Currently, we are utilizing batch jobs at the OS level to kick off routines that watch for files. We are trying to convert these processes to be performed by the Task Manager.

The routines have while loops and perform while loops so long as the time parameters are being met.

What's the best way to ensure Task Manager kicks them off after the completion of the shutdown/backup/start process is performed, which we do nightly? I want to ensure that it starts it regardless of the time that we've set.

Good evening Intersystems Community,

I want to participate in the Advent of Code 2020 and followed the installation instructions in "The Advent of Code 2020 contest ObjectScript template" (https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/aoc2020-objectscript-template).

Unforunately I get "Error: Invalid Community Edition license, may have exceeded core limit." at the step "docker-compose build".

Hi community,

I need to create a DTL to get values from a JSon (%DynamicObject) to a class.

Thre first items is copied fine, however when it tries to get the values from an array it raises an error.

Apache Superset is a modern data exploration and data visualization platform. Superset can replace or augment proprietary business intelligence tools for many teams. Superset integrates well with a variety of data sources.

And now it is possible to use with InterSystems IRIS as well.

An online demo is available and it uses IRIS Cloud SQL as a data source.

This code snippet allows for a file on the web to be saved into the file system. Specify the server and GET request, as well as the directory the file should be saved to. The class method "test" runs the code:

Class objectscript.saveFileHTTP Extends %RegisteredObject
{
    classmethod test() {
        Set httprequest = ##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
        Set httprequest.Server = "docs.intersystems.com"
        Do httprequest.Get("documentation/cache/20172/pdfs/GJSON.pdf")
        
        Do $System.OBJ.Dump(httprequest.HttpResponse)
         
        Set stream=##class(%FileBinaryStream).%New()
        Set stream.Filename="c:\test.pdf"

        Write stream.CopyFrom(httprequest.HttpResponse.Data)
        Write stream.%Save()
    }
}

Here's a link to the code on GitHub

InterSystems is announcing an end of maintenance event for Zen Reports beginning in Intersystems IRIS and IRIS for Health 2025.1. This follows the deprecation notice made when InterSystems IRIS was introduced in 2018 and subsequent inclusion of InterSystems Reports in 2020 to provide replacement reporting functionality. An overview of the timeline is:

In Cache Studio there is export class dialog with options "Export current project" and "Include dependent classes".

Is there any way to export class programmatically, but with same effect as if "Include dependent classes" was checked? So that not only the class itself is exported, but also all dependent classes? I know of Export method in %SYSTEM.Obj class, but it only exports the class itself.

Since I saw many posts on Developer Community related to Python, and the very good articles and application written by @Eduard Lebedyuk I was wondering: "As a Object Script developer, why would I want to use an other language in Object Script?

Hello everyone,

What has been the best way for you to store and retrieve session information about a user for CSP projects? I can use these methods easily:

CSP Session Management

however I'd like to know if there's a better way to keep more permanent information, or should it all be kept in a class?

Hello Community,

I am trying to insert multiple values in a table. Below is the simple sql statement.

Insert Into TableX

values ('Name', 'Address', 'Phone')

How can i do multiple inserts(rows) in one single statement?

Interesting anecdote I want to share. Not 100% Caché related, but I hope it would be useful.

When CSP Gateway is configured on IIS, opening CSP Gateway Configuration page is prohibited by default -- as IIS blocks URLs with '/bin' in it.

In our documentation we advise to add <remove segment="bin" /> to applicationHost.config file.
That is correct.

Hey Developers,

There is an interesting discussion in the Russian forum going.

What is the best solution for the function which returns the max for the set of parameters?

From the listed solutions I like this one:

ClassMethod max(args...) {
  for i=1:1:args {  s max(+$g(args(i))) = i }
  s i="", max=$o(max(i),-1, i) Q $lb(max, i)
}
