Framework classes

The CCI Connector for CICS® TS provides implementations of the framework classes called ECIConnectionFactory, ECIConnection, and ECIInteraction. However, the standard ConnectionFactory, Connection, and Interaction classes should be used, rather than the CICS-specific implementations. For guidance information about programming these classes, see the CICS Transaction Gateway: Programming Guide. For reference information, see the Sun Javadoc generated from the ConnectionFactory, Connection, and Interaction classes' source code.

Note that not all the information in the CICS Transaction Gateway: Programming Guide is applicable to the CCI Connector for CICS TS. The following properties of the ConnectionFactory class (and of the CICS-supplied ECIManagedConnectionFactory class) are ignored by CICS TS:
  • clientSecurity
  • connectionURL (in CICS TS, this is always local:)
  • password
  • portNumber
  • serverName
  • serverSecurity
  • userName

Specifying a value for any of the above properties has no effect.
