This little guide would help you start running Ensemble REST services in no time.

Hi, would really appreciate your advice on how I can restart the mirror-monitor. I've followed the instructions and restarted the mirror monitor, and still the status seems to be down. Can you point me to some resource or steps that I can follow ?

I logged into %SYS terminal and restarted the mirror monitor and it says that it is running

Added new System Default Setting  for Production (not Host) setting.

However, Production setting is still the same. I have tried restarting Production and instance, to no avail.

How do I specify System Default Setting correctly?

Intro

Recently I reread this article by @Bernd.Mueller. It's about calling DELFATE function from zlib library. In this article I'll demonstrate several different approaches to callout libraries, we'll build the same functionality (compress function) in several different languages and compare them.

Hey Developers!

Advent of Code 2018 is over! Thanks for participating in our small but productive COS marathon!

I recently had to diagnose a networking problem I was having when attached to our corporate network.   I was seeing an unknown bridge network being defined that shared the same IP address space as the company network thus blocking access to company resources.  This bridge network was separate from the Docker0 bridge network which the docker engine sets up.  Docker was configured with a bip (bridge ip) address to prevent docker form using an address space that create a conflict.

Hello everybody.

Thank you

An Outlook on Scaling Out

When working at the Caché command prompt I sometimes want to run an operating system command on the server host. By prefixing my command line with ! or $ I can do this with ease. The following examples are from 2017.1 on Windows, but the feature is available on all versions and platforms:

The following code walks a DOM using %XML.Node. It also prevents %XML.Writer to change whitespace. Run the code using the class method "test":

Class objectscript.walkDOM Extends %Persistent
{
	ClassMethod dfs(node As %XML.Node)
	{
	    s entrynode=node.NodeId
	    do {
	    //element nodes with one whitespacetyped child are the ones we want to change
	    if (node.NodeType=$$$xmlELEMENTNODE){
	        s snode=node.NodeId     
	        if (node.MoveToFirstChild())            
	            {
	                i ('node.MoveToNextSibling()){
	                    i (node.NodeType=$$$xmlWHITESPACENODE){
	                        s node.NodeType=$$$xmlTEXTNODE
	                        s node.NodeId=snode
	                    }
	                }
	        }
	        s node.NodeId=snode     
	    }   
	    if (node.HasChildNodes()){
	        d node.MoveToFirstChild()
	        d ..dfs(node)
	    }
	    } while (node.NodeType'="" && node.MoveToNextSibling())
	    s node.NodeId=entrynode
	     
	}
	 
	ClassMethod test()
	{
	  set xml = "abcdefg<![CDATA[   ]]>"
	 
	  s reader=##class(%XML.Reader).%New()
	  do reader.OpenString(xml)  
	  set writer = ##class(%XML.Writer).%New()
	  //do some magic
	  d ..dfs(reader.Document)
	   
	  w !,"with indent=1:",!
	  set writer.Indent = 1
	  do writer.OutputToString()
	  do writer.Document(reader.Document)
	  w writer.GetXMLString()
	  set writer.Indent = 0
	  w !,"with indent=0:",!
	  do writer.OutputToString()
	  do writer.Document(reader.Document)
	  w writer.GetXMLString()
	}
}

Hi

We have a few large PDFs coming into our engine - when it goes thru the Process and hits the Data Transformation it gets cut off before it sends it outbound to the receiving system.

Whats the best way to handle large PDFs?

Hi Community!

Thank you for being with InterSystems Developer Community yet another year! We appreciate it very much!

We want to know how helpful DC for you today and how could we make it better. 

Could you please go through this short 5 min survey which will let us know what do you think about DC and what could be improved.

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 

Sincerely, 

Your InterSystems Developer Community Team

InterSystems products (IRIS, Caché, Ensemble) already include a built-in Apache web server. But the built-in server is designed for the development and administration tasks and thus has certain limitations. Though you may find some useful workarounds for these limitations, the more common approach is to deploy a full-scale web server for your production environment. This article describes how to set up Apache to work with InterSystems products and how to provide HTTPS access. We will be using Ubuntu, but the configuration process is almost the same for all Linux distributions.

Hi Community!

We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming webinar "Using Blockchain with InterSystems IRIS" on 20th of December at 10:00 (Moscow time)!

I am trying to use Entity Framework with Visual Studio 2017. After following the Intersystems documentation ("Using the Caché Entity Framework Provider") I still cannot see the data source in Server Explorer.  Any ideas why?

Is it possible to know the names of the sub-directories in the case of an FTP type service adapters?

I know how to do it for the file type.

Or can you transfer files from an FTP directory and sub-directories to a server by keeping the structure?

how do you change a date format to dd-MMM-YYYY in cache

Hi, 

I'm working on my first SQL service using the SQL inbound adaptor, and I'm having trouble. 

I've been following the documentation but it errors on  set req=##class(ESQL.request).%New()

Would anyone be kind enough to share a working example?

Kind regards,

I've been looking at the idea of developing a Time Travel Debugger utility.

It would take a debug target and have a few options such as stack depth and disclude system code.

The debugger would either be started from an external tool, or triggered from a line of code inserted into a method that I want to record.

The debugger would execute the code from start to end and record the full stack on each step to the configured depth.

A visualisation tool would provide a set of controls to play the recording forwards and backwards and provide various ways to search and jump to points in the recording.

I want to test automatically that HL7 business operation works correctly in error conditions. One is to test CE acknowledgement. I have planned to implement test production which includes business services for different situations (AA, AE, CA, CE, timeout, late response etc).

How should I implement HL7 business service that always returns CE (commit error)? I have tried but it keeps returning "AA".

In Persistent class, a data global is created which holds the data similar to the table created . Through terminal we can add more records to this table according to the structure of the table. How are the records reflected back into the table which has been set at global . In other words How are the global mapped to the SQL table?

Hello!

I'm trying to get files from FTP server.  Bellow my code:

This article was written as an attempt to share the experience of installing the InterSystems Caché DBMS for production environment. We all know that the development configuration of a DBMS is very different from real-life conditions. As a rule, development is carried out in “hothouse conditions” with a bare minimum of security measures, but when we publish our project online, we must ensure its reliable and uninterrupted operation in a very aggressive environment.

Hi,

The fault message definition is missing from my service WSDL. I would like to add these bold styled text to my WSDL. How can I do that? The aim is when I get  the WSDL of MyService with ?wsdl URL the response contains the bold styled text.

For example:

Hi,

We are using Cache 5.0,  we use Cache telnet and Other emulator (using telnet connection) to launch the applications.

Is there a way to identify the  type of device is used?.  Based on the emulator  I can few custom changes to be applied.

Hi,

I want to test the node.js interface to iris with trial sandbox. The node.js documentation refers to get de node package from the instance bin directory. As I'm trying to use the trial sandbox I don't have access to the directory. Please let me know where I could download iris.node package.

Thanks,
