Question : How to change HEX value to EBCDIC char

I need an example of java method that will be able to convert HEX value to ebcdic char type

e.g. The example below will return at sign but I would like to get ebcidic equivalent i.e. space char..

String hex = "40";
char c = (char) Integer.parseInt(hex, 16);

Answer : How to change HEX value to EBCDIC char

Now you're gona laugh when you see this, but actually it might be useful, especially if you seek to translate text.

See code attachment.

(You may need to use the Integer.parseInt(hex, 16) to get hex.)
