#Caché

Greetings.

I'm currently struggling with launching a routine from the command prompt using ccontrol.

Basically I have a routine with a parameter which works fine using the following:
ccontrol cterminal ^ANDYTST(\"c:\temp\\\") USER

This receives c:\temp\ then in the routine.
However, when there is a space inside the parameter it assumes that it receives a script.
I can still run it using ccontrol terminal, but that then tells me the argument is invalid.
Therefore, is there something like a placeholder for whitespaces?
And, is it possible to hand it the credentials?
Or is there a better way to launch a

MessagePack is a binary-based efficient object serialization library. It enables to exchange structured objects between many languages like JSON. But unlike JSON, it is very fast and small.

Any chance of adding support for MessagePack?

Hello,

For CachéQuality I'd love to be able to create issues when the programmer uses classes which are deprecated for this or that version of Caché... But short of reading all the changelogs of all versions, I can't really tell when a command appeared (for instance RETURN; I know now that it appeared in 2014.x, but it took me some time to realize that), or when a (set of) class(es) became deprecated (for instance %GlobalCharacterStream to be replaced with %Stream.GlobalCharacter -- I don't even know since which version this is true :/).

Is there an existing source which I am missing?

Hello,

I hereby announce the creation of an IRC channel dedicated to Caché development:

* network: FreeNode (connect to server: irc.freenode.net)

* channel: ##cos (yes, two hashes).

Topic is anything related to Caché development in spite of the name (and the fact that of Caché development I only really know about COS anyway), so sorry in advance for the restrictive channel name :)

Waiting for you here! (my nick is idletask on freenode)

Side note: that would be a good opportunity to launch a project of an IRC bot in COS...

I am happy to share the news that Zen Mojo 1.1.1 has been released. This release includes many improvements and bugfixes, the most important are:

• Multiple improvements for the offline bundle generation, e.g. subfolders are correctly copied to the target folder
• Optimizations for the dojo library, including a reduced load time by prepackaging required widgets into a single JS file
• The utility functions $show and $hide are now supported by the dojo and chart.js plugin
• Zen Mojo now stops event propagation by default.

During a fine breakfast at Global Summit 2016 I was asked about the %DEFAULTDB database that now appears when creating the %ALL namespace. Until the documentation on "Mapping a Package Across Multiple Namespaces"  is updated to include the use of subscript level mapping for all namespaces here is a brief explanation for this change in 2016.1: When creating a global subscript level mapping in the %ALL namespace the database that was used for the non-subscripted global could not be set to be the default database for each namespace.

Hello everyone,

I have discussed extensively with Andrew Cheshire, the author of the Atelier parser (which I'll be able to hack on and reuse for CachéQuality -- yay!), and while we were at it, we also discussed code coverage.

We ended up talking about the ZBREAK command and its /TRACE option.

It appears that combining this command and the unit test runner, we can indeed do code coverage (Andrew also told me about a way to map "back" routine lines to original lines in the source code).

So, according to the information above and this page, a sequence of possible command would be (provided we are

I interested on how others feel on this subject.  In general terms when you have a class that extends from %XML.Adaptor and you call XMLExport no validation is automatically done as part of the XMLExport process.  As an example if you do the following

SAMPLES>S tPatient=##Class(Sample.Person).%New()
 
SAMPLES>Set tPatient.Name="asdfghjklqwrrrrokkfkljbvkfbjflkbjflkbjblkjblkjdblkjblkcn l nn klkjdfkbjdlkbjlkbj"
SAMPLES>w tPatient.XMLExport(,",indent")
<Person>
  <Name>asdfghjklqwrrrrokkfkljbvkfbjflkbjflkbjblkjblkjdblkjblkcn l nn klkjdfkbjdlkbjlkbj</Name>
</Person>

where tPatient.Name has a value which

Hello community!

Two new rules have been implemented:

OS0061: unsafe namespace switch

This rule detects when the body of a method contains two or more of the following statements:

• set $namespace = something, or
• znspace something.

If this is the case, it then checks whether there is a new $namespace prior to those two declarations; if not, it raises a warning.

List of issues currently found here:

OS0062: confusing identifiers

This rule detects whether either of a method argument, or a local

Hello!

Link: https://demo.cachequality.com

In this presentation, developer oriented, we will cover this tool, how it works, how you can use it/administer it, etc. Duration 30 minutes.

The topics will include:

• a short presentation of Caché Quality and SonarQube (which this plugin uses),
• a demonstration of the rules and how to tailor them to your need.

Questions will be more than welcome! Hope to see you there!

And a big thanks to Evgeny Shvarov who made this possible!

