Hebrew/RTL support

[elikalins]

Hello everyone,
I am experiencing difficulties with Hebrew support in my editor. The words get jumbled up when there are both English and Hebrew letters.
5250 (original) :

Vs code :

Do you have any suggestions for how to solve this problem?

Thank you.

Hey @elikalins!

So we can test with this: what is the CCSID of the source file?

Thanks,
Liam

@elikalins To confirm, that hex is the same as the source member you shared, right?

[worksofliam]

It doesn't look like FD (\u200E) is in your hex string!

Hey @elikalins !!

I recreated it!!

cl: crtsrcpf liama/hebrew ccsid(424);
cl: ADDPFM FILE(LIAMA/HEBREW) MBR(HEBREW) TEXT('Hebrew');
insert into liama/hebrew values (
  0, 0, x'E2D5C4D1D4C1C9D3404040E2E4C2D1C5C3E34D7D4040405551586445404468695640714668516940714651586440484644407D5D404E'
);

select * from liama/hebrew;

Here is how I recreated it:

cl: crtsrcpf liama/hebrew ccsid(424);
cl: ADDPFM FILE(LIAMA/HEBREW) MBR(HEBREW) TEXT('Hebrew');
insert into liama/hebrew values (
  0, 0, x'E2D5C4D1D4C1C9D3404040E2E4C2D1C5C3E34D7D4040405551586445404468695640714668516940714651586440484644407D5D404E'
);

cl: CPYTOSTMF FROMMBR('/QSYS.LIB/LIAMA.LIB/HEBREW.FILE/HEBREW.MBR') TOSTMF('/tmp/vscodetemp-O_0p9XHiyZ') STMFOPT(*REPLACE) STMFCCSID(1208) DBFCCSID(62245);

select * from liama/hebrew;
