Hello,

This is my first question in this list.
I saw some questions here, and understand that here I can have a answer.
It's about the limit of number itens in a TSQueue of 32767.
If have two bytes of lentgth , this number can be 61440.
So if what I think is correct, why CICS don't see this number ?

Thanks

Because it is signed?

Hello William,

Sorry about disturb, but when the field is signed, we lost half of the byte,
It's correct ?

Thanks

Hello,

I suspect what you lost is 1/2 of the range of the value. The sign is only the high order bit for a signed binary field.

No, you lost just the high order bit, which like Dick said is "1/2 of the range of the value"......
