C++ sample programs

Running the sample applications

The sample programs are supplied as source code in library version.CICS.SDFHSAMP library, where version is your version of CICS®. For example, for CICS Transaction Server for z/OS®, Version 6 Release 3, this is CICSTS63.CICS.SDFHSAMP.

Before you can run the sample programs, you need to compile, pre-link and link them. To do this, use the procedure ICCFCCL in data set version.CICS.SDFHPROC, where version is your version of CICS. For example, for CICS Transaction Server for z/OS, Version 6 Release 3, this is CICSTS63.CICS.SDFHPROC.

ICCFCCL contains the JCL needed to compile, pre-link and link a CICS user application. Before using ICCFCCL you might need to customize it to conform to your installation standards. See also Compiling and executing a CICS Foundation Class program.

Sample programs such as ICC$BUF, ICC$CLK and ICC$HEL require no additional CICS resource definitions, and should now execute successfully.

Other sample programs, in particular the DTP samples named ICC$SES1 and ICC$SES2, require additional CICS resource definitions. Refer to the prologues in the source of the sample programs for information about these additional requirements.
