Getting currency code for a security
When I request the currency of a RIC like DTEGn.DE using the Eikon Data API using Python (streaming MarketPrice domain), I don't get back the ISO code (EUR) but a number (978). How can I translate this into the ISO currency code string?
Similar problems are found with other fields, e.g. CF_EXCHNG for the name of the exchange the security is traded on.

The logic of enumerated values you find in the enumtype.def file that can be located in the default Thomson Reuters Eikon location:
\AppData\Local\Thomson Reuters\Eikon User\Cache\UUID\PersistentFiles\Config\RealTime

Thanks. How can I programmatically derive the UUID to be included in the above path?

Try this:
from winreg import *
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
registry = ConnectRegistry(None, HKEY_CURRENT_USER)
rawkey = OpenKey(registry, r"Software\Thomson Reuters\DumpUploader")
val = QueryValueEx(RawKey, "FilePath")[0]
root1 = ET.parse(val.split("LibraryCache")[0] + "LMO.LatestUserAccount.xml").getroot()
enumtype = val.split("LibraryCache")[0] + (root1.attrib['uuid'] + r"\PersistentFiles\Config\RealTime\Display Templates" + r"\enumtype.def")0 -
Thanks, works fine.

Can you please explain how to handle enumtype.def values where "DISPLAY" is not a quoted string, but a hex number enclosed in # characters?
I already researched, that enum values enclosed in “#” are apparently hex characters encoded in Reuters Multi-Lingual Text Encoding Standard (RMTES). Is there a definition of RMTES somewhere so I can write parser/converter? I am using C#, by the way.
