Available‑character‑sets
Available‑character‑sets might be used to allow selection of a character set name from a list of all character sets supported by the Teradata Database.
Refers the TDP whose TDP identifier is addressed by the QEPTIDP field and has length specified by the QEPTLEN field. Since they do not apply, the QEPRQST and QEPTOKEN fields must contain binary zeroes.
Returns the names of the character sets available on the server. The response consists of four fixed fields followed by a variable number of character set names. As many whole character set names as will fit into the response area whose length is indicated by QEPRALEN will be returned. If all names are not returned, another query may be issued specifying the returned token to indicate that names after those already returned are processed.
