In this article I'll cover testing and debugging Caché web applications (mainly REST) with external tools. Second part covers Caché tools.

You wrote server-side code and want to test it from a client or already have a web application and it doesn't work. Here comes debugging. In this article I'll go from the easiest to use tools (browser) to the most comprehensive (packet analyzer), but first let's talk a little about most common errors and how they can be resolved.

Hi,

I use ZLANGC00 and ZLANGC01 for shortcuts at programmer level to some frequently used dev tools. Is there a way to pass 2 arguments to a command?

Example:

ZZQD "Queue1" // Equivalent to D ZZQD^%ZZLANGC00("Queue1") to display messages in queue1 (ZZQD is my own code in %ZZLANGC00)

but if I wanted to type ZZQD "Queue1" $H-3 to call ZZQD^%ZLANGC00("Queue1",$H-3) can it be done or do I need to write something to manipulate the argument? So ZZQD "Queue1-3"

I'm using the EnumerateJobStatus query of class Ens.Util.Statistics to obtain the LastActivity value of a Business Host.

I would expect that this would return the timestamp of the last message received by the BH, understanding that any connect/disconnect activity would reset that timer. However, the time returned appears to actually be the time at which Ens.MonitorService generated the alert and is not directly related to anything that happened in the BH itself.

I can probably work around this by subtracting the BH's configured InactivityLimit value from the timestamp, but this seems like it

Hello, I need to determine the best way to split a class containing multiple methods(about 20), into multiple classes in which each method is in its own class. I am wondering if there is another way other than manually creating the different classes, and copying each method into each class. Doing this in Intersystems Studio.

I'm trying to learn how to use the IKO for deploying solutions to Kubernetes. In my current project I'm trying to deploy the IAM onto a K8S context. Are there directly usable samples of the yaml file I need to use for that?  

Hi,

I have created two CSP pages. One is the Login page and the other page show the patient details from the database.

I want to set the session dynamically just after the successful login and after login it will be redirected to the Patient Details page. If session timeout, then wants to redirect back to the login page.

Thanks in advance.

In Windows, set the processes with the following image names as monitoring targets.

[irisdb.exe]

contains important system processes.
* Please refer to the attachment for how to check important system processes that should be monitored.

[IRISservice.exe]

This is the process for handling IRIS instances via services.
When this process ends, it does not directly affect the IRIS instance itself, but stopping IRIS (stopping the service) is no longer possible.

[ctelnetd.exe]

%Service_Telnet Starts when the service is enabled and becomes a daemon process to access IRIS via Telnet.

Hi everyone,

I'm currently developing a TCP inbound Service to read some XML sent from a TCP Operation that uses EnsLib.TCP.CountedOutboundAdapter.

1) I have tried EnsLib.TCP.Inbound adapter but that gives this error:

ERROR <Ens>ErrException: <METHOD DOES NOT EXIST>zinitConfig+7 ^Ens.Host.1 *%New,EnsLib.TCP.InboundAdapter -- logged as '-'
number - @'
Set ..Adapter = $classmethod(..#ADAPTER,"%New")'

Due to this, the adapter is unable to start listening for incoming connections.

2) When I use EnsLib.TCP.CountedXMLInboundAdapter or EnsLib.TCP.CountedInboundAdapter instead, then the adapter starts

Hello All, 

I'm trying to sign some custom JWT with x.509 certs but running into a problem with the signed JWT containing some information I need in the JOSE header.

Is there a way to get the "X5C:[]" header included in the signed JTW? IS this as easy as setting something like the following

Set JOSE("x5c") = "public key"

Thanks

I am running into an error trying to send an Alert Email to test the functionality of IRIS HealthShare Health Connect  2022.1 compared to Cache HealthShare Health Connect 2018.1.3. I was trying to send an Alert email, when I am getting the following error on my EMailAlert operation which is using EnsLib.EMail.OutboundAdpater.

I verified the message to the EMailAlert was populated, so what could be throwing this error...

I found the problem to be with osuwmc.AlertEmail that was created to

I'm trying to update the hosts file on Windows in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

I know that in Linux if you update the hosts file, you sometimes need to restart the Network Manager for the changes to take effect.

So my question is that is there a similar thing that we need to do on Windows or do the changes take effect as soon as the file is saved?

Apache Superset is a modern data exploration and data visualization platform. Superset can replace or augment proprietary business intelligence tools for many teams. Superset integrates well with a variety of data sources.

And now it is possible to use with InterSystems IRIS as well.

An online demo is available and it uses IRIS Cloud SQL as a data source.

Sync operation in registry is not receiving any request from ODS. I have tried to synchronize from Registry management however, sync operation doesn't receive any request.

It is clear how to get the request header value with a specific name:

Class My.RestController Extends %CSP.REST
{

ClassMethod processRequest() As %Status
{
    #dim request as %CSP.Request 
    set request = %request
    set h = ##class(%REST.Impl).%GetHeader("...")
    ...    
    return $$$OK
}

But I can't figure out how to enumerate ALL the request headers (and also get all values).

This is a  rather personal view of the history before Caché.
It is in no sense meant to compete with the excellent books from Mike Kadow discussed in an earlier article.
We have different histories and so this is meant to create a different perspective of the past.

InterSystems is putting more emphasis on promoting our Early Access Program (EAP), in which users volunteer to work with new software before it becomes generally available. In fact, we will once again be promoting the program at Global Summit.  

The software could be a full InterSystems IRIS release, but is usually focused on a new capability about which we want to collect feedback. The terms and requirements for joining an Early Access Program vary with the the software being evaluated.

Signing up is really simple. Go to this link and fill out the form.

Do you want to get updates for the EAPs?

I have a client who' recently acquired a business that was running software that uses InterSystems IRIS as the database back end. In the process of preparing to have my company's software installed the client formatted the hard drive of his server, wiping out his data. I can't convert the data to MS SQL without a functioning database. He had a backup on an external drive, which I have copied down to my local machine. I loaded up  a virtual machine with Windows 10 Pro, I installed Docker and IRIS.

The Jupyter Notebook is an open source web application that can be used to create and share documents that contain live text, code, equations and visualizations. It is maintained by the people at Project Jupyter.

Jupyter name comes from the core supported programming languages that it supports: Julia, Python, and R.
It allows users to write code in "cells," which are blocks of code that can be executed individually or together.This makes it easy to test and debug code, as well as to organize and present complex analyses.

Migrating data to another system takes two steps.

1. Migrating class definitions

To migrate the class definition to another system, export it to a file in XML format or UDL format (extension .cls).

The export procedure in Studio is as follows.

Tools > Export

> Select multiple classes you want to migrate with the [Add] button

> Check [Export to local file]

> Confirm that the file type is XML, enter a file name, and click [OK].

After this, import the exported XML and UDL files in the studio on another system. The import procedure in Studio is as follows.

Tools > Import from Local
