I'm confused about the differences between a namespace and a database.

I understand that a database is a single IRIS.DATA file in a directory in the os hosting IRIS.

What is the difference between a namespace and a database?

Can I write data into a database without specifying a namespace?
If so how do I write to a particlar DB in objectscript?

Does a database have to be in a namespace?
Can a database be in more than one namespace?

Can a namespace have only one 'routine' database and only one 'data' database?

At the moment we're creating multiple BPLs are using a router (or another BPL) to direct to these based on a unique key modulo the amount of BPLs available, e.g. if we have 3 BPLs created.

Message key = 1 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL02
Message key = 2 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL03
Message key = 3 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL01

FIFO only matters in that each messages for each key is processed in order.

I was working on a DTL but kept getting ERROR #5002... MAXSTRING errors. The problem was that most of the DTL GUI action steps only support the string data type when working with the segments. A %String has a limit of 3,641,144 characters and my OBX5.1 was 5,242,952 characters long as the example provided. Of course PACS admin stated ultra high quality up to and including 4K resolution files were needed, so we could not get the vendor to compress or reformat these files to compressed jpg or something similar.

Hello All,

No matter what I try in Business Process Logic (BPL), I am unable to calculate the patient's age in days or years.

Has anyone ever built logic in a Business Process (BPL) to calculate a person's age in days?

Thank you!

How to add the following to a stored procedure (Cache Studio)
1. Select from a few tables and insert result into a TABLEA.
2. Then select data from the TABLEA, apply some SQL logic, insert results into TABLEB.
3. SELECT * FROM TableA
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM TableB

Is there a simple way to compare Stream data between two objects?

We have used $ZCRC to create a checksum and that seems to be work.

We have also read each line of the streams and compared them and that seems to work too.

We just think there has to be a simpler way than looping through all the lines of the stream.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

What settings do I need to just passthrough an X12 messages from a BS to BO and out the BO without modifying the message?

Currently, we are receiving the X12 messages but, it seems Iris is modifying it by "hiding" some segments like the ISA segment. The message goes out the BO modified and it doesn't reach its destination. Since I just want to pass it through, there is no BP, DTL, or Rule processing the message. Message is received by the BS and sent directly to the BO.

My current settings:

Hello, I want to create PDF from HTML source. I found pandoc. I installed pandoc on IRIS container image. I created Interoperability production. I have setup REST service to receive HTML file in request body. I call pandoc command pandoc -o output.pdf input.html from a BPL process. I copy output.pdf file stream into response body. I save the response at the source. I get a file named output.pdf but it does not load in Acrobat. I suspect I am doing something wrong with headers (accept-encoding?) or maybe do I need to base64 encode the pdf file to transfer it via REST?

There is a list of numbers from 1 to 190.

AllList="1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,.....,187,188,189,190"

There is a collection of sets of these values:

List(1)="3,5,6,7,9"
List(2)="1,2,6,9"
List(3)="5,8,9"
List(4)="2,4,6,8"
List(5)="4,7,9"

What is an elegant approach in Object Script to pick the least number of list items:

• List(1)
• List(5)
• List(n)

That together would cover as many numbers as possible from the AllList.

Interested in best coverage over efficiency.
