The Future of Software Development in T24 is Here
Coding in the T24 Globus release started with the INFOBASIC programming language. Almost all core routines/applications are developed using this language.
T24 later evolved from GLOBUS to TAFC and TAFJ. During this transition, the coding changed from INFOBASIC to Componentized, and then to Java. The extensibility framework also uses Python coding now. Depending on the T24 release and framework, banks can choose the required programming language.
