As a developer, you have probably spent at least some time writing repetetive code. You may have even found yourself wishing you could generate the code programmatically. If this sounds familiar, this article is for you!

We'll start with an example. Note: the following examples use the %DynamicObject interface, which requires Caché 2016.2 or later. If you are unfamiliar with this class, check out the documentation here: Using JSON in Caché. It's really cool!

##Example

You have a %Persistent class that you use to store data. Now, suppose that you are ingesting some data in JSON format, using the %

Hi all,
I hope this is the right forum to ask this type of question, but I'm running out of ideas.
For reasons beyond my control, we run a version of Intersystems Caché (2013.1) that is not supported by Atelier. As such, I use Caché Studio to do my development.
The issue I have is, I don't run Windows or MAC, but Linux (Ubuntu 18.04 in my case). I've successfully managed to get Studio working using Wine and pretty much everything is usable. 
There is just *one* issue which neither me or my peers can solve.If you hover over a line in the code editor, a tooltip reading 'First record' appears.

Hello everyone, it took some time but I'm finally getting things done again. Phew! But for now, allow me to introduce a tool that I've been using frequently.

I call it Forgery.

This description has been taken from my GitHub repository, also available on OpenExchange:

Forgery is a server-side utility that allows executing simulated HTTP request by forging calls to REST applications. This makes Forgery ideal for using together with test suites that need to call the API via HTTP but could face issues with license usage and its grace period.

This works just like having a command-line agent that

Hi Developers!

Hi,

I'm trying to send a file to other system using "Enslib.FTP.PassthroughOperation" and use below settings for connection and retry,

Connection Settings
StayConnected : -1 
ConnectTimeout : 30

Additional Settings
RetryInterval : 15 
FailureTimeout : 240

As per my analysis, if the connection is failed, it retries 16 times (FailureTimeout/RetryInterval). Initially, I assumed that ConnectTimeout also involves with RetryInterval and the total number of retry would be 6 times (FailureTimeout/(RetryInterval+ConnectTimeout)).

Still, it is not clear to me whether Ensemble considers "ConnectTimeout" during

Hi Community!

How can I know the port of management portal e.g. from terminal?

The one which looks like

localhost:port/csp/sys/exp/%25CSP.Portal.Home.zen 

in browser?

Available at:

https://hub.docker.com/r/yape/yape/

$ docker container run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/data yape/yape --version
yape 2.2.6

See the readme at:

https://github.com/murrayo/yape

Changes include:

• Reinstate config file, make some more changes to smarter x and y axis.
• Update line style choices in config file.
• Solve for yyyy dates and yy dates or bail out. Make date string consistent for windows title (drop decimal places), add short day to title. 
• Increase decimal precision for y axis less than 10, eg for windows sec/read is seconds not ms like linux
• Some minor fixes after update python

Greetings,

Can someone please show me via coding example(s) how to write an input prompt that will read in a function key, F7 for example, validate that the key pressed is F7 and then process it all via cache.

Hey everyone!

I had looked around a bit and couldn't find a native way to log queue counts in Ensemble/HealthShare so I wrote a quick task and persistent class to do it. Hope this saves someone a bit of time. Let me know your thoughts! Thanks!

I have this fact table

And the cube which is pretty much 1:1.

I have build an MDX:

SELECT NON EMPTY [Measures].[Error] ON 0,NON EMPTY [CheckTime].[H1].[Minute].Members ON 1 FROM [CHECKCUBE]

Which produced this chart in DeepSeeWeb (there's obviously more data, but you get an idea):

However, I want to add a Marker - if it equals 1 then I need some indication on the chart, so the graph should look like this:

Is there a way to do that in DeepSee or DeepSeeWeb?

Hi guys!

What is the IRIS analog for Ensemble.INC?

Hello,

as you can see in title my problem is with file ccontrol. I want to install whole Ensemble with Manifest if on machine wouldn't be any, or if I somehow find out instance of Ensemble I want to only use settings from included Manifest. I read that I can use file ccontrol to solve this task.

So can someone said me, how to work with ccontrol, is there some variable or function which returns me somethig? I have read some parts of documentation about ccontrol, but nothing help me so much, so you can give me link to part in documentation, where is this desribed.

My easy solution coud be, that I

Hi, I am new to the forum (not new to Mumps, M, DTM, MSM, M-Technology, Cache etc.) and I work as an Operations Director for a Cache software house, is there somewhere I/we can advertise for Cache developer related jobs/vacancies that we have? Apologies if this is not the right approach, but don't see anything obvious and when searching for jobs just see Intersystems announcements for various positions.

Hello All,

I have a outbound Http adapter.

How do i see the HTTP Request which is going out using Message Viewer or Trace? I want to see the entire message with the Headers and Body.

Greetings,

We need to communicate with a vendor through web services in a way that those web services pull the queued messages from Ensemble instead of Ensemble pushing messages to a web service. 

Is this possible? if yes, will we loose the messages sessions, status, and tracking information?

Your help is much appreciated.

Hi,

I have  a program that displays the current running processes to the screen. I need to have a program execute that display program and capture the results to a file. The display program does pause at the bottom of each page waiting for an 'enter' to go to the next page.

Note( the display program will not successfully compile on the current system but it does work)

Also - very, very new to Mumps. 

Thanks,

From inside Business Service (OnProcessInput method specifically) I want to determine if Ensemble tries to shut down the job.

Is it possible? How?

Hi all,

I have a question about the Private Global Blocks when viewing a process's details.  This number is growing while my process runs - is this due to variables, process-private-globals, or both?

Thanks

Hello community,

I am trying to parse the below HttpResponse in Cache. Cannot get the Iterator to work. Is there a single loop which can parse both or single messages and grab the error?

{
error:[
{ txt1:'error msg1'},

{ txt2:'error msg2'},
]
}
 

{
error: {
txt1:[
'error msg1',

'error msg2'
]
}
 

Thanks,

The steps are as follows：

1. create global

 For I=1:1:200 Set ^ABC(I)=""
 For I=1:1:200 Set ^XYZ(I)=""
 For I=1:1:100 Kill ^ABC(I)

2. create ZJRNFILT

ZJRNFILT(jid,dir,glo,type,restmode,addr,time)    /*Filter*/
  Set restmode=1                                  /*Return 1 for restore*/
  If glo["^ABC",type="K" Set restmode=0           /*except if a kill on ^ABC*/
  Quit
  ;

3. restore

s RestOref=##class(Journal.Restore).%New()
s RestOref.FirstFile="20190717.007"
s RestOref.LastFile="20190717.007"
s RestOref.JournalLog="journal.log"
s RestOref.Filter="^ZJRNFILT"
s Status=RestOref.Run()

Hi there

Would you please advise how to count how many keys are duplicated in global, for example, Athens was duplicate 3.

Set ^Data("Cambridge") = "1"
 Set ^Data("New York") = "2"
 Set ^Data("Boston") = "3"
 Set ^Data("London") = "4"
 Set ^Data("Athens") = "5"
 Set ^Data("Athens") = "6"
 Set ^Data("Athens") = "7"

Thanks

I need to copy a bunch of globals from some crufty old databases to spanking clean brand new ones. GBLOCKCOPY has this cool feature that lets you create a batch of global names to copy and save the list in a batch. You can then execute the batch and go take a nap.

I like naps.

I need to do this for a number of old-new database pairs, but it's the same global names every time. Is there a way to export the batch configuration created the first time and import it to another environment/namespace? These databases will be spread across multiple hosts.

Thanks!

How can I convert date format ddmmmyyyy to yyyymmdd in cache?
