Message A UCN escape sequence was recognized, but there was no translation for it into the current codeset. The escape sequence will be used verbatim. Description A Universal Character Name (UCN) escape sequence was recognized, but there was no translation for it into the current codeset using the iconv library routine. The complete escape sequence itself, including the backslash, will be used in the object module. User Action Make sure your locale is set at compile-time to use a codeset for which a converter from UCS-4 is available, and which supports all of the characters that are expressed as UCNs in your program. Alternatively, change your code to avoid the use of UCNs, e.g. using hexadecimal escape sequences.
