Problem Note 18969: Specifying an encoding for the _WEBOUT fileref does not work when you
run a stored process with the Stored Process Server
When you run a stored process with the Stored Process Server, any
encoding value that you specify for the _WEBOUT fileref will be ignored.
For example, in the following code, ENCODING='UTF-8' (in the FILE
statement) is ignored:
data _null_;
rv=appsrv_header("Content-type", "text/html; charset=UTF-8");
run;
data _null_;
file _webout encoding='utf-8';
put '<HTML>';
put '<HEAD><TITLE>Hello World!</TITLE></HEAD>';
put '<BODY>';
put '<H1>¡Hello World UTF-8!</</H1>';
put '<H1>' 'A1'x 'Hello World UTF-8!</H1>';
put '</BODY>';
put '</HTML>';
run;
The Stored Process Server first searches the metadata for the encoding
value. If the default session encoding is not set in the metadata, the
Stored Process Server then queries the Foundation SAS session for the
default encoding of the system's locale.(For example, if the locale is
Japanese_Japan, then the default encoding is Shift-JIS.) This default
encoding is a server-wide parameter, so all requests use that encoding.
NOTE: In SAS® 9.2, you can set the default session encoding via SAS
Management Console.
