Hey everyone.

I'm currently looking at a process where we're utilising the Class Ens.StreamContainer, and was looking to do some deletions outside of any purge routines.

Having been burned before, I wanted to make sure that deleting the container also deletes the contents within.

From looking in the class, the %OnDelete ClassMethod appears to be removing an index from a search table and nothing more.

I am currently experiencing frustration with trying to Authenticate an Active Directory account through JDBC as the Hospital System moves from OnPrem SQL Server to using Azure SQL Server with Microsoft Entra Authentication.

Microsoft cannot give me a straight answer of what is required from a JDBC standpoint to authenticate from a Linux environment.

The Power of Indexing in Database Tables

When working with databases, most developers understand the concept of an index and why it's used: to speed up data retrieval. But the real impact of indexing often becomes clear only when you compare scenarios with and without it.

Do you Know what Happens Without an Index?
Imagine a table with three columns: Name, Age, and MobileNumber.

Hey everyone,
Might be a stupid question, but i was trying to set the ContentLength of the %response object in my website.
In different places (like the onPreHttp / onPostHttp etc) but none seems to work.

The reason behind it is to send a more accurate representation of the actual data I send, instead of having the overhead of the broker that adds more characters , I want the exact length of the response accounting only for the data that I actually returned.

Hello, I have a problem with a call and I would need some help.

When I call an API with the SendFormDataArray method of the EnsLib.HTTP.OutboundAdapter adapter, I pass it a %Net.HttpRequest object and I receive the following error:

ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <SUBSCRIPT>MatchSuffix+1^%Net.HttpRequest.1 ^%qPublicSuffix("")

I have correctly entered the url in my business operation and I pass it in the last parameter of the SendFormDataArray method. Do you have any idea, please?

Hi Community,

It seems our Developer Community AI has decided to take a coffee break ☕️ (probably after answering one too many tricky ObjectScript questions).

The importance of the coffee break

For now, it’s gone mysteriously silent and refuses to generate answers. We suspect it might be rethinking its life choices after reading one too many deeply philosophical ObjectScript questions.

Hi, I am coming unstuck with a current mapping from HL7 to XML using the DTL editor with an XML schema (imported by XSD).

My output keeps prefixing the elements with "xsd_2" despite this not being defined in the targetnamespace within my XSD file.

Would anyone have any idea as to where this is creeping in? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

My XSD namespace etc are setup as follows:

Hi all,

I’m working on a data transformation in IRIS where I need to calculate the difference in hours between two timestamps stored as %TimeStamp.

Example:

Set startTime = "2024-07-12 08:30:00"
Set endTime = "2024-07-12 15:15:00"

I’d like to calculate the number of hours (with decimals, like 6.75) between them. What's the recommended way to do this in ObjectScript? I’ve seen examples using $ZDATETIME, but I’m not sure if that’s the cleanest approach.

I am receiving a FHIR response bundle back with a resource of patient. Using fromDao, I attempted to take the stream and put it into FHIRModel.R4.Patient but it is not mapping correctly. When I attempt to take FHIRModel.R4.Patient and write it out using toString(), all I am seeing is the resource

{"resourceType":"Patient"}

so the response is not mapping correctly to FHIRModel.R4.Patient. How have others handled this? Do I need to translate it to an SDA since it does fit the model format?

WSDL for a CDC vendor was provided with a URL using a custom socket (non 443). Everything generated fine, but when making calls to their https:// URL that has their custom port in the URL - no response comes back. The assumption is, their server isn't even processing the request, as Postman does using the custom https://path.to.server:NNNN port in the URL.

Greetings,

As a long time Cache developer is there a way to get a copy of the Cache Studio that supports IRIS 2024.3? I do not have a WRC account? I need Studio just to experiment, not to build commercial software.

Thank you,

Everardo

The new version of InterSystems Testing Manager which I released last week brings @Timothy Leavitt's cool
Test Coverage Tool to VS Code, and is my entry for the 2025 Developer Tools contest.

Here's a teaser screenshot showing how the unit tests of the IPM project don't yet cover a feature that apparently allows an IPM repository to override its sort order.

While upgrading old Ensemble and Health Connect applications to V 2024.1 we are installing many webgateways since the private webserver is deprecated.

Configuring the "Default Parameters" we can determine the "Event Log Rotation Size" but not the count of preserved logfiles. So even if the webgateway cuts the logs in pieces they could fill up the disk space entirely for there seems to be no cleanup-job for old logfiles.

What is the recommended way to deal with this situation?

Do I have to create a schduled job on OS-level?
