Region Detect

[ek1975]

Hello, I tried googling without much luck. So I thought I would post here. I have a java program that could be called from Batch or CICS

When the java program executes, I would like to detect a couple of things
1) Is the java program being called from a batch or a CICS program or in other words - Is there any command to detect if the java program is executing under TSO or CICS?

2) When my program executes under CICS, I can get the region name using methods from dfhjcics.jar and I can tell if the program is executing under DEVL or PROD. It would be nice if there was a similar option to tell if the program is executing under DEVL or PROD under TSO. Is there one? Thank you for your time.

Take a look at the methods in class com.ibm.jzos.ZUtil. You can get the jobname, stepname, procstepname. Also, you can read environment variables, which you might use.

Finally, you can use ZUtil.peekOSMemory method to read memory from the CVT, etc to get about anything that you want.

Thank you very much, I will take a look at those methods.
