Verifying the operation of CICS Web support

A sample application DFH$WB1A is provided to help you test the operation of CICS® Web support. The sample application constructs the following HTTP response:
DFH$WB1A on system applid successfully invoked through the CICS Web Interface
where applid is the application ID of the CICS system in which CICS Web support is running.
To run the sample program:
  • Install a TCPIPSERVICE definition that specifies the CICS-supplied sample analyzer program DFHWBADX.
  • At a Web browser, enter a URL that connects to CICS Web support using the following URL components:
    Scheme
    HTTP
    Host
    The host name assigned to the z/OS® image
    Port number
    The port number specified in the TCPIPSERVICE definition
    Path
    /CICS/CWBA/DFH$WB1A
    The components of a URL has more information about how the components of a URL are delimited.

DFH$WB1C is another sample application. It has the same function as DFH$WB1A, but is written in C.

Sample application DFH0WBCA demonstrates how you can extract information from an SSL client certificate and construct the response as a CICS document with the EXEC CICS DOCUMENT commands. A definition for this sample application is provided in the DFH$WBSN resource definition group.
