We are running at CICS TS 2.2 and I could not find a way to make it work.
Eventually I found some appropriate documentation which suggested it wasn't
possible. I subsequently found a reference (I think via this list or the
CICS-List) talking about new features in CICS TS 3.1, which included DLL
support.

So, was this feature enabled in CICS TS 2.3 and my information is wrong? Or,
was there some PTF that enabled the feature? Or are you running a higher
version of z/OS (1.3) than we are, which contains the necessary support? Or
did I simply miss a trick?

I have just remembered that the lack of support in CICS was XPLINK not
strictly DLLs. However, the C compiler insists on XPLINK with DLLs.
Therefore, the end result is that I cannot use our C code with DLLs under
CICS. The COBOL compiler IIRC generates DLLs without XPLINK, hence COBOL
DLLs are supported.

Have I still missed something?
