The Company I'm working at uses the same environment (z/OS on IBM Mainframe
and JVM 1.4.2).
I did some testing with the system programmer, by creating a Java CICS
application (simple HelloWorld) that ran using iText 1.4.7. It work fine
without any problems and the document was created on the mainframe.

So it must be something with your configuration and how the CICS Transaction
is called.

Although we do actually create documents on the mainframe but through Batch
process and not using CICS.

We didn't recompile the iText library, it is used as is.

2007/3/18, Andrew Joseph <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

 Hello,
I downloaded the iText-2.0.0.jar and uploaded it to the UNIX side of the
mainframe in binary.

And I ran the first sample program in your online tutorial. The program
successfully compiles on my windows machine and independently runs on the
UNIX side of the mainframe. But it wouldn't run when invoked through CICS.
The only line causing the problem is *document.add(new Paragraph("Hello
World"))*; CICS doesn't respond and just hangs and times out. It runs fine
when I comment that line out!

So I was thinking about uploading the java files and compiling them on the
mainframe to produce class files. There seems to be a total of 391 java
files which I don't think I would need for just a simple program with
tables.

If you have the time, could you please tell me what the minimum java files
I would need to compile on the mainframe please (I don't have ant or any
another grand IDE on the mainframe)

Thank you for your time,
Andrew
