I don't use a file named QCPYSRC.  I keep my source members in a file 
named QRPGLESRC.   Did you change that?   If so, I must warn you that 
making changes to the HTTPAPI source code will make it more difficult 
for you to upgrade from one release to the next.  I recommend that you 
leave HTTPAPI as-is.  When you write your own programs that itnerface 
with it, put the source code and objects for those programs in separate 
libraries so that you can delete and reinstall LIBHTTP without losing 
your source code or objects.

Also, you don't have to manually include CONFIG_H, it's brought in 
automatically by HTTPAPI_H. I don't understand what any of this has to 
do with your original question about coding international characters? 
All programs that use HTTPAPI must /COPY the HTTPAPI_H member, since it 
contains all of the definitions needed to use the tool.

I can't tell you whether your call to HTTP_setCCSIDs() belongs after 
these statements or not, since I don't know what other code you have 
after these statements!  Please remember that I've never seen your 
program!

You can put the call to http_setccsids() anywhere, as long as it runs 
before your call to HTTP_url_post_xml().

You appear to be using an outdated version of HTTPAPI.  Please upgrade 
to the current version.

No, it's purely used to control the data that's sent to the web service, 
it has nothing to do with your files.
