Youcan consider thisas first step youcan use to integrate any T24 applicationwithany other

this to make the below:
1- SendSMS notificationtocustomersbasedonspecifictransaction
2- Sendemail tocustomer/userforspecificevent
3- Generate xml filesfromrawdata
4- Generate PDFfilesfrom T24
5- Andlotsof otherapplications
6- Assumptions:
7- This example isvalid for TemenosT24 R11+ with TAFC engine

Build your Java application using ECLIPSE
Preface
Thisexample willbe made verysimpletofocusonlyonhow to integrate withthe Core through
Java Application,howeverIusedthismethodmyself onmanyserviceslike makingautomated
SMS notificationsfromCore banking,automatedemail sending,conversionbetweenJSON and
XML formats,AML scanningandmany otherservicesthatcan be callednow easilyfromT24 via
Simple Javaapplication
Build your application:
Throughthe belowstepswe willmake simple javaapplicationthatreceiveanumberfromT24
and returnsback the same numbermultipliedbyitself.
Steps:
1- Openeclipse andcreate new JavaProject
2- Create newPackage forthe application,inthiscase Iname it“com.mkh”
3- Create newclassand name it“Power”
4- Create New method inside the created class and Name it “GetPower2”
5- Make sure the input value and return value data type is String

8- Move the newlygeneratedjarfile toyourbnk.runfolderonthe servervia FTPbinary
mode
9- Modifythe file “.profile”of the t24 OS userincase of UNIX/AIX/Linux andaddbelow
line:
exportCLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/T24/bnk/bnk.run/test.jar
in case of windowssystem,please add the same to environmentvariables
10- From telnetterminal(putty/netterm, …) Openeditorwindow usingJEDcommandto
write the programthat will execute the firsttestapplicationasbelow:
JED TESTCALLJ
11- Copyand paste the belowprogram:
