GA releases are now published for the 2020.1 version of InterSystems IRIS, IRIS for Health, and IRIS Studio!

A full set of kits and containers for these products are available from the WRC Software Distribution site, including community editions of InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health.

The build number for these releases is 2020.1.0.215.0.

InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2020.1  makes it even easier to develop and deploy real-time, machine learning-enabled applications that bridge data and application silos.

Hi,

I'm using Operating System authentication and I need to give permission on Healthshare to allow a user to run only this two commands 

##Class(Backup.General).ExternalFreeze()

and

##Class(Backup.General).ExternalThaw()

This user is gonna be use to backup only.

There are any role on HealthShare for this?

Hi, 

I'm having a problem when I'm attempting to freeze the instance.

I have a pre-script and post-script to freeze and unfreeze the instance, but when the script execute: 

 csession INSTANCE_NAME -U '%SYS' "##Class(Backup.General).ExternalFreeze(\"$SNAPLOG\",,,,,,1800)"

 It's give me this error and fails the freeze: 

Backup.General.ExternalFreeze: Failed, Unable to switch local journal file, Error: -99,ERROR #1142: Error switching journal file: 0
vi

At cconsole.

InterSystems has corrected a defect that can result in data integrity issues on systems using mirroring.

This defect affects:

• All currently released versions of InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health, except 2020.1
• Caché and Ensemble versions beginning with 2011.1.1
• All HealthShare products based on the above Data Platforms versions

This defect is more likely to be encountered in IRIS and IRIS for Health 2019.4. It is highly unlikely to have occurred on deployed systems running any other version.

Hi Community!

Here is a digest of the Developer Community videos on InterSystems Developers YouTube Channel in March 2020:

Hi Community!

The new video from Global Summit 2019 is already on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

⏯ A Skeptics Guide to Containers

The intersystems documentation gives the same description for both <MAXSTRING> and <NETWORK DATA UPDATE FAILED - MAXSTRING>. I suspect that the description for <MAXSTRING> is correct and the description for <NETWORK DATA UPDATE FAILED - MAXSTRING> was an accident. I would like to know what situation triggers the <NETWORK DATA UPDATE FAILED - MAXSTRING> error.

I want to create a CSP page that returns a pdf. The pdf is identified by a pdftoken parameter.

My goal is to validate the token and return the pdf (ContentType=”application/pdf”) if the token is good and return a text error message "Bad Token" (ContentType=”text/plain”) if the token is missing or bad.

My issue seems to be associated with ContentType. I can define one ContentType that works for the pdf or the error message. I am unable to change the ContentType.

Any assistance is appreciated.

ClassMethod OnPage() As %Status { set pdfToken=$get(%request.

A releases are now published for the 2020.1 version of HealthShare Health Connect!

Hello everyone!

I have an abstract class representing the possible inputs for an Enum field, in the following way: 

 Class system.dto.sector.SectorStatusEnum  [ Abstract ]
{

 Parameter Active = 1;

 Parameter Inactive = 2;

 Parameter Production = 3;

 Parameter Upkeep = 4;

 }

I need to create a persistent class referencing the abstract class in the status field, so that the result of the operation is the same as the example:

 Class datas.

Hello; we are scanning 835 files, and need to validate segment types (such as ISA, ST, IEA, etc.)  before we give the file the "OK".  I see segment types in the management portal under Ensemble / Interoperate / ASC X12 / ASC X12 Schema Structures.  Are these segment types stored in an IS table anywhere?

Aside from EnsLib_EDI_X12.Document, are there any other tables that describe, or support, document segment types?

Thanks,

Laura

Hi-

I have a class that specifies that streams should be stored in SSA.DocumentCacheS, however, they are getting stored in CacheStream instead.

How can I get streams to properly store in SSA.DocumentCacheS?

Here's the section from my storage definition that shows the StreamLocation

<DataLocation>^SSA.DocumentCacheD</DataLocation>
<DefaultData>DocumentCacheDefaultData</DefaultData>
<IdLocation>^SSA.DocumentCacheD</IdLocation>
<IndexLocation>^SSA.DocumentCacheI</IndexLocation>
<StreamLocation>^SSA.DocumentCacheS</StreamLocation>
<Type>%Storage.

Hi Developers!

InterSystems Online Programming Contest is over. Thank you all for participating in our IRIS Competition!

As a result - 20 great apps! And now it's time to announce the winners! 

Hi Caché-Developers!

My Caché Version: 2014.1 and the CSP-Gateway Version ( + Apache) also. I can't upgrade now. 

I want create a Web-Socket for my Chat  like in that Tutorial:

https://community.intersystems.com/post/tutorial-websockets

And there's my problem. When I set SharedConnection like:

set ..SharedConnection = 1

I get on init connection with the server that message:

First i think everything is okay but here i also didn't get the Messages on init from Server-Side:

When I now send a message to the WebSocket, I got following error:

Hi developers!

