Developing with the FEPI API

Application developers can use CICS® API commands to develop FEPI applications. This information describes how to develop FEPI applications, including the interfaces that are available and how to handle conversations and errors.

Before you begin

Before reading this information, you should be familiar with the FEPI concepts and facilities described in FEPI concepts and facilities.

About FEPI examples

In the information about FEPI key stroke and screen-image applications and FEPI data stream applications, several FEPI examples are referenced. The examples are confined to simple conversational applications. However, you can use the data interface whatever the application structure. See FEPI application design for all the possibilities together with details of conversations, error handling, and system considerations.
