The FAT Filename Conversion Plug-ins component contains plug-in converters used by the File Server. Each plug-in converts file names (FAT or FAT32) between Unicode and a Windows code page.
Windows code page
A Windows code page is also referred to as a code page. It is a character encoding used by Windows OS. Windows code pages match most of the current encodings. For example, CP1250 (a Windows code page) supports character set of ISO-8859-2.
The following table lists the plug-in converters used by the File Server, and their respective target scripts. Each converter is identified by the DLL name which is named as [converter name].dll.
Device creators can create FAT Filename Conversion plug-ins to support character conversion for additional target scripts.
Application developers can have the File Server dynamically load and call a FAT Filename Conversion plug-in to convert file names between Unicode and a Windows code page.
