Mapping Examples

Clearly if you have a fourth article in the trilogy you need to go for the money grab and write the fifth, so here it is!

Note:  Many years ago Dan Shusman told me that mapping globals is an art form.  There is no right or wrong way of doing it.  The way you interpret the data leads you to the type of mapping you do.  As always there is more than one way to get to a final answer.  As you look through my samples you will see there are some examples that map the same type of data in different ways.

At the end of this article there is a zip file with the collection of map

Now, let’s say you can’t access the terminal or simply you just rather execute it from a web interface. In this article, I will show you how to execute terminal commands from a simple web page.

For example, in the image below you see how we execute $zv on a webpage:

This is mostly possible due to the XECUTE command in Caché ObjectSCript. This command takes a string as a parameter and tries to execute it. This is the command used from the webpage, to execute what is being passed from the left navigation menu.

This article contains three snippets of code. Each of which corresponds with a se

Good morning,

First of all thanks for your help and time.

We find ourselves at a crossroads in our development journey, and we're reaching out to the community for insights and guidance regarding a critical aspect of our data management strategy.

Our current challenge revolves around the persistence of data in Globals, specifically when it comes to purging. The issue at hand is that, despite purging, data stored in Globals under the current %Persistent classes remains intact. To address this, we are contemplating a shift from %Persistent to %SerialObject for each relevant class.

There is no need to recompile the routines after the version upgrade, but since the version update overwrites %SYS, user-created INT and OBJ format routines (*.INT,*.OBJ) in %SYS will be deleted. Therefore, you need to be careful. 

MAC, INT and OBJ routines with the following names are not deleted.

%Z*.INT, %z*.INT, Z*.INT,z*.INT
%Z*.OBJ, %z*.OBJ, Z*.OBJ,z*.OBJ

Please note that classes/CSPs need to be compiled after upgrading.

However, if you are upgrading to a maintenance release, no compilation is required. For details, please refer to the document below.

Post-up

I am using the event logger from CSP gateway with level "v9r" enabled, in order to dump the raw content of some HTTP requests.

I would like to decode the body response data, when it's in binary form. AFAIK the event logger will convert characters outside the 32-127 range (EBCDIC) to the "\xff" notation (where ff is a hexadecimal value). Here is an example :

Is it possible to get a code quality stamp of approval on the Open Exchange with an application written in Javascript?
My Iris Whiz application is a browser extension written in Javascript and I wonder if having the code quality stamp missing from my application page will put people off from using it.
 

Does Using the %REST.API Class work with Swagger OpenAPI version 3? I got an error when I tried it on IRIS 2022.2

I just realized that operating system command execution does not work on Windows console if the IRIS service is started using a different user than Local System account (the default).

I always change the user configured in the IRIS service and I believe this is a standard good practice, particularly in "real" environments (be it production, stage, test or development) that are part of Windows Active Directory Domain.

When IRIS service starts using any user, including Administrators members, using "!" or "$" from the terminal prompt to run a OS command fail, nothing happen.

Hi,

I would like to work on the CSS code of the IRIS web portal.

I want to change the color of the upper horizontal banner for all users.

The name of the div is portalTitle. I was unable to locate the CSS classes file in VS Code or in the file system.

Thanks.

I got a problem to resolve, to sum it up I need to extract a function body from a JS file with cos.
I already got the JS code in a string and the function name but I'm kinda stuck as to how to get my function body, I already tried a few things (regEx, counter bracket) but there are comment and strings that block them from functioning. Is there a javascript parser or a good way to do it except by creating a javascript parser?

Hello,

I've been running IRIS in a container for a while with the durable %SYS feature. Previously, I was running IRIS 2022.x version and decided to upgrade to 2023.1. During image build, I create some namespaces and install a FHIR repo into one of them using the following script:

Do ##class(HS.FHIRServer.Installer).InstallNamespace()
Do ##class(HS.FHIRServer.Installer).InstallInstance(appKey, strategyClass, metadataPackages)

However, when I updated the container (stopped the existing one, started the new one), I noticed a peculiar error. I couldn't open the FHIR Configuration Management util

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.   
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.   
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.   
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

I also placed a bunch of Pull Requests on GitHub when I found a problem I could fix.    
Some were accepted and merged, and some were just ignored.     
So if you made a major change and expect a changed review just let me know.

Hello community,

I am trying to see the complete HL7 message for the class EnsLib.HL7.Message.

But it is showing the truncated version only.

I also tried to convert to stream

d msg.OutputToLibraryStream(.streammsg)
s newmsg=##class(EnsLib.HL7.Message).ImportFromLibraryStream(streammsg)

While (streammsg.AtEnd = 0) {
     Set len = 1000
        Set tPrintMessage=newstream.Read(.len)
     Write tPrintMessage
}

But when i print it, its not showing complete message.

Any idea or suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Hi I want to utilise the file adaptor to pick up some PDF documents however I must not delete the source files from the server.  I can see that there is a setting in the FTP adaptor to not delete from server but not in the file adaptor.  Is there an easy way to do this or do I just need to create a custom adaptor that copies the files to a working location and records in a tracking global when I have done this so that I don't process the same file twice?

While processing large HL7 files via ftp the Business Service errors when trying to deleting the file.  All the messages process fine just the delete step errors.  Is there is setting that would help this?

Hi ,

I'm currently working on a BPL (Business Process Language) in InterSystems Ensemble, and I'm facing an issue when trying to call the SendRequestSync() method within a code activity. My understanding is that SendRequestSync() is part of Ens.BusinessProcess, and since Ens.BusinessProcessBPL extends Ens.BusinessProcess, I believe it should be accessible.

However, during compilation, I'm encountering an error stating that the method doesn't exist in the class.

Am I missing something here? Is there a specific way to access SendRequestSync() in the BPL code activity?

Any guidance or insight

Hi,

The system I am working on processes large numbers of records. Inserts, updates and so forth. There are multiple processes that can potentially work on the same table at the same time. 

It is an almost impossible task to try and time these processes to not run at the same time, due to volumes, SLAs, etc.

Every now and then there are a few locking issues, Not many considering the volumes. It is just a bit of a nuisance as we need to reprocess these records later.

All the selects on the processes run at IsolationMode 0 and the transactions are kept as short as possible.

Is there a way t

If multiple InterSystems products are installed on the same system, the latest version of the InterSystems ODBC driver among the installed products will remain registered in the driver manager.

You can change to any driver by changing the registry entry below.

 Please note that running RegFiles.bat does not change the ODBC driver.

The registry entry is as follows.
