Abstract
A character code conversion unit inputs data to a common file that both uses the second code and also is utilized by a plurality of systems, the character code conversion unit being equipped with a code converter and a unit for determining the conversion into another code system. The code converter converts the character data expressed by a first code system into character data expressed by a second code system, and holds the converted results when they are properly converted. The unit for determining the conversion into another code system inputs the data of the first code system and determines whether the data can be converted into data of a third code system, different from both the first code system and the second code system. When the data are properly converted, the converted results held in the code converter are output.
Claims4
A character code conversion unit for converting character data expressed by a first code system into character data expressed by a second code system, comprising:
- a code converter which inputs the character data of the first code system, converts the inputted character data into character data of the second code system, and holds the converted results when they are properly converted;
- and
- a unit for determining the conversion into another character code system, which unit inputs the character data of said first code system and determines whether the character data input therein can be converted into the data of a plurality of other code systems that have been set in advance as a third code system and which third system code data is different from the respective data of both said first code system and said second code system, said code converter outputting the converted results, held in the code converter, when the data can be converted into the data of the third code system.
A character code conversion unit in a file system in which a plurality of data processors, that use character data of respective, different code systems, make access to a common file constituted by the character data of a second code system to utilize it, each of said plurality of data processors comprising:
- a code converter which inputs the character data of a first code system used by the data processors, converts the inputted character data into character data of the second code system and holds the converted results when they are properly converted;
- and
- a unit for determining the conversion into another character code system, which unit inputs the character data of said first code system and determines whether the character data input therein can be converted into the data of a third code system which is different from the respective data of said first code system and said second code system, said code converter outputting converted results, held in said code converter, to the common file.
