Prepare CICS and Transaction Server programs

 

To compile and link a TXSeries for Windows NT, V5.1 program using IBM VisualAge COBOL:

1. Set the environment variable (enter the following on one line):

     set CICS_IBMCOB_FLAGS=c:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\Tools\
     Cobol\Copybook\VAcobol;%CICS_IBMCOB_FLAGS%

2. Set the USERLIB environment variable:

     set USERLIB=MQMCBB.LIB

3. Translate, compile, and link your program:

     cicstcl -l IBMCOB myprog.ccp

This is described in the Transaction Server for Windows NT, V4 Application Programming Guide.

To compile and link a CICS for Windows V5 program using Micro Focus COBOL:

• Set the INCLUDE variable:

  set
  INCLUDE=<drive>:\<programname>\ibm\websphere\tools\c\include;
          <drive>:\opt\cics\include;%INCLUDE%

• Set the COBCPY environment variable:

   setCOBCPY=<drive>:\<programname>\ibm\websphere\tools\cobol\copybook;
             <drive>:\opt\cics\include

• Set the COBOL options:

  • set

  • COBOPTS=/LITLINK /NOTRUNC

and run the following code:

cicstran cicsmq00.ccp
cobol cicsmq00.cbl /LITLINK /NOTRUNC
cbllink -D -Mcicsmq00 -Ocicsmq00.cbmfnt cicsmq00.obj 
%CICSLIB%\cicsprCBMFNT.lib user32.lib msvcrt.lib kernel32.lib mqmcb32.lib
