Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Property MapCharacterSet As Boolean

public abstract bool MapCharacterSet { get; set; }

public:
virtual property bool MapCharacterSet {
    bool get () abstract;
    void set (bool value) abstract;
}

/** @property */

/** @property */
public abstract void set_MapCharacterSet (boolean value)

public abstract function get MapCharacterSet () : boolean

public abstract function set MapCharacterSet (value : boolean)

Remarks

If set to true by the application while outputting data, the service object maps the characters transferred by the application to the character set selected in the CharacterSet property.

If false, no mapping occurs. When set to false, the application has to guarantee the mapping of the character set used by the application to the character set selected in the CharacterSet property.

If the CapMapCharacterSet property is set to false, then MapCharacterSet is always set to false.

Accessing MapCharacterSet may cause a PosControlException to be thrown with the following ErrorCode:

Value

Meaning
