Programming applications
Programming applications describes the IBM TXSeries for Multiplatforms application programming interface (API). It explains how to prepare application programs that use CICS on AIX and Windows systems. Programs can be written in COBOL, PL/I, C, or C++.
The following tasks provide you information on how best
