Using the EPI resource adapter

With the CICS® EPI resource adapter a JEE component can communicate with CICS transactions that use 3270 data streams for input and output.

The resource adapter provides access to the CICS 3270 interface because each EPIConnection object is treated as a 3270 terminal by CICS. The following table shows the JEE objects corresponding to the EPI terms listed in Terminal characteristics. The CCI interfaces for CICS are in the com.ibm.connector2.cics package.
Note: ATIs are not supported.
