GpiQueryCp

Returns the currently selected graphics code page. It is used to retrieve the current presentation space (PS) character position (CP). The CP is a logical position within the PS that specifies the location where text or other graphical objects will be drawn.

Syntax

GpiQueryCp(hps)

Parameter

hps (HPS) - input: Presentation-space handle.

Returns

ulCodePage (ULONG) - returns

Code page.

GPI_ERROR: Error
Otherwise: Code page.

Errors

Possible returns from WinGetLastError

PMERR_INV_HPS (0x207F): An invalid presentation-space handle was specified.
PMERR_PS_BUSY (0x20F4): An attempt was made to access the presentation space from more than one thread simultaneously.

Remarks

The code page identity returned is the one that is set by GpiSetCp (or defaulted when the presentation space is first created). This is the code page of the default font, not the currently-selected font, found from GpiQueryFontMetrics.

Example Code

#define INCL_GPILCIDS /* Or use INCL_GPI, INCL_PM, */
#include <os2.h>

HPS      hps;         /*  Presentation-space handle. */
ULONG    ulCodePage;  /*  Code page. */

ulCodePage = GpiQueryCp(hps);

This example uses GpiQueryCp to return the currently selected graphics code page.

 
#define INCL_GPILCIDS           /* Font functions               */
#include <os2.h>

ULONG  ulCodePage;      /* code page (or error)                 */
HPS    hps;             /* Presentation-space handle            */

ulCodePage = GpiQueryCp(hps);
