The Art of Mapping Globals to Classes 1 of 3

Looking to breathe new life into an old MUMPS application?  Follow these steps to map your existing globals to classes and expose all that beautiful data to Objects and SQL.

By following the simple steps in this article and the next two you will be able to map all but the craziest globals to Caché classes.  For the crazy ones I will put up a zip file of different mappings I have collected over the years.  This is NOT for new data; if you don’t already have existing global please just use the default storage.

Hi All! Wanted to share this new video we've published, which might be of interest to people in the healthcare space. Achieving True Interoperability in Healthcare Systems is all about going beyond the typical "syntactic" interoperability and understanding what's needed to bring that interoperability to the next level in healthcare.

At least three different ways to process errors (status codes, exceptions, SQLCODE etc is given in ObjectScript. Most systems have status, but for a range of reasons exceptions are more convenient to manage. You spend some time translating between the various techniques dealing with legacy code. For reference, I use several of these excerpts. It is hoped that they will also support others.

///Status from SQLCODE:
set st = $$$ERROR($$$SQLError, SQLCODE, $g(%msg))  //embedded SQL
set st = $$$ERROR($$$SQLError, rs.%SQLCODE, $g(rs.

We are trying to script a High Availability Shutdown/Start script in case we need to fail over to one of our other servers we can be back up within mins. Is there a way to configure the startup procedure to Automatically Stop/Start the JDBC server when shutting down or starting up cache? is there an auto setting we can change?

Thanks

Hi,

I need to add a large number of users to TrakCare.

Is there a programatically way of adding users to TrakCare using ObjectScript?
If so, can you please send me an example.

Thanks 

Hi all,

I am trying to understand how to work with Analytics but I get the message "Analytics is not enabled in the USER namespace"

How can I enable that for my namespace?

I am currently using iris-community:2023.1.0.185.0.

Thanks in advance!

Over the years, I have found myself needing to create multiple HL7 messages based on a single inbound message. Usually these take the form of an order or result from a lab. Each time I have approached it, I have tried to start from scratch under the belief that the previous attempt could have been done better.

Recently, the need arose again and I was able to create a solution that I wasn't ashamed of. My main concern was that I would always either find myself getting buried in a BPL, or use ObjectScript and attempt to edit messages using the SetValueAt Method for the HL7 Message Class.

Hi all,

I might be losing my mind or do not understand how ObjectScript does string comparisons, but the following does not look right to me.

Is it really possible that you can't compare non-numerical strings other than with an equals or not equals?

Hello!

We have an integration that reads a file from labresults and needs to be transformed into another file format.

The transformation and incoming file correlate against a schema. In that schema there is a type declared as %xsd.double.
As these values ​​are labresults, we are not allowed to change the expression of the value in any way. For example, 1.0 must not become 1. And 2 must not be written as 2.0. As well as 0.3 must not be written as .3 and so on.
I am not allowed to change the type in the schema to %String. I am not allowed to change anything in the schema at all.

How would one jump to a particular line by typing a tag and adding an offset in VS Code (zMethodName + n)? I know this can be done in Studio and would be particularly helpful for debugging error messages.

Newbie here...

I am looking to use fhir to gather patients in our end point that have a certain diagnosis and or certain insurance.

Is this what fhir can be used for?

In the past I have done the normal SQL query/extract to CSV file.  Looking to use fhir for this for future.

Thanks in advance for your time

Hey Community,

More than 700 applications are already available for everyone to download on the InterSystems Open Exchange. 

And now it's time to announce the best developers and the most downloaded apps for 2022!

Let's take a closer look at our heroes and their apps:

Why I've decided to write this

Once again I had a challenge that costed me some time and a lot of testing to reach the best solution. And now that I've managed to solve it, I'd like to share a little bit of my knowledge.
 

What happened?

In a namespace there were a lot of similar classes, so to make them simpler there were a superclass with comon properties. Also, there are relationships between them. I had to export one of them to JSON, but I couldn't change the superclasses, or I would break down the flow of many other integrations.

InterSystems announces its second developer preview, as part of the developer preview program for the 2023.1 release. Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2023.1 and there are also brand-new capabilities, such as production-ready support for Columnar Storage, ability to use Bulk FHIR, and support to MacOS 13 Ventura. Some of these features or improvements may not be available in this current developer preview.

Future preview releases are expected to be updated biweekly and we will add features as they are ready.

Hey Developers,

Enjoy watching the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

Hi Guys,

How to create a user that can have access to only one specific Zen page of an application?

Thanks

Any ideas on how this can be solved?

I need to use it with some Unicode text, in Docker image. And get this error. And documentation says nothing about it.

USER>do $zf(-100, "/SHELL", "echo", "test")
test

USER>do $zf(-100, "/SHELL", "echo", "test тест")

DO $ZF(-100, "/SHELL", "echo", "test тест")
^
<TRANSLATE>

I know that it works in some Linux environments without Docker, but no idea where is the difference. 

Morning all,

I got access to the new Bing this morning and thought I would try out some things on it. Below are a series of screenshots of what I searched and the results.

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for an easy to allow certain user to only have access to one CSP or Zen page from my application, my thoughts is to create a role to only access that specific page then allocate that role to my user, but can find the Zen page so I can allocate it to a role? 

Thanks

Hi Guys,

How can I restrict access to a webpage to a specific user only?
