Exception events in which the document item is alphanumeric and the exception code in XML-CODE is between 100,001 and 165,535 or between 200,001 and 265,535 indicate that the code page of the document (as specified by its encoding declaration) conflicts with the external code-page information.
In this special case, you can choose to parse with the code page of the document by subtracting 100,000 or 200,000 from the value in XML-CODE (depending on whether it is an EBCDIC code page or ASCII code page, respectively). For instance, if XML-CODE contains 101,140, the code page of the document is 1140. Alternatively, you can choose to parse with the external code page by setting XML-CODE to zero before returning to the parser.
The parser takes one of three actions after returning from a processing procedure for a code-page conflict exception event:
The following figure illustrates these actions. The off-page connectors (for
example,
)
connect the multiple charts in this information. In particular,
in the following figure connects to Control flow between XML parser and program, showing XML-CODE usage, and
connects from Control flow for XML exceptions.
XML CCSID exception flow control

In this figure, CCSID (coded character set identifier) is a value from 1 to 65,536 that denotes the code page.
