🧐 About

This repository is here to help you understand the basics of cics with some exercices.
Those exercices are made by Global Knowledge, here stand modests propositions.

🏁 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Z/OS
  • A program section
  • A Loadlib
  • A Compiler

Your program section should be a standard PDS.

Your Loadlib section shoul be a specific PDS.

//* You can create the loadlib, with this kind of JCL script.
//SYSUT2 DD DSN=MASTER.PROG.LOAD,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),
// UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(60,20),RLSE),          
// DCB=(RECFM=U,LRECL=0,BLKSIZE=32760,DSORG=PO), 
// DSNTYPE=LIBRARY                               

Be Aware

For cobol program, be sure to give the file name into PROGRAM-ID.

My setup is the following:

• MASTER.PROG.CBL : My cobol folder, including compiler and executer.
• MASTER.PROG.LOAD : My cobol loadlib, see above for specifications.
• MASTER.FILES : My folder dedicated for files read in executions.

Installing

You can transfer, copy/paste the files but it's recommanded to just check them.

⛏️ Built Using
