MQ Client in CICS
Posted: Wed Feb 09, 2011 9:56 pmWe have a vendor who currently uses SNA to send transactions to CICS, but soon they will be sending them to MQ Server instead. We have an enterprise service bus that can connect to MQ and we have Ivory CICS Server to do the transaction on CICS, but that makes a lot of extra hops.
Is possible and/or feasible to try using a client directly on CICS without having to install MQ server on zOS? I have seen some sample Java clients that have been run in IMS, but I have not found enough information on the full setup required to make that work in CICS.
I found this site lists some possible clues of how to get it done ... http://capitalware.biz/mq_code_java.html
Any ideas are appreciated!
