Hello there Intersystems Developer Community,
This year while at the Global Summit, I came to learn of a component that Stephen Morrison of Intersystems had written that was capable of infusing SVG content into a PDF document. Apparently Stephen was approached about this and was amenable to sharing the code with us as we have recently encountered a similar need. I'm hoping this post will lead to the sharing of this utility code, so that we can determine if it will indeed suit our need.
It is my impression that this code is maybe that being used to perform the print operation on a given widget
Hello friends,
Does anyone know how to make the default checked for the 'Open as read-only' setting in Caché Studio version 5.0?
Find out about the various ways you can learn Caché.
Steve Glassman is on vacation today so in his place I wanted to announce the availability of a new kit for the 2016.3 Field Test. The kit details are: 2016.3.0.628.0
Most of the changes are related to DeepSee, DocDB data models and dynamic objects. You can find a complete listing here:

Java Business Services and Operations
In Ensemble 2016.3 ‘Java Business Hosts’ provides the means to create new Business Services and Business Operations using Java without need for any ObjectScript coding. There are two major reasons to use this capability:
- Add new protocols to Ensemble using available Java libraries.
- Allows Java developers to create custom business services and operations without needing to learn Caché ObjectScript..
At Global Summit there were two sessions and an experience lab covering Java Business Hosts that got a lot of attention and a very positive reaction.

If I have a cache.dat file from a Windows 2012 (64-bit) machine and I want to mount it on a Caché instance running on RHEL, will it work? Assume the versions of Caché are the same.
Hello, I'm new to Ensemble, and my first task is to become familiar with the Production and create a basic outline of it for the users to view (which servers, where are the input files, where are the output files, how many records...). What are the Production tables? I'd like to start there.
Thanks,
Laura
Hi.
I'm facing a problem when I try to use the Runtime Expression below inside the XData Contents:
<html>#($$$Text("Testing!"))#</html>
It compiles correctly, but when I open the page on the browser I get the message "Expression Error" instead of "Testing!".
How could I use the $$$Text macro with Runtime Expressions? Is there a way to make this?
Thanks!
Post updated in August 2025 to include links to IRIS.
I have seen customer problems where the use of a virus scanner running over Caché or IRIS databases was causing intermittent application slowdowns and bad user response times.
This is a surprisingly common problem, so this short post is just a reminder to exclude key Caché and IRIS components from your virus scanning.
Generally, virus scanning must exclude the CACHE.DAT or IRIS.DAT database files and the InterSystems binaries. If an anti-virus is scanning *.DAT files and other InterSystems files such as journals and binaries, then system pe
Hello, one of our application partner, is considering modernizing their old CSP laboratory portal by using Zen Mojo with Bootstrap. They have a lot of experience with COS, CSP and some ZEN. They are new to REST/JSON and have some limited knowledge of javascript - perhaps not enough to the extent used by client framework.
They are trying to create their portal main page with header and footer fixed where at the header level is going to have a menu or navbar and at the footer level they would like to have some options (buttons, search options, text, messages, etc) dynamically loaded during run
NewBie's Corner Session: 5 Operator Precedence

Click on the Caché Cube in your system tray and select Terminal to try out the commands.
Order Precedence means the order in which mathematical operators are executed. In a Mathematical expression, you may have Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction, and Division. Which of these are executed first, second, third, etc.?
The basic Operator Precedence of mathematics is:

When I goto the main developer community page:
https://community.intersystems.com/
When I turn on network monitoring this root page takes over 6s to load, this is with the other pieces of the page already cached on a nice fast network connection, the by the time the other requests are made it is at around 6.7s! A few other attempts were slightly better at around 5s. By comparison if I look at stackoverflow.com I see the browser completely done in <1s, the content itself takes just 433ms.
How can be get this >6s down to something a little more reasonable like <1s, even 1s is pretty slow these days
Has anyone tried to extract a Microsoft SQL Image Column into a JPG file using Ensemble? We currently have a Microsoft SQL Integration Services job that exports a SQL Image column into a JPG and then resizes it. I would like to get this job off of Microsoft so the rest of our team can support it and wondered if we could do it in Cache Object Script using Ensemble.
Thanks

I need to call Ensemble Business Operation by sending authorised (basic auth, cache user) HTTP request (REST-like). How can I achieve that?
Maybe configure a Business Service, but which one has this functionality?
Hi,
Our Cache server(version 5.0.15) has recently crashed. We are in the process of recovery. We had replaced the server's hard disk and trying to install the cache(5.0.15) But getting the following error. Any body show some light on the issue.

