Hi,

What is the difference between TWALENG and TWASIZE.

We have setup a new tranaction. How do I know if TWA allocated for the new transaction and TWASIZE. Is there any CEMT/CECI commands?

just the quirks of CICS namings

You define the TWA size using the TWASIZE construct,

You get the length of it using
EXEC CICS ASSIGN TWALENG(...)

but beware and do not confuse things
a TWALEN exists also but it refers to the
THREAD WORK AREA LENGTH for language environment

Thanks Enrico.

Apart from that is there any CEMT/CECI command to know the TWASIZE defined in PCT?

Hello,

The 'TWasize' definition can be checked using 'CEDC View TRANSaction'; though sites generally restrict access to CEDC screens.
