Java development using JCICS

You can write Java™ applications that use the CICS® Java class library (JCICS) to access CICS services. JCICS is the Java equivalent of the EXEC CICS application programming interface (API) that is provided for other CICS supported languages, such as COBOL.

Using JCICS, you can write Java applications that access CICS resources and integrate with programs written in other languages. Most of the functions of the EXEC CICS API are supported. The library is supplied in the com.ibm.cics.server.jar file with CICS and with the CICS Explorer® SDK.
