Hi Developers!

Thank you for participating in the 2019 DC survey!

I'd love to share some results and answer some questions which were raised in the survey.

NPS 54

You give us 54 - which is really cool! Thank you for your trust, we'll try to prove it this year again!

I've got a pretty standard dataListBox on a pretty standard Zen page running a pretty standard query. My problem is that I can't get the onfocus or onclick events to fire.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I am working on Ensemble 2017.2.1 .
I need to export my security settings into an extern database, in order to make a report.

I've created a Business Operation with an SQL Adapter into a Namespace, but I don't know how to get every security data from "%SYS" Namespace ( SQLPrivileges , Resources , Roles , Services , Users ... ).

I dont't want to use the terminal and the ^SECURITY routine, because i don't want to store a XML file on the server.

Hi

I'm using this query "Config.MapMirror.List" To get information of the list of servers that are in the mirror system.

I'd like to know how can I know which of the list is the primary and which is the failover or async member.

Is there a way to do it with this query? Is there another query to get this info?

Thanks a lot

Hi,

On a persistent class, I have defined an %OnNew method that validate some properties with appropriate status code for each kind of error.
Question is: how do you catch the specific error when %New is called on this class?

Surrounding %New method with a try-catch not seems to work.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I am very pleased to announce that the Readmission Demo has been released as open source. Many thanks to the Solution Factory team that worked hard on making this possible.

Here are the changes:

Hello everybody,

My question would be, how is the recommended way to access Windows shares, also in view of future demads. Of course, I'm also happy about an explanation or code snippet of how the library, which is mentioned in the following , can be used under cache.

The classic jcifs library is easy to use, also with Cache, but as microsoft ceases support for smb1, we are currently looking for alternatives. jcifs-ng is such a library, which we took a closer look at. In java code a jcifs-ng file operation looks like this:

Hi,

I have a large XML zen report file that I want to convert to a CSV, what is the most efficient way to do it.

XML file:

<Details>
<Col1> aa1 </Col1>
<Col2> bb1</Col2>
<Col3> cc1 </Col3>
</Details>
<Details>
<Col1> aa2 </Col1>
<Col2> bb2</Col2>
<Col3> cc3 </Col3>
</Details>

Expected Output:

Col1,Col2,col3
aa1,bb1,bb1
aa2,bb2,bb2

Thank you.

Intro

For many in today's interoperability landscape, REST reigns supreme. With the overabundance of tools and approaches to REST API development, what tools do you choose and what do you need to plan for before writing any code?
This article focuses on design patterns and considerations that allow you to build highly robust, adaptive, and consistent REST APIs. Viable approaches to challenges of CORS support and authentication management will be discussed, along with various tips and tricks and best tools for all stages of REST API development. Learn about the open-source REST APIs available for InterSystems IRIS Data Platform and how they tackle the challenge of ever-increasing API complexity.
