vuGlobalsGetCodePage()

vuGlobalsGetCodePage(),CSTRING,PROC,PASCAL,RAW,NAME('vuGlobalsGetCodePage')

This function is declared as returning LONG at the Clarion boundary for legacy compatibility. The numeric return value is actually the address of a null-terminated C string buffer and can be consumed directly in Clarion string expressions, as shown below.

Description

Gets the current runtime CodePage text using the same legacy behavior used by the original vuMail product.

Return value / error codes

• Returns the current CodePage text using the original vuMail legacy text-return style.
• In Clarion, this function can be used directly in text expressions such as MESSAGE() and string assignment.
• If no text is available, the result may be empty.

Example (Clarion)

MESSAGE('The current vuMailKit Code Page is: ' & vuGlobalsGetCodePage())

Notes

• Legacy alias: vuGetCodePage().
• This is a legacy compatibility exception. New text-return APIs should use caller-owned *CSTRING output buffers.
• Value is returned from in-memory globals (load with vuGlobalsLoad() if needed).
