VS/Cobol interpreter - Execute in CICS Transaction Server 3.1 and above
VS/Cobol Interpreter allows programs written and compiled with VS/Cobol to execute in CICS Transaction Server 3.1 and above.
When activated in “REAL” mode, VS/CI automatically intercepts VS/Cobol programs and provides the necessary environment for programs to function properly in CICS TS V3.1. In CICS TS V3.1 and later, execution mode is forced to “REAL” and VS/Cobol programs run with VS/CI support.
With the “Automatic program detection” feature of VS/CI, programs written in VS/Cobol are automatically included and handled by the software. If this option is not specified, users must customize an include list to select VS/Cobol programs processed by VS/CI. Generic and character masking features are available to control inclusion and exclusion of programs from the VS/CI process.
