I believe we can write an assembler routine, but I would prefer to write a COBOL program. I would like to dynamically allocate/free storage for very large MQ messages instead of defining in working storage and holding this massive area for virtually 24x7. >> CLICK for Tom's expert response: http://search390.techtarget.com/ateQuestionNResponse/0,289625,sid10_cid492490_tax285603,00.html =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= NEED HELP USING JCA IN JAVA TO TALK TO CICS? | by Robert Harris Dear Ask the Expert, I am using a JCA adapter mechanism in Java to talk to a CICS program running on the mainframe.

Is it true that CICS or LE will treat the DLL as re-entrant even though it is built as non-reentrant? I did not believe it because then the option of having a non-reentrant program is defeated." Think you can help? If so, please share your thoughts and suggestions.
