Learn About How to Develop CICS Web Service Applications.
Hi, Below is my Requirement. I will enter some some cars information on the CICS screen and send to RailInc through web Service call for validating cars information and Railinc validate the cars information and if any of car information is wrong then they will send back wrong cars information through webservice call Resoponse.
Web Service provider To expose an existing CICS program (the sample application called CICS Catalog Manager) as a Web Service involves the following steps: 1. Run the CICS Web Services assistant to generate the required files 2. Extract the existing program interface 3. Run the program LS2WS (interpretative Enablement) 4.
Web service requests URIMAP definitions for Web service requests have a USAGE attribute of PIPELINE. These URIMAP definitions associate a URI for an inbound Web service request—a request by which a client invokes a Web service in CICS—with a PIPELINE or WEBSERVICE resource that specifies the processing to be performed.
I have a COBOL program that needs to get data from a web service. Without using CICS what are my best options? I thought that a C program could read the web service and save it to a file, then the COBOL could read that file. Can COBOL call a web service? The data is about 300mb in size.
A REST (Representational State Transfer) service is a simple form of web service, much less complex than traditional SOAP services. HTTP clients, which can be application programs or even scripts on web pages, can exchange a CICS commarea with the transaction they invoke.
The exercises build skills in areas such as using the supplied transactions and the CICS Explorer, defining and managing CICS resources, CICS web services and interfaces, and debugging CICS applications. This course is applicable to all releases of CICS TS and includes the related Version 5 updates for CICS TS V5.2 and CICS TS V5.3.
Important: Before attempting to run a CICS Web Service on Enterprise Server, review the information in the Configuration Requirements for CICS Web Services topic. Demonstration Applications A list of available demonstration applications provided to illustrate programming techniques and runtime behavior for CICS Web services, along with a description of each of these applications.
