List code-set-conversion files

When you specify the -cv command-line option, the glfiles utility creates a file that lists the available code-set-conversion files.

For each cvY subdirectory in $INFORMIXDIR/gls, glfiles creates a file in your current directory that is called cvY.txt, where Y is the version number of the code-set-conversion object-file format. The cvY.txt file lists the code-set conversions in alphabetical order, sorted on the name of the object code-set-conversion file.

For two-way code-set conversions, the $INFORMIXDIR/gls/cvY directory contains two code-set-conversion files. One file supports conversion from the characters in code set A to their mappings in code set B, and another supports the conversion in the return direction (from code set B to code set A). For more information about two-way code-set conversion, see page Code-set-conversion files.

The following figure shows a file, cv9.txt, that lists available code-set conversions.

Examine the cvY.txt file to determine the code-set conversions that the $INFORMIXDIR/gls/cvY directory on your system supports.
