ASK THE EXPERT | Trying to get TCP/IP traffic out of CICS 

One user is trying to implement an HTTP post from CICS to a Web
server. He can make an HTTP call to CICS but it looks like he can't
make an HTTP call from within CICS. He's going to try linking from a
COBOL module to a Java program running within Unix services. Is this
possible? Is there a better way?
