MVS Direct API - CA-View Support

The Computer Associates View (formerly known as SAR) API was designed to provide today's PC application programmers an avenue to access MVS CA-View resources. Whether interfacing with existing legacy systems or writing new client-server based applications, you will be impressed by the capabilities that this API provides.

How It Works

The API uses the Computer Associates SARSAM application programming interface to send commands to one (or more) CA-View databases running on MVS. It also receives back the output from those commands so that the caller can evaluate the success of the command string and extract information for future processing.
