Using content assist with EXEC CICS statements in C and C++ files in the z Systems LPEX Editor
The z Systems® LPEX Editor provides content
assistance for EXEC CICS statements specified in C and C++ source
files.
Before you begin
Setting C/C++ parser preferencestopic. If you want to use a nondefault CICS level for the C/C++ parser, do one of the following tasks before you use content assist:
- For a z/OS® UNIX or local file in a subproject, specify the CICS level to be used by the C/C++ parser. You do this in the CPP options in the Editor Options set of the target environment. For more information on target environments and the Editor Options set, see the following topics:
- For an MVS file, you can specify in a property group the CICS level to be used by the C/C++ parser, and then you need to associate a property group with the data set or the MVS subproject that contains the source file that you are editing. For more information about property groups see the following topics:
About this task

EXEC CICS statements, and any
preferences related to syntax checking on the EXEC CICS Statements preference
page are ignored by the parser.Procedure
To use content assist for EXEC CICS statements, complete the following
step:
Position the cursor within an
EXEC CICS statement and press Ctrl+Spacebar. The
