Hey everyone.

I'm currently looking at a process where we're utilising the Class Ens.StreamContainer, and was looking to do some deletions outside of any purge routines.

Having been burned before, I wanted to make sure that deleting the container also deletes the contents within.

From looking in the class, the %OnDelete ClassMethod appears to be removing an index from a search table and nothing more.

Hello,

One of our clients has a 'Notes' class with over 3 million records. We have a report that pulls data from this table that was taking about an hour to run. Our test environment (which has a copy of the production database) runs the same report query in 1 second.

We attempted to purge and rebuild indices which made an improvement (down to 15 minutes) but still not great.

I am receiving the garbled text due to incorrect encoding or decoding. I tried to use the $zconvert function to convert it into the normal text but failed to do that. Can anybody suggest what I have to use to convert that into normal text?

Example: Garbled text that I am getting is "canââ¬â¢t , theyââ¬â¢re".

We are receiving the report in text format and it has special characters like ', - like that in the text. Source system is using the UTF8 encoding format hence the text is showing as ' � ' . Is there a way to convert the utf8 to actual character in the DTL.

Thank you,

Is there a generic process for "walking" the structure of a virtual document - eg an HL7 message (EnsLib.HL7.Message) or an XML document (EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document).

At least we'd want to be able to visit all "nodes" (HL7 fields or sub-fields, XML nodes) in the virtual document and be able to work out/generate the Property Path (so we could call "GetValueAt").

We can just about come up with something generic for HL7, since it only nests down to 4 levels within each segment, though we're using numeric Property Path's at that point rather than symbolic ones (MSH:1.3 etc).

Is there a way in ObjectScript to return the OS user of the superserver? I know %SYS.ProcessQuery can find this for a given process but is there a clean way independent of a specific process ID I can find the OS user used for background jobs?

For IRIS this is usually irisusr and Caché this is usually cacheusr but may vary based on installation and upgrade history of an instance. I would find it very useful to determine programmatically if a process is running as this particular user when the username may vary.

Message Count

Looking for a SQL query or any other method to find the Unique/distinct message counts for all productions or at least per production namespace within a given time frame. For e.g TimeCreated = January 2025 (Whole month)

I have used the following, but its not restricting the numbers based on the TimeCreated filter. Every time a new message is processed by system, its added to the total. I am running the query in today's date

Select Sum(MsgCount)

From

(Select DISTINCT TargetConfigName, count(DISTINCT SessionID) as MsgCount

FROM ENS.MessageHeader

I have a repeatable field within HL7 that I want to create a List from. Do I have to initialize the List by using $LB, or can I just use $LI to keep adding on to the end of the list as it is looping through the field?

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.

Dear Fellow Cache Gurus: I would like to know if there is either any built-in Cache Date/Time function or an easy way to include a timezone abbreviation such as EST, PST, MST, etc... within the Cache Date/Time formats.

I read through the Cache Documentation but could not find anything to achieve this.

So if I do the following command: $ZDateTime($H,1,4,,,4,,,,,"InvalidDate"), then I get an output like this: 02/27/2025 11:10AM

But I am looking for the output to be formatted like this: 02/27/2025 11:10AM EST

SET name='Omer', counter = counter + 1;


as you can see with the above code - if the row is non-existent then we get an error because COUNTER is NULL!
I tried the following to fix this but all have failed:

Hi Community,

I have a problem I am hoping someone can help with - I have created a front-end with HTML/CSS/JS in a CSP page in Iris Studio. I am trying to use objectscript on the back end to connect to a SQL Server Database (with valid credentials), and execute a stored procedure.

I have a fileList variable that is a stored as a comma separated string through a user input textBoxContainer. This is to be used as a parameter in the stored procedure called @Docs

Hey everyone,
Might be a stupid question, but i was trying to set the ContentLength of the %response object in my website.
In different places (like the onPreHttp / onPostHttp etc) but none seems to work.

The reason behind it is to send a more accurate representation of the actual data I send, instead of having the overhead of the broker that adds more characters , I want the exact length of the response accounting only for the data that I actually returned.
