I'm glad to announce we have recently released our second Starter Pack. This one is for the Mining Industry, and the first was for Industrial IoT (OEE).

But what does it exactly mean?

InterSystems IRIS Starter Packs (thanks to Joe Lichtenberg that helped with this text)

InterSystems IRIS Starter Packs are codebases built by an InterSystems partner using InterSystems IRIS Data Platform that shortens the time to develop a complete application that addresses a specific industry or technology challenge.It is not a completed application.

Hello everyone,

I'm facing an issue i would like to resolve :).

I have a BPL which throw a DTL. My DTL has many reasons to raise an Exception.

I would like to catch this exception within my BP with a SCOPE but it does not work.

The BP seems to catch its own Exception but does not care at all of my DTL Exception.

So, is it possible to use the SCOPE in my case ? Otherwise, how can I handle the exception in my DTL ?

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Matt.

Hello All,

I am exploring Ens.Alert to generate alerts for Server exceptions.

I noticed that in the business operation, if you have your code inside try/catch and if your catch doesn't explicitly invoke $$$systemerror then Ens.Alert is not invoked.

Similarly, in the Business process if you have <catchall> then Ens.Alert is not invoked on error.  How can I invoke Ens.Alert from <catchall> ? 

Another thing I noticed is, if I dont catch exceptions in BO and BP and have "Alert on error" ON for both, if there is an error in BO, 2 alerts are generated for same error,  one from BO and one from BP.

Hi Developers!

Here're the technology bonuses for the InterSystems IRIS AI contest that will give you extra points in the voting.

Hi All,

I have to do intersystems iris objectscript code vulnerability scan.  I tried in synck vulnerabilities but it's not supported for the xml file. Can someone guide me? Anyother tools are there to do this?

I create a object.

SET nlsoref=##class(%SYS.NLS.Locale).%New()

So I want to verify if the attribute 'test' exists in the object, I tryied use $data

write $data(nlsoref.test)

But show this message:

<PROPERTY DOES NOT EXIST> *test,%SYS.NLS.Locale

Someone can help?

Best regards, Flávio.

I am calling a business rule from one of my business processes and I noticed that when the business rule reports an error that the business process calling that rule just stops without any errors. Resultingly it fails to trigger the scope - catch-all construction that is surrounding the business rule. I know that it is possible to view the errors in business rules in the business rules log, but I really like to push an error message to Ens.Alert or something similar when my business rules report an error. How do I achieve that?

Hello,

I work with IRIS for Health 2020.1 and I attempted to set up Enterprise Systems to populate Message Bank. I see entries in Message Bank Event Log from the defined Enterprise Systems.  I can browse Messages going back before I set up Enterprise Systems using Enterprise Message Viewer. However, I find no messages in Message Bank Viewer. Do I need anything extra to archive messages?

Hi.

Is it possible to convert the object of type %SerialObject to $List form? I'm using embedded class in unique index and I want to use autogenerated method Open to  access the object - parameter should be in $List form...

Tnx.

Hi, I need to assert that a string is a certain value.

d $$$AssertEquals("String value", "Value expected", "Should return correct value")

When running this I get an INVALID OREF error.

Is there any Assertion method I can use where the first parameter can be string like above, rather than an instance of a class as I can see on the documentation?

Thanks,

Andy.

Hi Community,
This post is to introduce one of my first project in COS, I created when started to learn the language and until today I'm keeping improve it.

The CosFaker(here on Github) is a pure COS library for generating fake data.

cosFaker vs Populate Utils

So why use cosFaker if caché has the populate data utility?

Ok the populate utility has great things, like the SSN Generator for example, but what to do when you have a field with a long description of a product? How to check if that table will list the emails or if that calculated property will count the days of the last user interaction.

Please welcome the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

Hi all.

I'm currently working with a system needing results from a lab system, and they can only accept a single OBR per R01 message.

The R01s from the source have multiple OBRs, so I need to be able to send a message per OBR.

I found a similar post where the example was using a BPL, however there's some additional trickery processing that I already have working within an ObjectScript Business Process and would like to avoid trying to recreate in a BPL.

Any sample code will be greatly received 

As you know the $ZUTIL method is deprecated and I'd like to replace this calls for the corresponding ones.

In my case I'm looking to replase $ZUTIL(12)  by ##class(%Library.File).NormalizeDirectory("")

But the response is not the same while $ZUTIL points to mgr folder NormalizeDirectory points to my Logic Databse Folder.

Is there a way to proper do this replacement?

Thanks a lot

Productions often need to receive REST requests.

Here's how to do that.

1. Create proxy Service:

/// Empty BS we would use to send Produciton requests
Class production.ProxyService Extends Ens.BusinessService
{
}

2. Add it to production as RESTService (or any other name).

3. Write your rest broker (docs, more docs)

4. In your handler method create the message and call target BP/BO like this

Include Ensemble
Class test.REST Extends %CSP.REST
{

XData UrlMap [ XMLNamespace = "http://www.intersystems.com/urlmap" ]
{
<Routes>
<Route Url="/launchProcess/:processName" Method="POST"

Hi, I think it's a simple question this at the end of something fairly complex

I've a DTL to go to a target class in context 

I get the error CLASS DOES NOT callrequest=##class(context.ConnectDocumentRequest).%New()'

I attempted to add code to initate the context with 

set context.ConnectDocumentRequest =##class(Penn.EDT.Messages.ConnectDocumentRequest).%New()

I know there is something basic i am missing but have not seen covered in any tutorials i have done. 

I see an example using Assign I tried assigning my context as 

$CLASSMETHOD("Penn.EDT.Messages.ConnectDocumentRequest","%New")

What is it i am

Hello, first of all thanks for your time reading this question,

We would need some help, we would need to delete a %GlobalBinaryStream which is a variable called "pOutput" which is being sent from a REST Service to POSTMAN

Currently we have tried:

               set pOutput = ##class(%GlobalBinaryStream).%New()
                //set pOutput = msg
                while(msg.AtEnd=0){
                    do pOutput.Write(msg.Read())
                }
                do msg.Clear()
                Quit $$$OK

                do pOutput.Clear()
                $$$LOGWARNING("Despues de

We need to upgrade from Healthshare 2016.2 to HealthConnect latest but we are too far behind the current version to do an upgrade in situ.

So I need to create a new instance of HealthConnect and the copy across all the database definitions, namespaces and classes.

I know its possible to script this stuff and pull all the definitions out of the old Healthshare system and then apply them to the new HealthConnect instance.

Has anyone done anything like this before that they would be happy to share with me so I could use it as a starting point rather than re-invent the wheel again?
