is it possible to run CEMT commands from a java program.
I run a java program tru CICS (in webinterface) and can retrieve information about my current transaction/program.

but i want to use the same program to e.g. see the status off all transactions running. (CEMT INQUIRE TRANS DIS)
Can this be done?

thx

It must be possible as i've read it from the book "CICS System Programming Reference" sometimes ago.

Please refer to this link [url]examples.oreilly.com/cics/CDROM/pdfs/cicsts/dfha800.pdf[/url]

I think you can make use of the INQUIRE TRANSACTION command.

i can use the INQUIRE TRANSACTION command in JAVA with TransactionName(). But this is only from my current transaction.
I need to find a way to do this for all the transaction with all the regions

You can use the INQUIRE TRANSACTION to retrive information for all the transactions...,provided you have a way to code or get all the transaction names in the program.

I am not sure whether this will work to get the transaction names for the regions other than the region in which the program is supposed to run.

I guess What you are aspiring for is virtually to have a copy of the CSD file of every region in your program...

But in any case, what would drag you to do this?

Well this is an assignment i'm on. To check if it can be done.
It has to be a java application. It has to be able to get all the transactions and see if they are enabled/disabled and be able to disable/enable them.
This from all from a webinterface.

So i have to be able to get all the info into the program indeed.
