One for Luca, perhaps?

Interesting article here:

Would this be a fit for Cache / IRIS containerisation?

Not sure I fully "get" what's being proposed in the article, mind you.

The challenge for today consists of capsules that bounce through a maze of spinning discs.
The capsule can fall through a hole of each disc if they hit the disc at position 0,  each disc has a fixed amount of positions that rotate every second.
The distance between the release and the first disc is one second, as is the distance between each consecutive disc as well.

I am using Cache FTP classes to download from a FTP site files, that include zip files.

I can retrieve the whole file into a stream, but it contains a lot garbage.

In trying to understand Atelier I am directed to go through its hierarchy type of documentation.

Is the Atelier documentation going to continue as a hierarchy or at some point is it going to be integrated into the InterSystems type of documentation?

When looking for an answer it would be nice to use only one method.

Hi,

How can i create Task for background process and use JOB in that task.

Hi, folks!

Consider I need to perform some logic which should fire because values of object properties has been changed.

Is there ANY reason for using class callbacks %OnBeforeSave or %OnAfterSave instead of Trigger?

I have a couple of new namespaaces/databases that are read-only.  I don't remember changing them to read-only, and although my username has %all (I installed the system), I am unable to change the "Always mount as read-only" property.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Laura

The challenge today is about some basic cryptography : you will have to generate data for a one-time pad (OTP) (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-time_pad for more info).

You need to generate keys by taking the MD5 of a pre-arranged salt (your puzzle input), and an increasing integer index starting with 0.

Hi communauty

I've two columns in my table and the type must be interval of integer values for example : age must be interval between [2 and 6] years and wigth between [10 and 30 ] Kg , how can i define them when creating my table?

thank's

Hi communauty

i work on the Oauth2 authentification patry in my application , i read a lot of documentation , but i don't know exactly what does it mean by Claims values and the method "SetClaimValue", what does it do really?

can anyone explain for me.

Thank's.

I’ve hit the wall. I’m a one person shop who wants to start developing Cache on a mac using Eclipse/Atelier, after using Studio for the last 5 years. I’ve installed the 1.1 beta plugin, watched 6 or 7 videos from the September conference, tried several times to work through the cheat sheets, only to have connection issues or compilation issues, so at this point, I’m feeling very frustrated. The videos were interesting, but generally didn’t work as tutorials for fundamental programming operations, for me.

When a class containing a method generator is compiled, the code that implements the method at runtime is written according to the instructions in the method definition. 

Hello guys,
I'm having a problem on a sign-up screen, what happens is that this screen is not reloaded after clicking save, and that's where the problem arises, on that screen it is possible to upload images, but as everything is loaded with submit, the record would have to be updated so I had all the information, which does not happen.
With this I'm trying to find a way to get the information from the file loaded in the "file" component to get the data in "% request.MimeData".
The only way I've found it so far has been to reload the whole page, but that's all I do not want to do.

A third party developer has asked for access to the documentation of my classes so he can understand my tables/classes better.

• How do I give access the the documentation of my classes (single namespace)  and secondary, do I need to give  him access to %system. (and others)
• Is it possible to block the likes of ensemble, Iknow, deepSee etc. I don't use those, and I don't want him to waste time (and my money) exploring areas that simply not necessary
• what privilege roles do I need to give him  whilst still maintaing security.

Today, you have to find a path through a maze. To know if a coordinate is a wall or an open space, you will have to do a calculation like this :

x*x + 3*x + 2*x*y + y + y*y
Add the office designer's favorite number (your puzzle input).
Find the binary representation of that sum; count the number of bits that are 1.
  - If the number of bits that are 1 is even, it's an open space.
  - If the number of bits that are 1 is odd, it's a wall.

As many of you, our partners, are more widely using modern UI frameworks to create client front-end, you may have encountered a question, "So how do I secure my data when I just finished developing all new fancy browser based client experience?"

The answer is easy. Use a standard, proven OAuth2 and OpenID!

"OK, but how can I do it? I have never done it before."

No problem, just have a look here, if your client is Angular (not AngularJS) based, there is a demo project available for you to review and get inspired!

