2025.1 Modernizing Interoperability User Experience

The Interoperability user interface now includes modernized user experiences for the DTL Editor and Production Configuration applications that are available for opt-in in all interoperability products. You can switch between the modernized and standard views. All other Interoperability screens remain in the Standard user interface. Please note that changes are limited to these two applications and we identify below the functionality that is currently available.

Motivation

I didn't know about ObjectScript until I started my new job. Objectscript isn't actually a young programming language. Compared to C++, Java and Python, the community isn't as active, but we're keen to make this place more vibrant, aren't we?

I've noticed that some of my colleagues are finding it tricky to get their heads around the class relationships in these huge projects. There aren't any easy-to-use modern class diagram tool for ObjectScript.

I have tried relavant works:

Hi Community,

In this article, we will explore the concepts of Dynamic SQL and Embedded SQL within the context of InterSystems IRIS, provide practical examples, and examine their differences to help you understand how to leverage them in your applications.

InterSystems SQL provides a full set of standard relational features, including the ability to define table schema, execute queries, and define and execute stored procedures. You can execute InterSystems SQL interactively from the Management Portal or programmatically using a SQL shell interface. Embedded SQL enables you to embed SQL statements in your ObjectScript code, while Dynamic SQL enables you to execute dynamic SQL statements from ObjectScript at runtime. While static SQL queries offer predictable performance, dynamic and embedded SQL offer flexibility and integration, respectively.

Hello,

So i want to use the INSERT OR UPDATE command so i can update a COUNTER for a given name:

INSERT OR UPDATE myTable
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:

Mirroring only synchronizes database files.

To synchronize other files required for your application (CSP files, images, documents, etc.) between the two servers that make up the mirror set follow one of the approaches:

  1. Place those files on a shared disk by introducing a NAS or similar device
  2. Or use file sync software to synchronize files between two servers.

It helps to remove special characters, such as non-utf-8 characters either control characters or unicode characters from text that is not printable or can't be parsed by downstream systems.

There is also $C(32) in this condition; sometimes NBSP appears in the text and it will not be recognized by TIE, but downstream it displays as "?".

So, you checked your server and saw that IRISTEMP is growing too much. There's no need to panic. Let’s investigate the issue before your storage runs out.

Step 1: Confirm the IRISTEMP Growth Issue

Before assuming IRISTEMP is the problem, let’s check its actual size.

Check the Free Space

Run the following command in the IRIS terminal:

%SYS>do ^%FREECNT

When prompted, enter:

Hello everyone,
so lets say i have the following:

Hello
Q
say(arg)
w arg
Q


and i am trying to execute it by its name such as:


s a = "say^hello"

*execute the name inside a*

now I know for a fact that if say were written without any argument then do @a would work!

but I can I pass an argument in this case?
I don't want to use Xecute because I am in need of really high performance code.

My usecase is sorting and removing duplicates and getting count from a file that has json messages as a individual rows.

I am currently planning to use pandas for this purpose as its really fast. Below are the steps i am following

1) call a python function (called function) from IRIS classmethod(calling function)

2) the call python function will read the json file in a dataframe

3) perform sorting, dup removal, count in the dataframe

4) convert the dataframe into iris stream

5) return back the stream to iris calling function class method

Hi all,

I am trying to establish an HTTPS connection to a server using a %Net.HttpRequest object. I'm able to ping and curl the server via command line. The issue I am running into is that I am able to establish a connection, but something seems to be going wrong with verification from the server side. For example, if I use the CheckSSLCN method on the server, it returns this error message

ERROR #6155: Unable to verify SSL/TLS connected to correct system as no SSL certificate present for this socket. */

Having been inspired with Shared code execution speed question/discussion, I dare to ask another one which is annoying me and my colleagues for several weeks.

We have a routine called Lib that comprises 200 $$-functions of 1500 code lines total. It was noticed that after calling _any_ function of another rather big routine (1900 functions, 32000 lines) the next call of $$someFunction^Lib(x) is getting 10-20% slower than previous call of the same function. This effect doesn't depend on:

I’m trying to connect to an InterSystems Caché database from my local development environment using an IPv4 address. Most examples I’ve found show how to connect using the ODBC driver with the localhost or the default IP address (127.0.0.1). However, I want to know how to connect using my local IPv4 address.

Here’s what I need help with:

Hi Community,

I have a CSP page I am developing with the intent of pulling files from an SFTP site and placing them in a folder on the local network.

I am having an issue where the CSP page is catching a JS error. The error in the browser is - A JavaScript exception was caught during execution of HyperEvent: SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'downloading'. (However, the unexpected identifier changes after refreshing page, or after removing the Write statement with the work 'downloading' in it.)

I think I have narrowed it down to a piece of the Javascript code -

Recursivity

Greetings.

I am working on a demand wheres i need to find all the possible combinations of number contained in a string, its works very well, but when the total numbers is increased bigger, the time to execute the code is increased exponentially. Theres a beter way to find combinations then recursively?

By default, the order of columns in a table is determined automatically by the system. To change the order, explicitly set the order for each property using the property keyword SqlColumnNumber when defining the class.

Example:

Property Name As %String [SqlColumnNumber = 2];

Please see the documentation below.

How to get server/instance info

Hi all,

As part of the development an API to know what is the instance of IRIS is connected, I've found some methods to know information about the server that can help you.

Get the server name: $SYSTEM.INetInfo.LocalHostName()

Get the server IP: $SYSTEM.INetInfo.HostNameToAddr($SYSTEM.INetInfo.LocalHostName())

Get the instance name: $PIECE($SYSTEM,":",2)

Are you curious about how to run Python scripts directly in your InterSystems IRIS or Caché terminal? 🤔 Good news it's easy! 😆 IRIS supports Embedded Python, allowing you to use Python interactively within its terminal environment.

How to access the Python Shell?

To launch the Python shell from the IRIS terminal, simply run the following command:

I have installed three plugins on VS Code: Intersystems Language Server: v2.3.6, Intersystems ObjectScript: v2.10.5, and Intersystems Server Manager: v3.6.2. I connected to the Caché database and connected a workspace to the InterSystems server. Then I edited the code locally on my client machine.
