Problem description: | |
The catalog table SYSIBM.SYSCOLUMNS contains three codepage-related columns, CODEPAGE, DBCSCODEPG and COMPOSITE_CODEPAGE, each representing the singly byte code page, double byte code page and mixed code page, respectively. During the processing of ALTER TABLE..ALTER COLUMN, we may update the value of CODEPAGE incorrectly and we don't update the value of DBCSCODEPG. The two columns, CODEPAGE and DBCSCODEPG, are mainly used for down level compatibility. | |
