GDS ISSUE CONFIRMATION
Issue a synchronization request on an APPC basic conversation (assembler-language and C programs only).
Description
GDS ISSUE CONFIRMATION issues a synchronization request in response to a GDS SEND CONFIRM issued by a partner transaction.
The return code is given in RETCODE (see Table 1). For a list of return code values, see the Return codes for APPC basic conversations . EXEC CICS® conditions are never raised on GDS commands.
Options
In general, the arguments can be replaced by absolute or relocatable assembler-language expressions.
- CONVDATA(data-area)
- specifies the 24-byte application data area into which conversation-related information is to be moved. A description of the format of the data area is given in the discussion of CONVDATA fields in the Testing indicators .
- CONVID(name)
- identifies the conversation to which the command relates. The 4-character name identifies either the token returned by a previously executed GDS ALLOCATE command, or the token representing the principal session (returned by a previously executed GDS ASSIGN command).
- RETCODE(data-area)
- specifies the 6-byte application data area into which return code information (shown in Table 1) is to be moved.

- gets
the state of the current conversation. The cvda values returned by CICS are:

- SEND
- SYNCFREE
