This example uses GpiQueryCharSet to return the character-set local identifier (lcid), as set by the GpiSetCharSet call.

#define INCL_GPIPRIMITIVES /* Primitive functions */
#include <os2.h>

LONG lLcid; /* character set lcid (or error) */
HPS hps; /* Presentation-space handle */

lLcid = GpiQueryCharSet(hps);
