Hi,

How can I query fields by passing them in variable names, eg. I would like to query columns Book & Author fields from eg. the following :

S =var1="Book", var2="Author"

Select var1,var2 from myTables.Books

I tried @var1 or %var1 and didn't work

Thanks

Dear Developer Community,

It seems the Grinch got a little mischievous and swiped our recap before it could make its grand debut! 🎄💚 But don’t worry — our developer elves are hard at work tracking it down, and the full recap will be online shortly.

Hang tight, and we promise to have it back in time to spread all the holiday cheer (and the details you’re waiting for). Thanks for your patience, and keep an eye out for the return of our festive recap!

We are doing healthcare interface development.

Developers have Ensemble installed locally on their laptops - code will be developed locally then deployed to integration, test/UAT and ultimately production servers in due course.

One of the other applications we are developing around happens to utilise an Iris desktop client to a remote Iris server. We want to have the application available on the developers laptops alongside the local Ensemble instance.

Hi:

We are looking again into DB size. Looking at our Ens.MessageHeaderI GSIZE is 3767107

Looking at the global i'm not sure if we have had an issue in the past so much of the data looks the same, we only have 3 values in the $zwc and although some of the data in the $c between 1 and 18630 it looks very similar as if there was an issue in the past. But if anyone has any examples of their index param this would help to know if our global is abnormal.

Data below

When you find yourself in need or desire of learning something new in technology and you face the challenge of embarking on a new venture, what is the appropriate starting point? How do you decide where to begin and how to gradually approach the process, especially when the challenge seems overwhelming?

Myself I read official documentation or try to start with something I know and then learn something new very related.

The first part of this article provides all the background information. It also includes links to the DATATYPE_SAMPLE database, which you can use to follow along with the examples.

In that section, we explored an error type ("Access Failure") that is easy to detect, as it immediately triggers a clear error message when attempting to read the data via the database driver.

Hi Community,

It seems our Developer Community AI has decided to take a coffee break ☕️ (probably after answering one too many tricky ObjectScript questions).

The importance of the coffee break

For now, it’s gone mysteriously silent and refuses to generate answers. We suspect it might be rethinking its life choices after reading one too many deeply philosophical ObjectScript questions.

The "Ask Developer Community AI" tool is an excellent resource for studying for the certification. I asked it about each topic that will be covered in the test and the results are below.
Note: I classified each answer by the assertiveness that I consider as good, average and bad.

Note 2: The article has 4 parts, each one for an exam area.

I have an old .NET 4.5 project, working with database InterSystems.Cache. The project is deployed on a Windows server. Data is retrieved using the InterSystems.Data.CacheClient.dll library.

But now I'm planning migration of the project to .NET 8 to container with linux centos.

How can I get data from InterSystems.Cache in this case?

As I understand it, InterSystems.Data.CacheClient.dll is only for the .NET framework.

Hello everyone!

I have set up an EnsLib.REST.GenericService with an EnsLib.HTTP.InboundAdapter which forwards the http requests received by a web app to my Business Process.

I would like to parse HTTP multipart/form messages I am receving and be able to iterate over the various fields within the request body, accessing its content type and the content itself.

As far as I understand I should use the %Net.MIMEReader class which should return a list of %Net.MIMEPart, one for each field within the request. However if I do :

In your Interoperability Production you could always have a Business Operation that is an HTTP client, that uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication, but you had to customize the Operation for this authentication methodology. Since v2024.3, which was lately released, there is a new capability, providing new settings, to handle this more easily.

If several application servers are connected using ECP, and one of them create many locks, so many that lock table became full :

Should we expect only that application server to be impacted ? (usually, when lock table is full the system became instable). Or, are other application servers going to be impacted the same way ? (because that lock table is synchronized and maintained in sync across all servers)
