Loader domain exits XLDLOAD and XLDELETE

There are two global user exits in the loader domain. XLDLOAD is invoked when a new instance of a program is loaded into storage, before the program is made available for use.

XLDELETE is invoked after an instance of a program is released by CICS® and before the program is freed from storage.

For LPA-resident programs, the exits are still invoked when a program is acquired or released, even though the program is not physically loaded or freed.

These are both information-only exits. Any changes made to the exit parameters by the exit program are ignored by CICS, as is any return code which it sets.
