Good morning, everyone

I purchased an HP LaserJet M101-M106 printer, and I'm trying to print via the Windows cache device, but I can't get it to work.
I can send it, but it doesn't print.
Physical device name: |PRN|HP LaserJet M101-M106
Type: Other
Subtype: P-DEC
Open Parameters: “W”

Could someone help me with what might be happening?

Otherwise, thanks

We have a task that runs objectscript code to load data into a linked external table. After upgrading from 2024.1 to 2025.1, the load is throwing an error, with error code -400, and no error message. The data DOES get loaded into the external table in its entirety, so with no meaningful error message, its hard to determine what the issue is. The result is the same with and without the USING clause, so don't let that confuse you. We have logs of this statement succeeding before upgrade, and were able to get this statement to work in our production environment, which is still on version 2

Hi,

I need a simple function for formatting a string, like in Python or C#. That's easy:

Class Very.Very.Long.Class.Name
{
ClassMethod Format(fmt As %String, args...) As %String [ Language = python ]
{
return fmt.format(*args)
}
}

To simplify calls, I want to wrap the function into a macro:

Hi guys,

Is it bad to have too many Business Services in a production and what's the limit, I'm looking to convert our system tasks (around 30 of them) into Business Services and wondering if it's a better option?

Thanks

Hi community,

I have a service that uses EnsLib.RecordMap.Service.FTPService to capture files in an FTP directory.

Instead of uploading them all at once, I would need to do so one at a time.

I have a class that extends this class because it preprocesses, saves everything in the RecordMap class, and then processes all the records at once.

When I invoke the BP, it does so through the method set tStatus = ..SendRequest(message, 1).

I've set the SynchronousSend flag to 1, but it continues processing all the files at once.

There is data, such as execution log data, that you do not want to return to its previous state even if a rollback occurs during a transaction. The above requirement can be met by placing that data in the IRISTEMP database, which will not be rolled back.

Only method/routine executed as "do Method..." is included into $ESTACK.
How can I modify a method or routine that returns a value so it can be included in $ESTACK?
Example upon executing via Studio Debug ($ESTACK is converted to string with ">" delimiter):
Expected: stackstr = %Debugger.System.DebugStub > LogGenerate > Entry > DirChain > Attributes > LogNew > LogSize > LogFormat > LogWrite
Processes DirChain, LogNew, LogSize, LogFormat are executed as "If Method..."

Hey Community,

The InterSystems team put on our monthly Developer Meetup with a triumphant return to CIC's Venture Café, the crowd including both new and familiar faces.
