You must configure your CICS® regions
to process JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).
Before you begin
You must install the
CICS TS Feature Pack for Mobile Extensions and
satisfy any prerequisites. For more information, see
Installing the feature pack.
Procedure
Follow these steps for each CICS region that you want to support JSON processing:
- To use CICS as a service provider for JSON requests or
to use the linkable interface to transform JSON, define and install
a JVMSERVER resource with a JVM profile that has the JAVA_PIPELINE=YES option
specified. An example JVMSERVER resource definition called DFH$AXIS
is provided in group DFH$AXIS.
- To configure CICS as a service provider for JSON requests,
see Creating the CICS infrastructure for a JSON service provider.
Results
You have set up your CICS region
and z/OS® UNIX to process JSON.
What to do next
Create a service provider application using the JSON assistants,
or write CICS application that use the linkable interface to transform
JSON. For more information, see
JSON assistants and
Transforming
application data and JSON using the linkable interface.
