1047 (EBCDIC).

What host platform?


z/OS


What language?


GCC, so most likely C


What target  platform?


z/OS

ELF and EBCDIC

In a discussion:

"Currently [...] only supports ELF files for s390, and those usually contain 
ASCII strings(at least those compiled by GCC). To see EBCDIC, you can try 
changing the default string encoding to a EBCDIC one (e.g. codepage 37/1140 or

Is that true?
