We are using AERTDLI with the C programming language to do IMS transactions. I can open the database and read data, and that works fine.

I can insert with ISRT or update with REPL and it appears to work. However, when I exit the application, the changes roll back and nothing has happened.

I see that with ODBA we cannot use SYNC or CHKP to commit the work and that I should use SRRCMIT and SRRBACK to commit or rollback work.

However, I do not know the correct initialization or procedures to intermix the AERTDLI calls with RSS.

What initializations do I need to perform? Besides the interface to the srrcmit and srrback calls described here:

what are the necessary steps to perform commits?

It seems very strange to me that I can do a successful ROLS and SETS but not a SYNC or a CHKP and so I know that there must be a simple way to perform a commit.

Sample code would be ideal, but a sensible explanation would also be wonderful.

A bit more information:
When I do (for instance) an insert, I get a return of 0 from the AIB status code, a blank PCB mask status code.

However, when I attempt to perform srrcmit I get back the status:
RR_PROGRAM_STATE_CHECK

I am sure it is something simple that I am leaving out.

How do I initialize the RRS so that it knows what states my transactions are in?

We figured it out. It was a JCL problem, linking in the wrong library.
Once we switched to using ATRSCSS everything works fine.
