Hello List,

I want to enhance a connectivity layer, that I use, to automatically
request character set transliteration for blobs of sub type text. I
think for this to work, I need to know the character set ID of the blob
itself, which can be determined using isc_blob_lookup_desc() and the
target ID, which should be the ID of the character set used for the
connection, which I know no easy way to determine.
So the question is: Is there any easy way to get the character set ID,
which was assigned to the connection or do I have to query the ID from
RDB$CHARCTER_SETS using the character sets name?

Thanks for your help and best regards,

Jan
