CODE SET CONVERSION MANAGEMENT OPTIMIZATION
First Claim
1. A method for code set conversion, the method comprising:
- registering a request to convert an encoded character string from a first code set to a second code set;
identifying a code set converter (CSC) which, when executed, converts the encoded character string from the first code set to the second code set;
determining whether a most recently used CSC is the identified CSC;
in response to determining that the most recently used CSC is not the identified CSC, searching for the identified CSC in a user-preferred CSC pool including a subset of locally stored CSCs each corresponding to a respective preference index; and
in response to determining that the identified CSC is located within the user-preferred CSC pool;
loading the identified CSC;
initiating the identified CSC that converts the encoded character string from the first code set to the second code set;
modifying usage data for the identified CSC; and
ordering the user-preferred CSC pool based on a preference index for each CSC stored in the user-preferred CSC pool.

Abstract
A management module registers a request to convert code from a first code set to a second code set, identifies a code set converter (CSC), determines whether a most recently used CSC is the identified CSC and, in response to determining that the most recently used CSC is not the identified CSC, locates a user-preferred CSC pool comprising a subset of locally stored CSCs each corresponding to a preference index. The management module, in response to determining that the identified CSC is located within the user-preferred CSC pool, searches the user-preferred CSC pool for the identified CSC, loads the identified CSC, initiates the identified CSC that converts the code from the first code set to the second code set, modifies usage data for the identified CSC, and orders the user-preferred CSC pool based on a preference index for each CSC stored in the CSC pool.

8. A data processing system for code set conversion, the data processing system comprising:
-
a processor; data storage coupled to the processor; and program code stored within the data storage that, when processed by the processor, causes the data processing system to; register a request to convert an encoded character string from a first code set to a second code set; identify a code set converter (CSC) which, when executed, converts the encoded character string from the first code set to the second code set; determine whether a most recently used CSC is the identified CSC; in response to determining that the most recently used CSC is not the identified CSC, search for the identified CSC in a user-preferred CSC pool including a subset of locally stored CSCs each corresponding to a respective preference index; and in response to determining that the identified CSC is located within the user-preferred CSC pool; load the identified CSC; initiate the identified CSC that converts the encoded character string from the first code set to the second code set; modify usage data for the identified CSC; and order the user-preferred CSC pool based on a preference index for each CSC stored in the user-preferred CSC pool. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computer program product for code set conversion, the computer program product comprising:
-
a non-transitory computer readable storage device; and program code stored within the tangible computer readable storage device that, when processed by the processor, cause the data processing system to; register a request to convert an encoded character string from a first code set to a second code set; identify a code set converter (CSC) which, when executed, converts the encoded character string from the first code set to the second code set; determine whether a most recently used CSC is the identified CSC; in response to determining that the most recently used CSC is not the identified CSC, search for the identified CSC in a user-preferred CSC pool including a subset of locally stored CSCs each corresponding to a respective preference index; and in response to determining that the identified CSC is located within the user-preferred CSC pool; load the identified CSC; initiate the identified CSC that converts the encoded character string from the first code set to the second code set; modify usage data for the identified CSC; and order the user-preferred CSC pool based on a preference index for each CSC stored in the user-preferred CSC pool. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
