#Caché

User calls my REST service. I need:

• Redirect him to a POST url
• Provide request body

Is it possible? How?

5 years ago, on December 19, 2013, the ESA launched an orbital telescope called Gaia. Learn more about the Gaia mission on the official website of the European Space Agency or in the article by Vitaly Egorov (Billion pixels for a billion stars).

However, few people know what technology the agency chose for storing and processing the data collected by Gaia. Two years before the launch, in 2011, the developers were considering a number of candidates (see “Astrostatistics and Data Mining” by Luis Manuel Sarro, Laurent Eyer, William O’Mullane, Joris De Ridder, pp. 111-112):

• IBM DB2,
• PostgreSQL,
• Apache Hadoop,
• Apache Cassandra and
• InterSystems Caché (to be more precise, the Caché eXTreme Event Persistence technology).

Comparing the technologies side-by-side produced the following results (source):

The first four will probably sound familiar even to schoolchildren. But what is Caché XEP?

Hi, Community!

When I introduce a field to a persistent class to manage date/time what datatype should I prefer?

%Date or %TimeStamp? And why?

How to create and delete a namespace from the terminal?

Hi, Community!

Please share your experience on code deployment on production site. Do you compile ObjectScript on Production? Is it OK?

Or you only compile on Test site and copy cache.dat to a Production?

InterSystems states that Caché supports at least three data models – relational, object and hierarchical (globals). On can work with data presented in relational model in a program written on C# the same way one works with any other relational DB. To work with data presented by object model in C# one needs to use .NET Managed Provider or some kind or ORM. And starting with version 2012.2 one can work directly with globals (or use direct access to hierarchical data) via Caché eXTreme for .NET.

I would like to examine the contents of my OBX-5 field and not route the message if it contains alphabetic characters. I've tried various combinations of the Match and Contains functions, with no luck. Should I be using the COS ? operator or plaini regular expressions?

e.g.

OBX-5 Contains "\D"

OBX-5 Contains "?.A"

OBX-5 Contains "[A-Z]"

Hi,

I need to read a UTF8 encoded text file and translate the content to 8-bit.

Using %File class and $ZCVT(TXT,"I","UTF8") works , but I see that if the content is larger than max string (32000) and we cut the content

To max string chunks, we can get a <translate> error if we cut it in the "wrong" point..

Is there a better way to do this task?

My code looks like this:

Dear,

I am beginner with this system.

I would like to do a migration of Cache.

I have at this time a windows XP with Cache 2007.1.5.802.0.7279.

I already install on a windows 10 the version of cache 2017.1.1 Build 111

The question is how do i have to transfer DB from the old pc to the new one?

Thank you very much for your help.

Hello,

I would like to schedule the Database Compact and Freespace methods as legacy tasks.

Has anyone implemented this yet?
Is this even possible?

The request for this is due to the fact that we have 3 interfaces in a namespace whose messages are deleted after 7 days. All other messages in this namespace should be kept for one year.
This leads to a certain fragmentation. Furthermore, the messages to be deleted are relatively large (MDM^T02 > 32MB), which in turn leads to a fast growth of the database size.

How would you solve this problem?

Application licensing enables InterSystems application partners to take advantage of Caché’s licensing capabilities for their own licensing purposes.

Caché manages customer application licenses just as it does Caché/Ensemble and InterSystems application licenses, maintaining usage counts and acquiring and returning user licenses as needed.

Application licenses consumed by a process or a CSP session are automatically released along with the Caché license consumed by the process or session when a process exits, halts or is deleted from the process table, or when a CSP session times out or is deleted.

More in docs.

Do you use this feature? If so, how?

I'm especially interested in license validation and general workflows?

Hi

on this code

set reader=##class(%XML.Reader).%New()
set statuscode=reader.OpenFile(file)
if $$$ISERR(statuscode) {do $System.Status.DisplayError(statuscode) quit $$$NULLOREF}

I got this error "unable to open file 'https://www.musicxml.org/dtds/partwise.dtd'"

or using the xml schema wisard i got the error https is active but no configuration found.

where do I have configure it?

Hi All
This is the index to a series of articles I hope to create over the coming months.

ZEN and ZEN Mojo are no longer being actively developed by Intesystems - this is a great shame as it is a fine product that works so well for business applications.
However ZEN is a 15 year old product and I need a path forward to replace the ZEN UI with a supported development framework.

This article is an index of the other articles I have, or plan to write. - the articles will be subject to change as I develop my thoughts and climb the learning curve.

Hi all,

I'm wonder what could be the best way convert the sentence "Switch" C# into Cache code.

int caseSwitch = 1;

switch (caseSwitch)
{
    case 1:
    Console.WriteLine("Case 1");
    break;

    case 2:
    Console.WriteLine("Case 2");
    break;

    default:
    Console.WriteLine("Default case");
    break;

}

My first attempt was:
