PL/1 program name in PUT DATA / PUT LISTwithin CICS runtime

When running PL/I programs under CICS it is sometimes necessary to activate PUT DATAs or PUT LISTs to analyse problems within applications even in production environments.
The output from PL/1 programs with PUT DATAs or PUT LISTs is prefixed by Terminalid, Transactionid and timestamp under CICS. The program name which is issuing the PUT DATAs or PUT LISTs is not being shown in this message prefix. This makes it nearly impossible to determine the issuing program because under a certain CICS transaction there are running hundrets of different PL/1 programs .

    This is a requirement that needs to be raised against Language environment. Unfortunately, Langauge Envionment are not yet on RFE, so I suggest you ask your IBM rep to raise a FITS requirement against LE.

    Hi,
    yes, all these messages are being put out to CESE. I opened this RFE already for PL/1 (RFE 37840) because I didn't find a way to open it for LE under dW. When this RFE is not valid for CICS could you please tell me how to open it for LE ?
    Thanks a lot
    Hans

    Are these messages being output to CESE? If it is the same for PLI as it is for Cobol and C, then this is LE intercepting the PL/1 command and issuing an EXEC CICS WRITEQ TD QUEUE(CESE) in the same manner as it does  for COBOL DISPLAY and C printf statements  prefixing the data to be "displayed " with the termid, tranid and timestamp. In which case an enhancement to LE is needed for this to be changed.
