#Caché

Anyone know if it's possible using cache objectscript (or something else maybe) to reference an object property using a variable? For example:

s obj={}

s obj.prop1="hello"

s var="prop1"

w obj.var <== which would result in a reference to obj.prop1 and write out "hello"

Currently in Visual Studio Code when we connect to a Cache server and export the CLS and MAC files, they get placed in the following:

\Comp;anyName\src\Packages

Where the Packages folder corresponds to the different class packages we have. The MAC files are placed in the src folder and not contained in it's own folder.

Is there a way to configure the export for the MAC files so that it's contained in it's own folder like this:

\CompanyName\src\mac

Thanks in advance for your help.

Working with CSP applications, I've noticed behaviour that does not seem to be documented anywhere.

There is an undocumented command, $preprocess, that can be called as below. In this case it takes the class name and converts its code into a text array. That includes comments as well. Two questions about it if you know:

Is there any chance to make available a arm64/aarch64 binary version for Caché ODBC Driver?

Just like IRIS ftp://ftp.intersystems.com/pub/iris/odbc//2021/ODBC-2021.1.0.215.0-lnxrh...

As I am using docker, currently is not possible to build locally a new image using existing Caché ODBC Drivers on Mac M1.

Is there a way to get a report of how many messages are passing through a production? I am trying to gauge how many messages we process weekly, monthly, and yearly. Also, over specific months.

Would appreciate if someone can guide me on this

We use Cache for Windows 2017.1.3

I have a client running cache on an AIX platform. I put together a objectscript to allow for the viewing the processes running against the database using a select from SYS.Process. One of the values I want in the view of the processes information is Jobtype but I want to convert it from the numeric value to a string value. In the Intersystems documentation there is a reference to an include file $syPidTab.inc that should include macros that make this translation. I have not been able to track down this include file.

Hello everyone,

InterSystems Certification has redesigned their IRIS System Administration certification exam, and we again need input from our community to help validate the topics. Here's your chance to have your say in what topics are covered on the InterSystems IRIS System Administration Specialist exam! And, yes, we'd like to hear from you Caché admins too!

Here's the exam title and the definition:

Hello,

I don't know if the title is accurate enough. I have a legacy code that I need to optimize. It's a routine written in objectscript. It accepts 4 parameters and runs 6 nested FOR...$ORDER reading a big global.

The thing is when I run the routine the first time it takes around 60 seconds to run. If I run it again it takes 5 seconds. If I wait around 6 to 10 minutes to run it again, it takes 60 seconds again, but if I run it every 1, 2, 3... minutes it still takes only 5 seconds to run.

Hi,

Is there a way to find the median in Intersystems Cache SQL? I know it is not available as an aggregate function. Also in SQL Server I could try something like:

SELECT
(
 (SELECT MAX(Score) FROM
   (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT Score FROM Posts ORDER BY Score) AS BottomHalf)
 +
 (SELECT MIN(Score) FROM
   (SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT Score FROM Posts ORDER BY Score DESC) AS TopHalf)
) / 2 AS Median

However, there is no PERCENT Keyword in Cache as well. Any suggestions?

Thanks

What it the best method to call an object without ID but having RowID

Any help would be grateful thank you.

Hi

I created a password validation routine for the management portal, which is called from the System-wide Security Parameters.
The validation process works correctly, but the error message that is displayed to the user when the entered password fails validation, consists of two separate error codes and messages

Do we have REST API documentation to retrieve the data available in InterSystems Cache.

I am looking for APIs that will help me to pull the data available in InterSystems Cache.

Hi,

in our system we usually display an information if someone locks data that another user tries to edit. Like: "Data locked by <user>/<program>"

We have a global that is set at userlogin with following information:

^BA020(0,3,$job) = "<user>;<program>"

We show that information by getting the jobnr/owner from the locktable ^$LOCK("<ref>","OWNER") and looking at ^BA020.
