Difference between English and Japanese HP-UX STK

The English and Japanese versions of the STK bundled with HP-UX 11i may contain differing documentation (the STK tools are identical for both languages). To verify that you have the latest Japanese documentation set, view these web sites:

Warning when updating to non-C locales

See “Selected Locale Not Available”.

Restrictions with Netscape Communicator 4.75

The trial version of Netscape Communicator provided with HP-UX 11i OEs has these problems with several Asian locales, including Japanese, Korean and Chinese:

  • Asian-character input is not allowed in several dialogs.

  • Asian characters are not be displayed properly in some dialogs where a font switch is not available.

Character-code handling with Perl and Apache

You may encounter the following problems when trying to handle Asian character-codes with Perl15.005_03 bundled with HP-UX 11i:

  • In case of Japanese Shift-JIS code and T-Chinese BIG5 code and S-Chinese GB18030 code, characters containing 0x5c will not be displayed correctly unless you add the back slash character (\).

  • In case of EUC-JP code, translation commands such as tr may not work properly.

    For example, when you try to convert a double-byte Hiragana character to a double-byte Katakana character, you may find the character itself has been changed, not just the type.

What To Do

Get the patch jperl5.005_03 and apply it to Perl. This patch is open source and available at a number of non-HP FTP sites.

Follow these steps:

  1. Get the Perl 5.005_03 source files from: http://devresource.hp.com

  2. Download patch jperl5.005_03 from an open-source Perl site.

  3. Apply the patch to the source code, and build it.

NOTE: Once patched with jperl5.005_003, Perl cannot be used as Mod_perl under the Apache server.