Hello developer community developers!
Thanks for all of features you create.
I encourage the one simple issue again and again when posting articles. Would be happy if it get fixed.
When publishing an article draft, the date of the post should be the date of publishing, but not the date when the draft was created.
When the post is created and saved as a draft it usually takes some time to actually finish the post and publish it. In my case, it took 3 days. And when I finally publish the article, it is displayed below any other posts created by this time on the homepage, until I comment this article
Hi everyone!
I am helping a partner to develop a new application and one of the things we are facing is that this WEB application will be used on different time zones.
My first recommendation is that all timestamps should be drawn from $ZTimeStamp instead of $Horolog. That would allow the system to be draw the correct sequence of events even when they are generated on different timezones.
On the other hand, it is sometimes useful to know what was the local timezone at the moment the event was generated to compare to events generated on other systems or to correlate to people's rec
Hi!
I am trying to create a %Installer script and I noticed from our documentation that %Installer's <CSPAuthentication> will only accept:
<CSPApplication> Optional; within <Namespace>. Defines one or more CSP applications; the supported authentication flags are 4 (Kerberos), 32 (Password), and 64 (Unauthenticated).
Is "Delegated" authentication supported? What is it's code?
Kind regards,

NewBie's Corner Session 4 The Plus Sign and Concatenation Operators
Welcome to NewBie's Corner, a weekly or biweekly post covering basic Caché Material.
Click on the Caché Cube in your system tray and select Terminal to try out the commands.
Plus Sign (+) operator
Typically, the Plus sign (+) adds two numbers together. This is true in COS (Caché ObjectScript), but COS uses it in other ways as well.
Set the variable X to a value of +12
Set X=+12
Write X
12
Set the variable X to the value of +"ABC"
Set X=+"ABC "
Write X
0
Here, the Set command sets the variable X to +"
Hi everyone!
I am trying to choose the best collation for a new application that will be running on a spanish locale (Chile).
I can see there are database collations for Spanish1, Spanish2, Spanish4 and Spanish5. What is the difference between them? I can't find anything on our documentation. Should I simply choose the latest (Spanish5)?
Kind regards,

Hi -
Let's say I want to override the HTML that is generated by provided ZEN Mojo Helper Plugins I use the onloadHandler method of my document page, retrieving elements, and modifying them using jQuery syntax.
For example, I'm using bootstrap, and, I want the <button> element automatically generated with the use of the $navbar layout object, to collapse/expand a different <DIV> on my page, to the default one it produces.
Is this the correct spot and approach to use ?
thanks
Steve
Good morning, I am using a tableNavigatorBar on a tablepane. I want to execute the onselectrow method of the tablepane each time the tableNavigatorBar is used to proceed to a tablepane record. Has anyone connected these two component in this way before? Thank you for any hints, input and/or comments.

Hello!
I am trying to install Caché 2016 on a Debian Jessie machine; so I downloaded the latest release from WRC, OS RHEL x86_64, in tarball format.
I untarred it, then launched cinstall; unfortunately a library was missing. I then elected to kill all the processes (which wasn't easy), remove the two users created, and start again.
Unfortunately, for some reason, when I relaunch the install again, the install process still detects the old instance which I installed previously... And I cannot find where this information came from (I removed the install directory by hand entirely).
Where is this
Consider a design where there could be three or four or more servers and there is a need to have these eventually consistent between them all (and not considering database mirroring here).
The current Caché documentation here demonstrates this well using object synchronization between two servers, however it doesn't indicate whether more than two servers can participate to create a "mesh type" deployment. Below is a diagram of what I'm curious to know is possible to implement with Object Synchronization.
