I have a client/server windows application (written in C++) that uses TCP
sockets between the client program and the server program.
My server program also becomes a client, which uses TCP socket, to connect
to remote server.

I need my server program to connect to a remote CICS system.
What must I change in my server program to connect to the CICS system.

Any documentation/sample programs/etc would be greatly appreciated.

Hank,

What you're looking for is likely the COMTI interface in HIS (unless your CICS
mainframe program talks tcp-ip sockets itself). There are plenty of
docs/examples in the HIS doco.

I was told the CICS minframe connection had to be LU6.2 (that is all I know
right now).
After looking at 'devguide.chm', there was no mention of COMTI. What I
found was APPC which requires SNA/SDK.

Hank - COMTI is doc'd in comticb.chm. That came with HIS 2000 SP1. There's
probably an updated version for HIS2004, but I don't have HIS2004 to hand where
I am right now.

Hank,

If your application is an APPC application, it will require a SNA
connection to the host system. However, if you have Host Integration
Server 2004, you can use IP-DLC to participate in the IBM Enterprise
Extender environment and connect IP to your host system. You can then code
your application to use the APPC APIs on the HIS Client/Server as
documented in the SDK.
