Thank you all for your valuable answers.

I found this presentation in the meantime:
http://www.newera.com/INFO/11-2017_Web_Enablement_Toolkit.pdf

and this:
http://ibmsystemsmag.com/mainframe/administrator/systemsmanagement/client-web-enablement-toolkit/?page=1

and these pages from IBM:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.ieac100/ieac1-client-web-enablement.htm

all covering the same piece of software;

this will be my way to go, IMO.

Thanks again,
kind regards

Bernd

I am using the http/https protocol enabler in assembler. Coding is simple.
Works well. I only use it outside of cics. Btw, i tried it with other
protocols like syslog and it works just fine.

Hello all,

some months ago, I wrote a program which allows to call webservices
(HTTP POST or HTTP GET)
from batch programs, written in C or PL/1. The program (subroutine) is
written in C
and uses the standard TCP/IP socket interface, available in the
classical z/OS environment.
I am doing all the conversion work myself, and I build the necessary
HTTP headers, and
analyze them on return. This works without problems.

When running under CICS, I provide the same interface to the callers,
but I use the
EXEC CICS WEB CONVERSE calls instead (because CICS does not allow me to do
standard socket calls, when under CICS control).

Now the problem is: I am limited to HTTP at the moment, but customer's
politics
requires me to do HTTPS in the middle and long term.

I have no idea what I need to do to provide HTTPS communication in the
batch and
in the CICS case; what are my options and what is the easiest migration
path?

Thank you all,
kind regards

Bernd
