CECI/CECS—command-level interpreter


Command-level syntax-checking
transaction (CECS)

Use the CECS transaction, which also invokes the
command-level interpreter, to check the syntax of an EXEC
CICS command, but not to process it.

Start the transaction by entering CECS on the command line
of the screen, as follows:

CECS

Press ENTER. You get a list of all the EXEC CICS
commands. This is similar to the CECI screen shown in
Figure 16 on page 31. Enter the command or its
abbreviation at the top of the screen (next to the ?) and
press ENTER and you get a complete display of the syntax
for that command.

Alternatively, you can enter CECS together with the name of
the command in which you are interested, and bypass the
full list of commands:

CECS command

For information how to use the CECI and CECS transactions,
see the

CICS Application Programming Guide.
