hello, we use a few csp apps in cicsts 3.1. no problems so far.
however csp is out of service. so compatibilty is not guaranteed.

is anybody using csp apps in cics ts 4.1 / 4.2?
we´ll switch to ts 4.2 in the near future.

are there any compatibility issues?

thank you

If the product uses the CSAQRTCA field, yes. This field was made 'fetch-protected' in CICSTS V3.2 and its use will cause task abend. There may be other issues, but uncovering them would require product knowledge which I don't have.
