trying importing classDefinition to Iris via LoadStream() fails with zLoadStream+1^%SYSTEM.OBJ.1 ----> InterSystems.Data.IRISClient.IRISException : Exception thrown on server (code = 1192)...

Code is here; use any valid exported ClassDefinition as File to test that:

    public static void loadClassFromStream(this IRIS iris, string txt)
    {

        // IRISObject globalCharStr = IrisStreamExtensions.FromTxt(iris, text);
        var fp = @"C:\tmp\TestClass.xml";
        txt = File.ReadAllText(fp);
        
        var stream = new MemoryStream();
        var bytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(txt);
        stream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
        stream.Flush();
        stream.Position = 0;
        
        var qspec = "/display=none /compile=0 /recursive=0 /relatedclasses=0 /subclasses=0";
        var errorlog = "";
        var loadedItems = "";
        
        var parameter = new object[]
        {
            stream, 
            qspec,  
            errorlog,
            loadedItems
        };

        try
        {
            iris.ClassMethodStatusCode("%SYSTEM.OBJ", "LoadStream", parameter);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            throw new IrisException("%SYSTEM.OBJ", "LoadStream", e);
        }            

    }

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.

Anyone else is passing through this issue?

Since last week when I create a new class definition, It is created without the full name into the signature class and I have to put it by myself.

I thougth that should be any configuration about the language patterns, but I didn`t found it.

Thank you all

I have a Postgres table which should be migrated to IRIS. The table has a computed column, like:

CREATE TABLE example_table (
    id VARCHAR(10) PRIMARY KEY,
    normalized_id VARCHAR(10) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (LPAD(id, 10, '0')) STORED
);

IRIS also has the LPAD function but I can't figure out how to achieve the same result using pure SQL DDL.

I'm generating a XML (Enlib.EDI.XML.Document) using a Subtransformation within a DTL. Writing this XML-Document to the filesystem works good, but in the XML-File is missing the header line (<?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?>):

What do I have to do to get the header in my XML-File?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi developers!

There is a very neat variable in IPM ${ipmdir} that lets packages be installed on a particular IRIS server and ensures that the data and resources they bring don't mess around as ${ipmdir} variable during the installation transforms into:

iris installation dir/ipm/package_name/version/whatever_you_install_here

It is very convenient, e.g., to bring some data and resource files that can be useful during the installation setup, e.g., via FILECOPY. Indeed, suppose you bring some csv_file, e.g. titanic.csv via FILECOPY as:

<FileCopy Name="data/titanic.csv" Target="${ipmdir}data/titanic.csv"/>

or even the whole folder of data in the source code repo into the package:

<FileCopy Name="data/" Target="${ipmdir}data/"/>

And in the case of Iris in Docker it resides in:

/usr/irissys/ipm/package_name/1.0.0/data/titanic.csv

This is all great, but is there any way for the installed code to determine the location of the data files? It'd be neat to let the installed app know somehow where is the data that came with it? Could it be the method in the IPM client that will resolve ${ipmdir} for the app? 

Over the last year, the CCR development team has prioritized changes to the CCR application to better expose and encourage best practices for using CCR. This article will highlight some of the areas that we've focused on:

• Organization Dashboard
• System Alerts
• Branch Hygiene

In each of these areas, we have increased the visibility of potential CCR usage issues and given users tools to proactively address them.

I know this is not recommended but I need to investigate a bug and to modify some system classes. When I set the "Mount as read-only" flag to "off" IRIS says:

ERROR #43: the write daemon failed to set the READ/WRITE flag in IRISLIB
This database is mounted as read-only due to 'Failed to access iris.lck file'!

If you want to generate JWT from x509 cert/key, any operation (including reading) on %SYS.X509Credentials requires U on %Admin_Secure resource.%Admin_Secure is required because is persistent, and it's implemented this way to prevent all users from accessing private keys.

If  resource is not available at runtime, you can use the following workaround.

Upon reviewing the code for JWT generation, I discovered that the JWT code utilizes solely as a source of runtime data for PrivateKey, PrivateKeyPassword, and 

SETassigns value to the variable at RUNTIME.

#DIM declare the variable and it's Data Type at COMPILE TIME.

As%String

or #DIM? Your design, your rules.

New to using Analytics and using Dashboards. We have this Report, SQL Query that lists out the Activity per Data Source in Health Share Provider Directory. Instead of running it as a report, because it takes a while to run, was wondering if there is a way to do this as a Dashboard instead.

How can I take the SQL from this report and create a Dashboard instead?

I’m working on XML Digital Signature in InterSystems IRIS using %XML.Security.Signature

I start with an XML document that is created by parsing an input XML string, and I want to digitally sign this document using an X509 certificate.

Set##class%SYS.X

During signing, I got the below error:

Canonicalize error: Signature not found

From debugging, it appears that the signing process attempts to locate a <Signature> element in the XML document by its Id, but no such element exists at that point.

This leads to my main question:

Is it expected that XML doc already contains a <Signature>

Iris Health dashboard images not loading after first install, getting 404 on /csp paths, is there any setup I am missing?, found this old community post: https://community.intersystems.com/post/debugging-why-management-portal… but the links are outdated, can anyone please guide me to proper documentation. Thanks in advance.

I have a business service that actively reads data from a remote Postgres database. OnProcessInput opens a XDBC (actually JDBC) connection, executes an SQL query, fetches several thousand rows, iterates the resultset, and closes the connection. On each iteration I also need to update each source row in the remote database using PreparedStatement.

In other words, in every OnProcessInput call I have a long running SELECT statement and several thousands small UPDATE statements.

InterSystems IRIS is built on an architecture that separates the logical organization of data (namespaces) from its physical storage location (databases). Understanding this separation and the distinction between Namespaces and Databases is crucial for effective data management, security, and especially, high-performance data sharing.

In this article, I will discuss these foundational components and provide a practical guide on leveraging global mappings to share native data structures (globals) across different logical environments.

Databases: Physical Reality

A database represents the physical reality of where the data is stored on the disk. First and foremost, it’s a file in a file system called IRIS.dat (e.g., <Install folder>\mgr\user\IRIS.DAT). The maximum size of this file is 32TB. It is the container for all the actual data and the code. Databases are managed by the IRIS kernel, which handles caching, journaling, and transaction logging at the physical file level.

When you install InterSystems IRIS DBMS, the following databases are installed automatically:

Hello,

We are accessing an InterSystems Cacha database from Microsoft SQL Server using a linked server over ODBC (ODBC35). Queries are executed using OPENQUERY.

On the SQL Server side, there is a linked server property called Query Timeout. By default it is set to 0 (no timeout). We are considering setting it to 15 seconds and would like to understand how Cache behaves in this scenario.

I have a new project to store information from REST responses into an IRIS database. I’ll need to sync information from at least two dozen separate REST endpoints, which means creating nearly that many ObjectScript classes to store the results from those endpoints.

Could I use ChatGPT to get a headstart on creating these classes? The answer is “Yes”, which is great since this is my first attempt at using generative AI for something useful. Generating pictures of giraffes eating soup was getting kind of old….
