This appendix lists the languages, territories, character sets, and other locale data supported by the Oracle server. It includes these topics:

[Download MS-DOS 7.10 CD Full Installation]. ISO image of MS-DOS 7.10 Full Installation: Images: None [Download MS-DOS 7.10 CD Full Installation] Comments.

You can obtain information about character sets, languages, territories, and linguistic sorts by querying the V$NLS_VALID_VALUES dynamic performance view.

See Also:

Oracle Database Reference for more information about the data that can be returned by this view

Languages

Languages in Table A-1 provide support for locale-sensitive information such as the following:

  • Day and month names and their abbreviations

  • Symbols for equivalent expressions for A.M., P.M., A.D., and B.C.

  • Default sorting sequence for character data when the ORDER BY SQL clause is specified

  • Writing direction (left to right or right to left)

  • Affirmative and negative response strings (for example, YES and NO)

By using Unicode databases and datatypes, you can store, process, and retrieve data for almost all contemporary languages, including many that do not appear in Table A-1.

Character Sets

Oracle-supported character sets are listed in the following sections according to three broad categories.

In addition, common character set subset/superset combinations are listed. Some character sets can only be used with certain data types. For example, the AL16UTF16 character set can only be used as an NCHAR character set, and not as a database character set.

Also documented in the comment section are other unique features of the character set that may be important to users or your database administrator. For example, the information includes whether the character set supports the euro currency symbol, whether user-defined characters are supported, and whether the character set is a strict superset of ASCII. (You can use the CSALTER script to migrate an existing database to a new character set, only if all of the schema data is a strict subset of the new character set.)

The following is the key for the comment column of the character set tables:

SB: single-byte encoding
MB: multibyte encoding
FIXED: fixed-width multibyte encoding
ASCII: strict superset of ASCII
EURO: euro symbol supported
UDC: user-defined characters supported

Oracle does not document individual code page layouts. For specific details about a particular character set, its character repertoire, and code point values, you can use Oracle Locale Builder. Otherwise, you should refer to the actual national, international, or vendor-specific standards.

Recommended Database Character Sets

Table A-4 lists the recommended and most commonly used ASCII-based Oracle database character sets. The list is ordered alphabetically within their respective language group.

Universal Character Sets

Table A-10 lists the Oracle character sets that provide universal language support. They attempt to support all languages of the world, including, but not limited to, Asian, European, and Middle Eastern languages.

Note:

DosCESU-8 defines an encoding scheme for Unicode that is identical to UTF-8 except for its representation of supplementary characters. In CESU-8, supplementary characters are represented as six-byte sequences that result from the transformation of each UTF-16 surrogate code unit into an eight-bit form that is similar to the UTF-8 transformation, but without first converting the input surrogate pairs to a scalar value. See Unicode Technical Report #26.

See Also:

Chapter 6, 'Supporting Multilingual Databases with Unicode'

Character Set Conversion Support

The following character set encodings are supported for conversion only. They cannot be used as the database or national character set:

AL16UTF16LE
ISO2022-CN
ISO2022-JP
ISO2022-KR
HZ-GB-2312

You can use these character sets as the source_char_set or dest_char_set in the CONVERTfunction.

See Oracle Database SQL Reference for more information about the CONVERT function and 'The CONVERT Function'.

Language and Character Set Detection Support

Table A-13 displays the languages and character sets that are supported by the language and character set detection in the Character Set Scanner utilities (CSSCAN and LCSSCAN) and the Globalization Development Kit (GDK).

Each language has several character sets that can be detected.

When the binary values for a language match two or more encodings that have a subset/superset relationship, the subset character set is returned. For example, if the language is German and all characters are 7-bit, then US7ASCII is returned instead of WE8MSWIN1252, WE8ISO8859P15, or WE8ISO8859P1.

When the character set is determined to be UTF-8, the Oracle character set UTF8 is returned by default unless 4-byte characters (supplementary characters) are detected within the text. If 4-byte characters are detected, then the character set is reported as AL32UTF8.

