This article is intended to describe how the clinFHIR application can be used to help developers both understand FHIR and to develop applications that utilize FHIR artifacts. It’s not intended to be an introduction to FHIR, but rather describe how clinFHIR can help on the learning / development journey. It’ll be reasonably high level - there is other information available, especially on my personal blog.

I do recommend that everyone who is working with FHIR join the FHIR chat - it is a great way to ask questions of the FHIR community - most of the experts hang out there.

Hi Developers,

We have exciting news! The new InterSystems online programming contest dedicated to all things health-related will start very soon! 

🏆 InterSystems FHIR and Digital Health Interoperability Contest 🏆

Duration: January 15 - February 4, 2024

Prize pool: $14,000

I am able to capture two values in two separate contexts in the BPL. One through an API call and another by looking at the contents of PV1:7. These are context.Prov  and context.ProvName. I am checking to see if the values contained in the contexts are the same and if yes process further and if not stop.

In the IF statement I tried the below but none worked. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. The trace does show that they are the same value so that's not it. 

1. context.Prov = context.ProvName

2.  "context.Prov" = "context.ProvName" and

3.  context.Prov [ context.ProvName

Is there an ObjectScript analog of Find with Match Element Type option? I know there is an  ObjectScript analog of Find in Files, Studio.Project.FindInFiles and Studio.Project.FindInProject, but I failed to locate so far an analog of Edit/Find. I am specifically interested in Match Element Type option so I could search across selected files for globals. Somehow Studio.Project.FindInFiles does not offer this option natively.

Hi all,

When is a Developer Community post not a Developer Community post? When it's just a few sentences wrapped around a link to InterSystems documentation! And what better way to finish up 2021 than by telling you about something cool that's been available since v2020.3? As the ball drops in Times Square, curl up with this:

I have a production that writes x12 file with a EnsLib.EDI.X12.Operation.FileOperation. I am trying to get file name that was used back to the business process. What is the best way to do this?

Hello, we deploy IRIScluster using IKO on Red Hat OpenShift deployed in AWS. For DR, we have another AWS region on stand by. We do daily backups. I run a standalone IRIS in the second region. I want to add it as async member to the mirror to have some essential data available in the standby region. Is this possible?

Hi, developers!

Currently, I'm working on a project that requires highly dynamic event management. In the context of the Java programming language, my first instinct should be to opt for the "Observer Pattern", which is an approach to managing interactions between objects by establishing a notification mechanism. It allows multiple observers to react to changes in the state of a subject autonomously, promoting code flexibility and modularity. If you are not familiar with this design pattern, check out Wikipedia to find more information about it.

While it's natural and commonly used in certain programming languages as Java and C++, in ObjectScript, it's quite a different story.

If the system does not stop for 24 hours, old journal files will be deleted at 0:30 according to the "Journal file deletion settings".

A possible cause of journal files remaining that are older than the "Journal file deletion settings" is that there are transactions that remain open.

In that case, you will be able to delete the journal file by searching for processes executing transactions and finalizing the transactions.

The sample below checks for the existence of open transactions, and if they exist, outputs the target file name and journal record information.

Hi All,

I have ROUTINE for Get Data end of day. Routine Name is "getTicket.mac" . previously i execute at studio using this command to get data

how to implement this condition.

Thanks For your help and time

Hi Team,

I want to create a task in the task manager to manage the member details. so what i have done let me first brief you :-

1) Created a persistent class to store the custom csv details into a sql table.

2) created a business service to take the custom csv file from a inbound folder and use this class (EnsLib.RecordMap.Service.FileService) to use RecordMap.

First i have created CSV Wizard then RecordMap then DTL and map the fields with csv values.

3) then i created a business process (EnsLib.MsgRouter.RoutingEngine) and created a business Rule in business Rule i'm taking the source as

When exporting a %JSON.Adaptor inherited class, undefined %Boolean properties are exported to JSON as "false" instead of null or empty

is there any way to control this behavior?

Class Test.Json extends%JSON.Adaptor
{
    Property bool as%Boolean;
}

set test = ##class(Test.Json).%New()
do test.%JSONExport()
{
    "bool": false
}

The ideal number of table permissions to assign for your users is zero. Permissions should be granted upon sign-in based on the application used for access. For web applications, we have a simple way of doing this by appointing application roles, matching roles, and required resources in the System Management Portal.

