DosSetProcessCp

Allows a process to set its code page.

Syntax
DosSetProcessCp(cp)

Parameters

 * cp (ULONG) - input : A code page identifier.
 * Possible values are shown in the list.

Return Code

 * ulrc (APIRET) - returns:DosSetProcessCp returns one of the following values:
 * 0 NO_ERROR
 * 472 ERROR_INVALID_CODE_PAGE

Remarks
DosSetProcessCp sets the process code page of the calling process. The code page of a process is used in the following ways: DosSetProcessCp does not affect the display or keyboard code page.
 * 1) The printer code page is set to the process code page through the file system and printer spooler (the system spooler must be installed) when the process makes a request to open the printer. Calling DosSetProcessCp does not affect the code page of a printer opened prior to the call, and does not affect the code page of a printer opened by another process.
 * 2) Country-dependent information, by default, is retrieved encoded in the code page of the calling process.
 * 3) A newly-created process inherits its process code page from its parent process.

Example Code
This example sets the code page of the process to 850. 
 * 1) define INCL_DOSNLS      /* National Language Support values */
 * 2) define INCL_DOSERRORS   /* DOS Error values */
 * 3) include 
 * 4) include 

int main(VOID) { APIRET rc     = NO_ERROR;

rc = DosSetProcessCp(850);

if (rc != NO_ERROR) { printf("DosSetProcessCp error: return code = %u\n", rc); return 1; }

return NO_ERROR; }
