<p>The Retrieve CCSID Text (QLGRTVCT) API retrieves different subsets of
CCSIDs' values and their descriptions, if available. A typical use of this API
would be to retrieve all the CCSIDs that are valid for a job.</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>None.</p>
<br>
<h3>Required Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Receiver variable</strong></dt>
<dd>OUTPUT; CHAR(*)
<p>The variable to receive the requested information. You can specify the size
of the area to be smaller than the format requested, provided you specify the
length of the receiver variable parameter correctly. As a result, the API
returns only the data the area can hold.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Length of receiver variable</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The length of the receiver variable. If the length is larger than the size
of the receiver variable, the results may not be predictable. The minimum
length is 8 bytes.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Format name</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(8)
<p>The content and format of the information returned. The possible format name
is:</p>
<table cellpadding="3">
<!-- cols="15 85" -->

<td align="left" valign="top"><em>RTVT0100</em></td>
<td valign="top">Basic CCSID information format. For details about the format,
see <a href="#HDRRTVCI">Format of the Generated Output</a>.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>CCSID Request Type</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; Binary(4)
<p>The type of CCSID requested.</p>

<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>CCSID request type encoding scheme selection</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; Char(2)
<p>The encoding scheme requested. If request type is not 2, this parameter must
be x'0000'.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Error code</strong></dt>
<dd>I/O; CHAR(*)
<p>The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the
structure, see <a href="../apiref/error.htm#hdrerrcod">Error Code Parameter</a>. If this
parameter is omitted, diagnostic and escape messages are issued to the
application.</p>
