Configuring Japanese Settings for Windows

This topic describes how to configure Japanese language settings for Windows.

This task shows you how to:

Configure Language Settings

On Windows, you do not need to configure language settings since Japanese is the default setting in a Shift_JIS environment. However, you should verify that the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Oracle/NLS_LANG value is set to JAPANESE_JAPAN.JA16SJIS in the Windows Registry, in case the value was previously modified to use a different language.

In the SERVER_HOME\distrib\enovia\WEB-INF\classes\ESAPI.properties file, you do need to change the following settings:

Encryptor.CharacterEncoding=Shift_JIS
HttpUtilities.ResponseContentType=text/html;charset=csWindows31J

When the Encryptor.CharacterEncoding setting is changed from the default of UTF-8 to Shift_JIS, the HttpUtilities.ResponseContentType setting must also be changed to csWindows31J for the Shift_JIS configuration in a Japanese environment.

Configure Date and Time Format Settings

To configure the date and time format for your system for use in Japanese:

Add the following lines to enovia.ini (previously ematrix.ini) in the SERVER_INSTALL\<platform>\code\bin\ directory:

<enovia.ini>
MX_NORMAL_DATETIME_FORMAT (MX_NORMAL_DATETIME_FORMAT="moy/dom/yr4 h24:min:sec")

Note: The intel_a platform is used for 32-bit Windows installations, while the win_b64 platform is used for 64-bit Windows installations.
For more information on how the date and time format settings affect your system, see Configuring Date and Time Formats.

Configure Additional Server Settings

Verify that the folder specified for TMPDIR=C:\temp in enovia.ini (previously ematrix.ini) exists. If not, create the folder or change the destination path of TMPDIR.
