Let's suppose two different routines use one and the same chunk of code. From the object-oriented POV, a good decision is to have this chunk of code in a separate class and have both routines call it. However, whenever you call code outside of the routine as opposed to calling code in the same routine, some execution speed is lost. For reports churning through millions of transactions this lost speed might be noticeable. Any advice how to optimize specifically speed?

To enable Interoperability functionality after creating a namespace, use the EnableNamespace method of the %EnsembleMgr class:

do ##class(%EnsembleMgr).EnableNamespace()

Hi Developers!

As you know the concept of ObjectScript Package Manager consists of ZPM client - client application for IRIS which helps you to install packages from the registry. And the code which works "on the other side" is ZPM Registry - server which hosts packages and exposes API to submit, list and install it. Now when you install the ZPM client it installs packages from community package registry, which si hosted on pm.community.intersystems.com

But what if you want your own registry? E.g. you produce different software packages for your clients and you want to distribute it via private registry? Also, you may want to use your own registry to deploy solutions with different combinations of packages.

Is it possible? The answer is YES! You can have it if you deploy ZPM registry on your server with InterSystems IRIS.

To make it happen you would need to set up your own registry server.

Hi IRIS experts!

I have a parameter in a class that stores a global name:

Parameter GlobalName = "^AGlobal";

then I'm trying to call it as:

set gn=$name(..#GlobalName)

to use it later as:

set @gn@("index")="value"

But! I'm having syntax at set gn=$name(..#GlobalName)

What am I doing wrong?

I want to add a database to a mirror.

Is this the correct way to do so:

set status=##Class(SYS.Mirror).AddDatabase("/db/iknow")

Is the status=0 if it worked and anything else means it failed?

Thanks for any help

Hi Community,

Hello! In this article, I will be discussing database degrade, a type of data integrity issue one can face when using IRIS. First, I will be going over a review of the structure of IRIS databases. I'll then discuss how database degrade can manifest and common causes of degrade issues. I'll then conclude with general tips we give our customers about how to prevent or prepare for database degrade issues.

Upon doing A NEW INSTALL of IRIS 2025.1 on a new computer, the IR task appears in the tray and a right click to invoke the Launcher yields no response. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I have a stream that I read out until the end. I then append more content to the stream and want to read out only what has been added. How do I only read out the new contents of the stream? Essentially, I want to read a stream, record the end position, then once the stream is updated read the contents from that recorded position until at the new end. This stream needs to be kept intact for historical reference so cannot be cleared between reads.

For a long time I have wanted to learn the Django framework, but another more pressing project has always taken priority. Like many developers, I use python when it comes to machine learning, but when I first learned web programming PHP was still enjoying primacy, and so when it was time for me to pick up a new complicated framework for creating web applications to publish my machine learning work, I still turned to PHP.