Linguistic Sorts

Oracle offers two kinds of linguistic sorts, monolingual and multilingual. In addition, monolingual sorts can be extended to handle special cases. These special cases (represented with a prefix X) typically mean that the characters are sorted differently from their ASCII values. For example, ch and ll are treated as a single character in XSPANISH.

Ms Dos 7 10 Iso

All of the linguistic sorts can be also be performed as case-insensitive or accent-insensitive by appending _CI or _AI to the linguistic sort name.

Table A-14 lists the monolingual linguistic sorts supported by the Oracle server.

Table A-15 lists the multilingual linguistic sorts available in Oracle. All of them include GENERIC_M (an ISO standard for sorting Latin-based characters) as a base. Multilingual linguistic sorts are used for a specific primary language together with Latin-based characters. For example, KOREAN_M sorts Korean and Latin-based characters, but it does not collate Chinese, Thai, or Japanese characters.

Table A-15 Multilingual LInguistic Sorts

Sort NameDescription

CANADIAN_M

Canadian French sort supports reverse secondary, special expanding characters

DANISH_M

Danish sort supports sorting uppercase characters before lowercase characters

FRENCH_M

French sort supports reverse sort for secondary

AL24UTFFSS Character Set Desupported

Ms Dos 710 Iso Download Free

The Unicode Character Set AL24UTFFSS was desupported in Oracle9i. AL24UTFFSS was introduced in version 7 as the Unicode character set supporting UTF-8 encoding scheme based on the Unicode standard 1.1, which is now obsolete. In Oracle Database 10g, Oracle offers the Unicode database character set AL32UTF8, which is based on Unicode 4.0, and UTF8, which is based on Unicode 3.0.

The migration path for an existing AL24UTFFSS database is to upgrade to UTF8 prior to upgrading to Oracle9i. As with all migrations to a new database character set, Oracle Corporation recommends that you use the Character Set Scanner for data analysis before attempting to migrate your existing database character set to UTF8.

Updates to the Oracle Language and Territory Definition Files

Changes have been made to the content in some of the language and territory definition files in Oracle Database 10g. These updates are necessary to correct the legacy definitions which no longer meet the local conventions in some of the Oracle supported languages and territories. These changes include modifications to the currency symbols, month names, and group separators. One example is the local currency symbol for Brazil. This has been updated from Cr$ to R$ in Oracle Database 10g.

Please refer to the 'Oracle Language and Territory definition changes' table documented in the $ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/old/data_changes.html file for a detailed list of the changes.

Oracle Database 10g customers should review their existing application code to make sure that the correct cultural conventions that are defined in Oracle Database 10g are being used. For customers who may not be able to make the necessary code changes to support their applications, Oracle offers Oracle9i locale definition files with Oracle Database 10g.

To revert back to the Oracle9i language and territory behavior, perform the following:

Ms Dos 710 Iso Download Free

  1. Shutdown the database.

  2. Run the script cr9idata.pl from the $ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/old directory.

  3. Set the ORA_NLS10 environment variable to the newly created $ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/9idata directory.

  4. Restart the database.

Iso

Steps 2 and 3 will need to be repeated for all 10g database clients that need to revert back to the Oracle9i definition files.

Oracle Corporation strongly recommends that customers use the Oracle Database 10g locale definition files; Oracle9i locale definition files will be desupported in a future release.

From Jamesonline:

DOS-on-USB lets you install MS-DOS 7.1 on your USB memory key. After formatting your flash drive, you can install a full working version of MS-DOS to let you run games or system utilities. The best thing about having a DOS-bootable memory key is you can boot into it on any computer, just like a CD.

You'll find this utility great for times you need to do system maintenance, because you wont constantly have to burn a new CD, just copy the program to the USB Drive. With the DOS prompt, you can even install Windows 95 or 98. Recommended USB drive size: 16MB - 2GB. Version 2 features an auto launch for ease of the DOS operating system.