ODBC and JDBC connections present a different problem, however, especially when third-party applications are involved. As providers of an ERP system, our customers often wish to be able to employ various software packages to integrate with or report on their data. Many of these programs are capable of running any kind of query. Yet, letting them do that can be devastating to a customer’s data.

Tring to Performing following script in IRIS but do not know how to format Date. Normally, I would use TO_DATE or TO_TIMESTAMP in the actual queue statement below, but since I'm using Prepared Statements, I do not know how to format date in 'values' that is being used in the %Execute. It generates errors. I'm updating an Oracle Database via a SQL JDBC Gateway Connection. Does anyone know how to pass in Dates?

Hello,

I need to make an LDAP query to retrieve information about a specific team of employees. I have a custom service that instantiates a message of type EnsLib.LDAP.Message.Search with a filter matching the search and redirects it to an operation of type EnsLib.LDAP.Operation.Standard. I didn't get any errors, but I didn't get any results either. So I created an operation that inherits from EnsLib.LDAP.Operation.Standard and I overloaded the method to retrieve something. I get this:

ERROR <Ens>ErrException: <FRAMESTACK>ProcessSearch+5^myDSO.operation.requeteLDAP.1 -- - connected as '-'

I am using Intersystems Iris Community Edition. I have created a Rest Api to post HL7 message directly through postman. It is working fine, But I want to create the business service to read the HL7 message from Rest- Api. I tried to create this, but I am not understanding how to do that. Can anybody help me?

Hello Community,

The process private global doesn't impact the $storage. But, Why the value has decreases at first time of initialization. 

Just want to ensure about it.

So far, we have covered how to use ObjectScript to manage users, roles, resources, and applications.There are a few other classes in this package that work similarly to the ones mentioned above.However, these four classes are the ones everyone will have to use to manage their application security.Suppose you wanted to create your own Security management portal for this package.There would be some specific issues to think about for an API.Since the classes use similar methods, we can create fewer API endpoints using indirection.

00:41:54.088:Ens.Director: Queued messages are being saved in the suspended production.
00:41:54.089:Ens.Director: Production 'MemberBPL.MemberProduction' suspended.

I have created the business service, process and operations and message was going through service to operation but some message got queued that'swhy production is not stopping correctly. neither it's deleting not it's stopping fully.

I have also trying purging data under manage production.

Please help me here.... how i can delete this production. ??

Using the below python script I am getting :

Hi 

I'm having a tidy up of code across my multiple namespaces, and have moved the common code to a new database called DEVTOOLS.

Currently, I'm copying code and updating code into new namespaces. 

How might I make code from namespace available to others?

Dear Fellow Cache Developers and Cache Experts,

The company I work for has a Cache Web Application that is built on the Cache ZEN framework.  The application has run very well for almost 2 decades across many versions of MS Internet Explorer ranging from IE5 all the way through IE11.   

However, when Microsoft finally phased out support for IE11, our company was forced to upgrade to MS Edge. While many of the old Cache ZEN features still work well, there are several, four specific scenarios listed below, that do not work as expected with MS Edge.

Hi,

To integrate InterSystems IRIS for Health with Open Source Drools(as rules engine), any advice? Thank you!

A few months ago, I faced a significant challenge: streamlining the handling of business logic in our application. My goal was to extract the business logic from the code and hand it over to analysts. Dealing with a multitude of rules could easily result in a code littered with countless "if" statements, especially if the coder lacked an understanding of cyclomatic complexity. Such code becomes a source of pain for those working with it—difficult to write, test, and develop.

We recently went through an Audit of our Security Policies and Procedures when it comes to IRIS. As a result of that Audit, we need to make adjustments to the way that Security is setup within IRIS. I have already done my changes on our TEST and DEVELOPMENT environments, but now I am trying to plan out how do we make these changes in Production.

These changes include moving away from the PWS, setting up Apache/Web Gateway, moving to LDAP instead of using Delegated Authentication, updating Web Applications, updating Resources, updating Services, etc...

To minimize the impact on our system, does

Good morning,

First of all thanks for reading this question.

We have been asked by a client to check if our Soap Service has charset / encoding "UTF-8".

We have been investigating the class "EnsLib.SOAP.InboundAdapter".

We only observe one reference to the charset as "Set tCT=$S(tCST:"binary/CST; charset=UTF-8"

Inside the method: WriteResp
