<div dir="ltr">Hi Tom,<div>To be perfectly honest with you, you're getting into some of the details that we're in the process of working out. In general, we intend to support compiling source files in different code pages and allow users to create ASCII and EBCDIC programs with string/char literals in multiple code pages. </div><div><br></div><div>To answer your specific questions, our current clang-based compilers do not support #pragma filetag or #pragma convlit. We do however have support for #pragma convert. </div><div><br></div><div>Our intention is to commit all of this upstream, subject of course to discussion and review with the community. </div><div><br></div><div>We'll be sending an RFC to the dev lists when we are ready to start upstreaming our work. That RFC can include some more details about some of these features. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br>Kit</div><div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Feb 25, 2020 at 11:29 AM Tom Honermann via llvm-dev <<a href="mailto:llvm-dev@lists.llvm.org">llvm-dev@lists.llvm.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Kit. I'm curious about the support for Clang on z/OS and, in particular, support for EBCDIC based source files and run-time interaction with the OS. Would you be able to describe what features IBM has added (or will be adding) along
those lines? Will the <a href="https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.bpxb200/uenha.htm" target="_blank">