When @Evgeny Shvarov announced the first InterSystems IRIS Programming Contest, I started looking for new ideas. 

I put together a few ideas, and that's what isc-utils is about.

• Conversions
  • Temperature
  • Length

• Exchange Rate
• Weather

Temperature Scale Conversion

IRISAPP>write ##class(diashenrique.Utils.Temperature).CelsiusToFahrenheit(28)
82.4

IRISAPP>write ##class(diashenrique.Utils.Temperature).CelsiusToKelvin(28)
301.15

IRISAPP>write ##class(diashenrique.Utils.Temperature).FahrenheitToCelsius(82.4)
28

IRISAPP>write ##class(diashenrique.Utils.Temperature).

Hi Developers!

Create Database, Namespace, REST Applications using Portal Management is an easy task. You just need a few clicks or maybe more clicks than you expect.

But, what if you traded all those clicks for a simple command-line ?!

IRISAPP>do ##class(diashenrique.Utils.GenerateDB).CreateNew

You just need to answer a few questions: 

Do you want to create a new Database/Namespace? (Y/N) : 

Choose your Namespace name : 
Choose the Dataset location <Path Default is mgr directory> :
Make this an Interoperability namespace?

Hi Community!

The registration phase for InterSystems Online Programming Contest ends today and we will start the voting week!

Now we have 20 applications - so you have a set of applications to choose from!

How to vote?

This is easy: you will have one vote, and your vote goes either in Experts nomination or in Community nomination.

Hello,

We are developing a BP where we would need to call at the same time to get appointments in two external systems. So then, we would need two threads, one for primary care appointments, and other for specialist appointments . We need to paralelize both calls because of both of them require some time and we would need to shorten it as much as possible.

Hello,

I got the idea for this application, because for my work we have a process that currently uses legacy Vista code called MailMan to transfer files using email. I thought I could create a process in HealthConnect (IRIS Interoperability) to replace the need for having the legacy code. I have seen File Passthrough and TCP Passthrough Operations that can transfer a stream (file content) into a file or through TCP connection. I did not find Email Passthrough Operation, so I decided to create it. It receives request with a stream that has the content of the file.

This code snippet changes all passwords in a system to a specified string. The two literal strings at the beginning of the snippet can be adjusted to edit the system or password string. The class method "test" runs the code:

Class eduardlebedyuk.changePasswords Extends %RegisteredObject
{
ClassMethod test()
{
set ns = $namespace
zn "%SYS"
set NewPass = "NewPassString"
set rs=##Class(%ResultSet).%New("Security.Users:List")
set st = rs.Execute()
while rs.Next() { set st=$SYSTEM.Security.ChangePassword(rs.Get("Name"),NewPass)}
zn ns
}
}

DISCLAIMER: I am not an InterSystems engineer or a professional ObjectScript developer.

I just want to share my opinion about some things I am really miss in ObjectScript.

I really appreciate everyone who support my project (Declarative ObjectScript) in contest

but the post is not about "why you should support me" on contest.

I faced with ObjectScript in the university while was working on my diploma (in 2013).

Very good mentor @Evgeny Shvarov helped me to get started with ObjectScript development.

Hey Developers,

New "Coding Talk" video was specially recorded by @Maks.Atygaevfor the IRIS Programming Contest: 

⏯ Declarative ObjectScript Promo

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish

I have a directory of CCDAs and files with basic demographic info.

I'd like to generate an outbound Provide and Register request by building the SOAP envelope (using the demographics data) and adding the CCDA as the document.

Which Operations / Components can I utilize for this?

Is there is a good starting point in the documentation I can use?

If anyone knows which specific Operations/Components I should use please let me know.

Thanks

Starting in March 2020, Microsoft plans to release a series of security updates that will cause Windows Active Directory (AD) servers to reject unencrypted simple binds. For more details on the changes to Active Directory, see Microsoft’s Security Advisory ADV190023.

Instances of all InterSystems products using LDAP with Windows AD servers for user login can be impacted if they are not already properly configured to use TLS/SSL. The impact is not limited to instances running on Windows versions.

Hello,

We're considering adopting the ZPM solution as a way to manage many of our customer updates. However in order to do so we need to know a few things.

• Is ZPM client compatible with Caché 2017.x versions?
• Can we configure a self-hosted registry that doesn't require a GitHub repository link?
• Could the ZPM client zip and upload the whole package (all classes, routines, includes) instead of downloading it from a Github link?
• Can we declare a module that specifies classes themselves instead of their package counterpart? e.g. My.Class.CLS instead of My.PKG.
