jBASE Dateline June 2008
THE LATEST
NEWS
Announcing the Immediate Availability of jBASE 4.1.6!
jBASE International have reached an agreement with
TEMENOS resulting in the immediate release of jBASE 4.1.6.
jBASE
4.1.6 is the latest release of jBASE 4.1.5.x with a new version number. It will
benefit the jBASE International customer because it will be totally independent
of the TEMENOS T24 application. This enables TEMENOS to support its T24
customers using jBASE 4.1.5 and allows the support teams from TEMENOS and jBASE
to keep pace with the relentless progress demanded by the diverse commercial
jBASE customer base under jBASE 4.1.6.
For jBASE
International customers already benefiting from the use of jBASE 4.1.5 this will
be a standard scheduled release update with no impact at all on their business.
For more information contact your jBASE
representative or email
sales@jbase.com.
SUPPORT UPDATE
jBASE has been
listening to feedback from our valued partners and are pleased to announce that
jBASE 3.4.10
is now supported on AIX 5.3. For more information contact your jBASE
representative.
TECHNICAL TIP -
jBASE RELEASE 4.1.6
BASIC runtime errors
can be logged to the jbase_error_trace file. This is
controlled by the environment variable JBASE_ERRMSG_TRACE,
which must be set to 1 to allow the logging to occur.
This can be tested by
calling a program that will cause errors to occur and checking
that the details are logged to the jbase_error_trace
file. An example of a program that would cause such errors is:
a = 1234
b = 'a'
CRT "Test1: divide by
0":a/0
CRT "Test2: use a non
numeric":a/b
CRT "Test3: invalid or
uninitialised":c/a
This is especially
useful as a debugging tool if you have the
JBASE_ERRMSG_ZERO_USED and/or JBASE_ERRMSG_NON_NUMERIC
environment variables set.
Caution: Setting
JBASE_ERRMSG_TRACE causes all manner of trace messages to
end up in the jbase_error_trace file, so use caution when
leaving this set as it may cause the jbase_error_trace
file to grow very rapidly thus hindering performance.

PARTNER NEWS
36 successful new TEMENOS T24 implementations using jBASE
technology during 2007
 T24
is a functionally rich, scalable, integrated, modular banking system
from TEMENOS. One of the prerequisites for TEMENOS T24 is the jBASE
open connectivity technology integrated with the banking
functionality and coupled with an open database such as Oracle,
IBM’s DB2, Microsoft’s SQL Server or jBASE, which provides clients
with numerous options with regard to future direction.
In 2007, 36 new clients went live with TEMENOS T24
while in 2007 the total number of projects supported by the company including
migrations to T24 from earlier versions or its predecessor, GLOBUS, number more
than 100. Most of these banks achieved implementation times of less than 12
months.
Customers ranged from top
tier global financial institutions to microfinance and community banks including
Volkswagen in China, a specialized retail implementation that went live in just
seven months; CMMB, the first T24 implementation to include TEMENOS’ risk
product, T-Risk; and Bank of Ghana, which involved the replacement of multiple
legacy systems in just nine months to integrate and centralize the bank’s
operations.
