SAS/C Cross-Platform Compiler and C++ Development System User's Guide, Release 6.50

Using the ccp Command

The SAS/C CICS Command Preprocessor can be invoked either directly or by the sascc370 or sasCC370 compiler driver.

Invoking ccp Directly

The following syntax is used to invoke ccp directly:

ccp [options] in_file.ccp

The options that may be used are described in Option Descriptions .

The in_file.ccp specifies the name of the input file. By default, the name of the output file will be the input filename with a .c suffix, unless the -o option is used.

Using sascc370 or sasCC370 to Invoke ccp Automatically

If your source file suffix is .ccp , the compiler driver uses the ccp command to translate any CICS commands. The ccp command is invoked and the output is compiled, with either the C or C++ compiler. For example, the following command could be entered to compile the file named myfile.ccp :

sascc370 -Tcics370 -Krent myfile.ccp

In this case, myfile.ccp is preprocessed for CICS commands. The resulting file is compiled with the C compiler and linked with the CICS target libraries to produce a.out .

sasCC370 -Tcicsvse -Krent myfile.ccp

In this case, myfile.ccp is preprocessed for CICS commands. The resulting file is compiled with the C++ compiler and linked with the CICS VSE library to produce a.out .

To pass options to the CICS preprocessor during compilation with sascc370 or sasCC370 , specify the compilation phase prefix, -WP , followed by the CICS option. For example, this command compiles myfile.cpp and passes the CICS -d option to the CICS preprocessor:

sascc370 -Tcics370 -WP,-d myfile.ccp

The options that may be used are described in the section Option Descriptions .

Linking CICS Preprocessed Files

You must use the -Tcics370 or -Tcicsvse options on the compiler driver to cause cool to use the CICS or CICS VSE target libraries. However, if you are using the CICS external call interface ( -x option), you should link with the standard resident library, STDOBJ , instead of the CICS libraries.

Note: When you use cool to link a CICS application, you will receive warnings about unresolved references to the following: DFHEI1 , DFHEAI , and DFHAI0 . These warning messages are expected. The output object file from cool must subsequently be moved to the target mainframe and linked with the CICS Execution Interface stubs. [cautend]

Note: For CICS, use of the -Aclet option is not necessary when you use -Tcicsxxx . However, use of one of the compiler options -Krent or -Krentext is necessary for CICS programs. See the section on compiling SAS/C programs for CICS under MVS/TSO in the SAS/C CICS User's Guide for more information. [cautend]
