I have a locally saved multiple saved .cls file. How can I bundle them together as a XML file programmatically (ObjectScript) so that I can import in the next environment. Does anyone have a sample code?

Hi,

When we open a terminal in IRIS, we are entering the ObjectScript shell. Within this shell, we can execute IRIS commands, such as:

In review of the previous quarter, several notable developments were highlighted that remain relevant for this quarter’s report.

I'm pleased to announce the publication of gj :: dataLoader, a new VS Code extension that simplifies the task of loading data from local CSV files into SQL tables on your InterSystems IRIS servers.

Here's an introductory video:

As part of improvements regarding CCR usage and usability, certain transitions are now blocked when a CCR Record has undeployed ItemSets for required Environments.

I am trying to add some validation to an existing Record Map, because recently we had some wrong data get consumed into the System and is causing all kinds of havoc.

Using the AI on the Developer community it suggested that I use PATTERN within the Datatype Parameters to force some validation on some fields. I have never used PATTERN before...

When I go to generate the updated Record Map, I am getting the following...

In this article, we will discuss all the debugging tools included in the Microsoft Visual Studio Code IDE.

What will be covered:

• Breakpoints
• Watch window
• Call Stack

Let's start by learning about debugging requirements!

Prerequisites

There are two plugins (extensions) for debugging ObjectScript:

The first is part of the InterSystems ObjectScript Extension Pack. The second is Serenji, a standalone plugin that provides an editor, file manager, and debugging functionality. Both plugins can be installed from the plugin store. To activate key functionality, Serenji requires a license. For this article, we'll use the InterSystems ObjectScript Extension Pack to reduce the learning curve. After you've mastered the basics, you can consider purchasing a paid license for Serenji.

In my previous article, I structured network communications
in these 3 possible layers, and covered the last

• Client <---> Transport
• Server <---> Transport
• Client <---> Server

In fact, you have the most control over the last one.
The IRIS side as a server is yours and under your full control.
Up to now, the Transport layer was assumed to be as passive as a bare wire.

Project Overview / Introduction

Developing and testing REST APIs in InterSystems IRIS often requires a significant amount of boilerplate code. While ObjectScript provides powerful tools for building APIs, writing consistent and repeatable tests can be time‑consuming. This is where IrisOASTestGen comes in.
