IMPORTANT RELEASE INFORMATION

This section outlines new features in TOCF Enterprise Edition R16 and
contains important information for upgrading clients. If you are upgrading from
an earlier release of TOCF(EE), please read and understand all the release
information details for each release before starting the installation.
Prior to R09, T24 used the Temenos Connector Server (TCS) to host the
Temenos Open Connectivity Framework (TOCF). This framework includes
adapters, listeners, plugins, formatters, connection pooling, and security. From
R09, T24 can now leverage the application server features for connection
pooling, security, and deployment of the TOCF listeners, plugins, and formatters.
TOCF(EE) offers many performance, deployment and security advantages over TOCF (TC
Server).

Release Highlights
This section provides an overview of new TOCF components and advice regarding any
components which have been replaced or deprecated. Please refer to the system requirements
section for further details.

Release Number Standardisation

In the past release numbers for TOCF, jBASE, T24Browser, and T24 all had different formats,
making it harder for the user to insure that compatible components were installed. From R09 all
components for T24 use a standardised component numbering starting with the product version.
From R11, the TOCF(EE) component has been aligned with the other technology products and
introduced 4 digits into the release / version.
Due to this it will be mandatory to install the new R16 versions of each component. Further details
can be seen below.

Component Updates
From R09, a new update process was introduced that gave a client the ability to find and apply
upgrades on a component basis. This means it is now possible for changes to be isolated and
delivered with fewer fixes and for specific components.
The TOCF(EE) component is not available as a T24 Update. Updates are available for the
dependent components within T24. See the section of this document entitled Error: Reference
source not found.

System Requirements

TAFC jbase_agent

The jbase_agent is the executable process that listens for socket connection from the TAFC RA
and allows a remote client to call T24 subroutines. This is the process you will see running on the
T24 server there will be one listener process plus one process for each connection in the
Application Server connection pool.
