Is it possible to change the display name of a custom production setting?

#Ensemble #InterSystems IRIS #InterSystems IRIS for Health

Hi,

 

I created a property in a Business Process class and added that property to the "settings" parameter to display it as a field in production settings.

Property ServerName As %String(MAXLEN = "");

Parameter SETTINGS = "ServerName:Server Config";

Property names cannot contain characters such as underscore or whitespace. Is there any way to change the display name in production so that I can show this setting as "Server Name" and not "ServerName"?
 

   

Thank you in advance.

I don't think there is an official support way to achieve that.

However, if you temporary change ENSLIB database and remove read-only flag and then:

Set ^IRIS.Msg("EnsColumns","en","ServerName")="Server Name"

or maybe better:

s ^IRIS.Msg("EnsColumnsNAMESPACENAME,"en","ServerName")="Server Name"

where NAMESPACENAME is the name of your production.

And then you put back the read-only flag in ENSLIB  database......you will find a surprise 😉

Note that this is a kind of a hack, you lose the "surprise" when you upgrade and may not work in future versions.

Edit: see @Eduard Lebedyuk advise below for a much better way to do it using global mapping instead of changing ENSLIB
