Which API can be used for container?

This table shows which APIs are supported over the IPIC and TCP/IP in local and remote mode.

To determine which scenarios are supported by CICS® Transaction Gateway, you should use this table in conjunction with the preceding table Which protocol can be used?

Note:
  • 1 Includes channel application support. All ECI APIs and protocols support COMMAREA based applications.
  • 2 Recompilation with 64-bit compiler directives (-m64 or -q64) is needed for running 32-bit applications in local mode.
  • If you need to run a 32-bit local mode application instead of a 64-bit local mode application, then ctgsymlinks-add32 can be used to convert a 64-bit CICS TG client daemon to a 32-bit CICS TG client daemon.
  • For containers, only the remote mode API is supported for SNA configuration.
