Supported CICS API's

[Migrated content. Thread originally posted on 08 December 2011]

Do microfocus support ERASE on the EXEC CICS SEND TEXT MAPPED command
and
the MONITOR and PERFORM functions on the EXEC CICS ENTER TRACEID.

The MONITOR is used in conjunction with mainframe CICS Event Pojnt Monitoring, as is the PERFORM option.

If yes do we any example for this.
Many Thanks

For questions like this, please specify the product, version, and platform (OS and version) you're using.

That said, all of our mainframe emulation products include a section in the documentation describing what APIs and options are supported.

For example, in Studio 6.0 SP2 WS1 on Windows, if you look in Programming | Mainframe Support (CICS, IMS, JCL) | Reference | CICS Support | Command Reference | API Calls, you'll see that ERASE is not an option for SEND TEXT MAPPED. (The IBM CICS 4.1 documentation confirms that it's not an option for mainframe CICS either.) You'll also find that while ENTER TRACEID is supported, the MONITOR and PERFORM options are validated but not processed.
