Java in CICS does not add more functionality than other languages since you are
still restricted to using the
JCICS classes for CICS functions and not all java functions or facilities like
applets are supported.
But Java does give the appearance of CICS being in the modern world, even if it
is slower to run on CICS than other languages. C appears to be a much powerful
language and it can run out of regular loadlibs and be compiled
With normal batch jcl.

John,
What does Java in CICS give you that you don't have now?
