note 102586 added to ibm-db2.configuration

The explanation of ibm_db2.i5_dbcs_alloc seems to be hard to understand for me. In ibm_db2 extension inside, 6 times length of string column is allocated if i5_dbcs_alloc value is 1. The allocated area is used for conversion between UTF-8 and EBCDIC character encodings. By the definition of UTF-8, letter length can need 6 bytes at the maximum. Note: In the case of a long column, allocated size may be beyond the upper limit defined in DB2 because original column is made by 6 times. It can cause result data becomes null. ---- Server IP: 219.94.145.73 Probable Submitter: 221.243.162.22 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ibm-db2.configuration.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/102586 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102586 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/102586 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