Does anyone know any sites who configure an async reporting member to connect to two different failover mirroring sets ?

I know this is supported, but I would like to know how it is working in real world systems.

Any information would be appreciated.

 

Here's my code (download):

Class Utils.Generators [ Abstract ]
{

ClassMethod B()
{
    s ^a = 1
}

ClassMethod A() [ CodeMode = objectgenerator, GenerateAfter = B, PlaceAfter = B ]
{
    k ^a
    do ..B()
}

Now, obviously for it to work I need method B compiled and ready to use before compiling method A().

I test it with the following code:

do $system.OBJ.UnCompile("Utils.Generator")
do $system.OBJ.Compile("Utils.Generator")

Yet, I receive the following compilation error:

Compilation started on 04/10/2016 18:39:04 with qualifiers ''
Compiling class Utils.Generator
ERROR #5002: Cache

I am pleased to announce the next 2016.2 field test kit, 2016.2.0.632.0.

Since I haven’t sent an update to this thread in a while it should come as no surprise that there have been quite a few changes since I wrote about build 609.  In fact, there have been over 175 changes in 50 different areas, with the majority of changes in:

• Atelier
• DOCUMENT Data Model
• SQL
• DeepSee

The most changes since build 609 are in Atelier and the biggest Atelier change is that the Atelier client is no longer bundled with the field test kit.  The latest Atelier client is available HERE.

Hi,

I need to give an answer for a RFP where it'll be considered an extra to have a failover system where each member of the failover is located in a different datacenter, separated by more than 100-200 miles.

Presenter: Anton Umnikov
Task: Run SQL queries quickly on huge amounts of data
Approach: Use a shared-nothing architecture to leverage a cluster of small, cost-effective servers
 

Explains how a shared nothing architecture allows you to leverage a cluster of small, costeffective servers to serve query results that would have taken much longer on a single, big and expensive box. This brings affordable horizontal scalability.

Hi -

I'm trying to create a method that will automatically create something I can save and use later, which will let me automate data migration from one version of a class to the next.

When I compile a normal persistent class, a "storage" gets created, and I would like to be able to archive some code that would let me recreate this "old storage" so I could access an "older version" from a global and map the values into the current mapping of the class.

Presenter: Jeff Semmens
Task: Model and access data as objects in .NET without designing the database first
Approach: Use InterSystems Entity Framework
 

Description: Come and experience how you can design your database model in .NET and evolve it over time by leveraging the Entity Framework.

Problem: Current bindings require database-first design. I cannot design my model in .NET.

Solution: The Entity Framework is an object-relational mapping framework that allows data-oriented applications to model and access their data as objects in .NET. Database- first is still supported but will fade away in future releases.

Hello all,

I know it is perhaps too vague question, but anyway:

Do you have experience from running a thick (preferably .NET) application in any of these modes - client installed locally, Terminal Server, Citrix ? Say, there are around 300-400 concurrent users using application.

Can you share your observations / opinions?

Thank you!

Hi all,

I've been looking for a way to extract the sorting  from the ^CacheTemp.zenData global that contain the tablePane snapshot data in order to use it on a report following the current UI sorting criteria.

I could see that if the column is sorted by one column, new entries with this structure are created:

^CacheTemp.zenData(<sessionId>,<snapShotId>,<tablePaneId>,"index",<columnId>,<value>,<dataId>)=""

These are created the first time that the sort criteria is applied (asc) and has the same amount of entries as the data being displayed.

Hi!

Does anyone have an example of subj?

I know there is google service for it. Anyone uses it in production? What is the feedback?

In case of positive feedback would you please post the code example?

TIA!

Hi

I have been experimenting with the creation of a set of REST services for an app.  The basic GET operation is set to create a %ZEN.proxyObject instance, and then set an instance of a Persistant class as a property, which gives me all of the values I want to return.  However, it also gives me some values that I don't want to return over REST (because they are both private, and large registered objects which will bog down performance)

How do I remove these values from the ZENproxyObject?  I can only see a full clear() in the documentation, but nothing which can remove individual elements

Thanks

Hello.

For debugging purposes I  sometimes need to display stack information to the current device or save it (to a global for example).

There is this snippet offered in documentation:

ClassMethod StackToDisplay()
{
    For loop = 0:1:$Stack(-1) {
        Write !, "Context level:", loop, ?25, "Context type: ", $Stack(loop)
        Write !, ?5, "Current place: ", $Stack(loop, "PLACE")
        Write !, ?5, "Current source: ", $Stack(loop, "MCODE")
        Write !
    }
}

And to save stack to a global there's always an exception method:

ClassMethod StackToGlobal()
{
    Set ex =
