PH59389: DFHSJ1206 WHEN EXEC CICS LINK TO A SPRINGBEAN @CICSPROGRAM WHEN USING JAKARTA EE 9

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• DFHSJ1206 with insert PROXY_CLASS_NOT_FOUND when issuing an EXEC
  CICS LINK to an @CICSProgram of type SPRINGBEAN in a Jakarta EE
  9 application in a Liberty JVM server.
  
  messages.log will contain:
  
  CWWKM0483I: The javax.annotation.PostConstruct annotation is
  ignored on classes in the ... application.  Jakarta EE
  applications must use the jakarta.annotation.PostConstruct
  annotation.
  
  and these exceptions:
  
  com.ibm.cics.wlp.link.LinkableInvocationException: Failed to
  lookup proxy for POJO
  
  javax.naming.NameNotFoundException
  
  com.ibm.cics.server.InvalidRequestException: CICS INVREQ
  Condition(RESP=INVREQ, RESP2=48)

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: EXEC CICS LINK to @CICSProgram fails    *
  *                      INVREQ/48 with DFHSJ1206 issued when    *
  *                      the Liberty JVMSERVER is configured for *
  *                      Jakarta EE 9 and above.                 *
  ****************************************************************
  A Java application is developed which contains @CICSProgram
  annotations so that methods can be invoked using EXEC CICS LINK.
  The Java application uses Jakarta EE 9 functionality.  The
  application is deployed to a Liberty JVM server configured for
  Jakarta EE 9 and above, for example by adding the servlet-5.0
  feature.
  
  When the application is deployed a CWWKM0483I message may be
  issued by Liberty to messages.log indicating that a javax
  annotation has been ignored.
  
  A PROGRAM definition is created by the cicsts:link-1.0 feature
  as expected, however when a LINK is issued this will fail INVREQ
  with a RESP2 of 48.  Message DFHSJ1206 will be issued with
  insert PROXY_CLASS_NOT_FOUND.  Reviewing the JVM server's
  jvmlog or stderr will show a LinkableInvocationException caused
  by a NameNotFoundException.
  

Problem conclusion

• The proxy classes created by the CICS Annotation Processor in
  order to LINK to Spring or CDI applications that use Jakarta EE
  9 and above functionality have been updated to support Jakarta
  EE environments in addition to Java EE environments.
  
  In order to LINK to Jakarta EE applications, they must be
  rebuilt using the version of the CICS Annotation Processor from
  this APAR as well as having this APAR applied to the CICS region
  in which they are deployed.  CICS Explorer will be updated with
  the version of the CICS Annotation Processor by APAR IJ51689.
