Answer / bikash singhal
Eibcalen is the exec interface bloc command that is used to
indicate whether a particular program has been invoked for
the first time.
I.E EIBCALEN = 0 indicates that the program has been
invoked for the first time. For e.g. if EIBCALEN = 0 send
the menu map.

Answer / basha
If EIBCALEN=0 is used to check wheather the program is
executing for the first time r not.
If EIBCALEN=1 means that the program has executed for the
first time and the code look like
EXEC CICS RETURN
TRANSID (EIBTRNID)
COMMAREA (WS-COMMAREA)
LENGTH (1)
END-EXEC.
here from the above code u r passing length with commarea
this time ur EIBCALEN changes to 1.

EIBCALEN stands Executable Interface Block Communication
Area Length
so it counts no.of characters passing from 1 program to
another (i.e how much data we r sending...)
if EIBCALEN = 0, -->user has not enterd any data on the Map
EIBCALEN > 0 -->indicates user has enterd the data on map

how a data in physical and symbolic map gets treated? Since the physical map is much concerned about the screen alignment and the field positions, how the values entered in the field which has PICIN or PICOUT clause in Physical map gets treated? Does that mean datas recieved or sent to the physical map should be constant? How does the data in Symbolic map gets converted with 5suffix namely F,L,A,I and O. For example EMPNO is treated as EMPNOI, EMPNOO, EMPNOA, EMPNOL and EMPNOF. how does this happen in symbolic map. Please provide your inputs on the above and kindly correct me if I am wrong.
