Host Variables are a rather common programming feature in many implementations of SQL.
A recent question in DC made me aware that in IRIS, Caché, Ensemble, ...
host variables just exist within embedded SQL

> You can supply host variables for Embedded SQL queries only. <

Related examples are included in the available Documentation

This is a description for a workaround if you don't / can't use embedded SQL.

We have some *.mac routines and we need to preserve their source,
as these routines have intellectual authorship and can only be used per session
with the right to use (they cannot be viewed or edited).
The question: how to keep only the routine object in the IRIS namespace,
without interfering with its execution?

Hello all,

First time post and newer to Cache/ObjectScript in general, please keep it in mind!

Hi everyone,
I am trying to create a listen server in Cache 2016 that can capture data from a specific port. Can someone guide me on how to set this up, including handling incoming connections and reading data from the port? Any advice or example code would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I build a simple text string from an HL7 message in the DTL. What target message type and Business Operation should I use to write the text to a file?

I am creating a class to validate JSON body of requests. When I use the method %ValidateObject to check errors in the object, if I define some properties with %DynamicObject or %DynamicArray and use the Required parameter, this method does not work, it ignores validation, only works with properties %String, %Integer etc.

In a containerized environment, you can manage your container time via the TZ variable or via the /etc/timezone and /etc/localtime directories:

Hello,

I'm trying to add another segment to an HL7 MDM message. More specifically OBXgrp(1).OBX. The addition itself works,. When I look at the message in the trace, the segment with the content can be seen. However, it is not displayed as an OBX segment.

Build Map Status = 'ERROR <EnsEDI>ErrMapRequired: Missing required OBXgrp(1) element at segment 6'
'ERROR <EnsEDI>ErrMapSegUnrecog: Unrecognized Segment 6:'' found after segment 5 (TXA)'

Hello I try to implementing this service, and try to convert HL7v2, FHIR on both sides.
https://github.com/grongierisc/iris-healthtoolkit-service/

I download this service and tried run docker-compose but after that I get some error.

You need to install the application first. If not installed, please refer to the previous article

Application demonstration

After successfully running the iris image vector search application, some data needs to be stored to support image retrieval as it is not initialized in the library.

While working on getting JSON support for some Python libraries, I discovered some capabilities IRIS provided.

• JSON_OBJECT - A conversion function that returns data as a JSON object.
• JSON_ARRAY - A conversion function that returns data as a JSON array.
• IS JSON - Determines if a data value is in JSON format.
• JSON_TABLE function returns a table that can be used in a SQL query by mapping JSON.
• JSONPath support - is a query language for querying values in JSON.
