    Description

      The network client code is unclear and inconsistent in the way it passes around ccsid and encodings. This improvement will change the client code to make it clear that it only supports UTF-8 for FD:OCA data as sent by Network Server.
      See discussiion at:
      http://www.nabble.com/Client-decoding-of-server-Fdoca-data%2C-which-direction-do-we-want-to-go--t1096517.html#a2869822

      That discussion suggests adding the static encoding value to Configuration.java but I think perhaps Typedef.java is a better place. Also need to investigate proper error handling on the client side if server sends a different CCSID. Should we reject with a proper error or just ignore the CCSID and assume it is 1208.
