Local fix

Problem summary

  • CICS Explorer does not run on Apple OS X devices.
    

Problem conclusion

  • CICS Explorer supports Apple OS X Yosemite (10.10). To use CICS
    Explorer on Apple Mac, the user must provide their own Java
    Development Kit (JDK) or add CICS Explorer into an existing
    installation of z/OS Explorer or Rational Application Developer.
    Minor bug fixes have been added to support Mac, including a
    larger default setting of MaxPermGen size which gives more
    stable operation using Oracle's Java Virtual Machine.
    This fix will be made available in Version 5.2.0.2 of
    the CICS Explorer.
