Using content assist with EXEC CICS statements
in C and C++ files in the Remote C/C++ Editor
The Remote C/C++ Editor provides content assistance for EXEC
CICS statements specified in C and C++ source files.
Before you begin
Setting editor preferencestopic. If you want to use a nondefault CICS level for the Remote C/C++ Editor, 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 Remote C/C++ Editor. 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 Remote C/C++ Editor, 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:
