CICS remote development feature for Java

The CICS® remote development feature for Java™ provides an ECI resource adapter for use in Liberty running on a developers workstation. The feature enables developers to rapidly test and debug Java applications that use JCA APIs to invoke programs in CICS TS. When ready, the application can be deployed into Liberty running in CICS without any further changes to the application.

The feature connects to a CICS region by using an IP interconnectivity (IPIC) connection that is defined by using the TCPIPSERVICE resource. The trace facility can be used to identify problems with the data sent and received from the program in CICS TS.
