Mohammad 1) EXEC CICS support?
The z390 macro processor has built in parser to convert EXEC CICS space delimited commands into standard macro comma delimited calls to EXEC macro which in turn routes macro call to macro for each supported EXEC CICS command such as SEND, RECEIVE, LOAD, LINK, XCTL, GETMAIN, FREEMAIN, PUSH, POP, RETURN. All the EXEC CICS support macros are in z390\cics directory. For more doc info link visit: http://www.automatedsoftwaretools.com/z390/z390_EXEC_CICS_Compatible_A ssembler_Support.htm 2) COBOL compiler support? There is no COBOL support as a part of z390. However the z390 SOA TCP/IP sockets messaging could be used to connect z390 client programs with server programs supporting mainframe COBOL and other languages on the same or different processors on TCP/IP network. 3) VSAM LDS support? I will add LDS option as it is really one of the easier options since all the J2SE NIO file support is linear based to start with. I'm interested in your DB2 comment as the next project after z390 VSAM is to add SQL support for new JDB built into J2SE 6.0 plus other SQL data bases such as DB2, MS-SQL, Oracle, etc. Don Higgins mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://don.higgins.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
