Chapter 5: Customizing the DB2 UDB Option for CICS Messages

Add or change messages for a parse exit routine

If you customize the DB2 UDB Option for CICS by adding a parse exit routine, you can add additional messages to the AMD2 message table to report on the processing of your routine. A sample parse exit routine ships with the DB2 UDB Option for CICS with a corresponding message number 33400 (“Error 33400”) in the AMD2 message table.

You can modify the sample routine entries in the translate and text tables or you can create new entries. The changes to the AMD2 message table for these two options are shown in the following table.
