XIB1 exit interface block for connections to IMS DB

The XIB1 exit interface block supports IMS Connect exit routines on connections to IMS DB through the Open Database Manager (ODBM).

The XIB1 exit interface block contains the address of the XIBOD exit interface block, which stores information about ODBM and IMS data stores. You can also use XIB1 exit interface to store user data for use by exit routines, such as the IMS DB Routing user exit routine (HWSROUT0).

You can use the XIB1_USERAREA field of an exit interface block for any purpose. Both the IMS Connect User Initialization exit routine (HWSUINIT) and the IMS Connect DB Routing user exit routine can be coded to use the XIB1_USERAREA field.

The exit interface block is mapped by the HWSXIB1 macro.