Hi community

i'm working on the validation user method , i found this following  code in the  \HSIE\%SYS\Classes\%OAuth2\Server\Validate.cls  

ClassMethod ValidateUser(username As %String, password As %String, scope As %ArrayOfDataTypes, properties As %OAuth2.Server.Properties, Output sc As %Status) As %Boolean
{
    // Check if user is defined.
    // We use local Cache user list as the shipped default.
    If '##class(Security.Users).Exists(username,.user,.sc) || $$$ISERR(sc) {
        If $$$ISERR(sc),$$$GETERRORCODE(sc)=$$$ERRORCODE($$$UserDoesNotExist) {
            Set sc=$$$OK
        }
        Quit 0
    }
    
    // Check the password
    If password'="",'##class(Security.Users).CheckPassword(user,password) {
        Quit 0
    }
    
    // Get the properties associated with this user.
    Set sc=##class(Security.Users).GetProperties(user,.prop)
    If $$$ISERR(sc) Quit 0

    // Use the Cache roles for the user to setup a custom property.
    Set sc=##class(Security.Roles).RecurseRoleSet(prop("Roles"),.roles)
    If $$$ISERR(sc) Quit 0
    set roles=prop("Roles")
    Do properties.CustomProperties.SetAt(roles,"roles")

    // Setup claims for profile and email OpenID Connect scopes.
    Do properties.SetClaimValue("sub",username)
    Do properties.SetClaimValue("preferred_username",username)
    If $get(prop("EmailAddress"))'="" {
        Do properties.SetClaimValue("email",prop("EmailAddress"))
        Do properties.SetClaimValue("email_verified",0,"boolean")
    }
    If $get(prop("FullName"))'="" {
        Do properties.SetClaimValue("name",prop("FullName"))
    }
    If $get(prop("PhoneNumber"))'="" {
        Do properties.SetClaimValue("phone_number",prop("PhoneNumber"))
        Do properties.SetClaimValue("phone_number_verified",0,"boolean")
    }
    
    // Setup claim for when user last updated.
    If $get(prop("LastModifiedDateTime"))'="" {
        Set time=##class(%OAuth2.Utils).TimeInSeconds(prop("LastModifiedDateTime"),0)
        Do properties.SetClaimValue("updated_at",time,"number")
    }
    Quit 1

Once upon a time ...  No it's not a fairy tale.
In the beginning of Caché (and before) you had your partition to run your code. Part of that partition was a space with all your local variables nicely sorted by %,A,..Z,a,...z

I am trying to make Caché perform certain actions depending on whether a particular property of the object was changed using triggers.

For example, say I have this class:

Class Dummy.Class Extends %Persistent {

Property Name As %String;
Property Visible As %Boolean;

Trigger OnUpdate [ Event = UPDATE/DELETE, Time = BEFORE ] {
    if ({Published*O} = 0) && ({Published*N} = 1) {
        do ..CertainAction({ID})
    }
}

ClassMethod %OnBeforeSave(insert As %Boolean) As %Status [ Private, ServerOnly = 1 ] {
    // ... ?
}

ClassMethod CertainAction(objId) {
    set ^test = "Object ID=" _ objId _ " has just become visible!"
}

}

Today, you need to make a compiler for the language assembunny.
Luckily, this language has only 4 instructions :

cpy x yinc xdec x

For example :

cpy 41 a
inc a
inc a
dec a
jnz a 2
dec a

After executing these instructions, the register a would contain 42.

Does anyone know where to find a cache.node that works with Cache version 2016.1.1.108.0? I am currently getting  this:

Error: Unable to load shared library C:\InterSystems\TryCache\bin\cache.node''

I am using Windows 7 Pro + SP1.

Thanks!

I would like to remove all the active locks and roll back all the on-going transactions.

Is there any COS command I could use?

By the way, any command I could see the current on-going locks and transactions?

Thanks.

The challenge today is about microchips and generators. A microchip belongs to one particular generator, and the two can be on the same floor, or in the same elevator. But if a microchip is with another generator on the same floor or elevator, it will get toasted, except if his own generator is also on the same floor/elevator.

In today's challenge, you have to execute instructions that control how bots are handling microchips.

Using the CSP Page Statistics

Application Performance Management

Introduction

A key part of Application Performance Management (APM) is recording the activity and performance of user activity. For many web applications the closest you can get to this is to record the CSP pages or CSP based services being dispatched.

If the pages or service names are meaningful and they indicate the business activity being performed the CSP page statistics can be very useful in building up a historical record of activity, performance and resource usage.

Today's challenge is about decompressing input that is compressed in an experimental format.
In the format, markers indicate how much time a number of characters need to be repeated.

For example :

A(1x5)BCABBBBBC7(3x3)XYZ9

I have a Cache-compatible sql script file and each query is separate by white space.

How could I ask Cache to execute all the queries in this file and dump the result to a specified file?

Thanks.

Hello, I'm looking for books on Caché / Ensemble.

I'm new and would like to learn more about native functions.

Thank you

Hello All,

what is the best method for search a portion of text in a non-indexed global?

I need to implement an autocomplete kind of search, in a global of >1M registers (text type, not $lb)

Maybe the best way would be use a SQL mapped class, with 'Bitmap' indexes?

Thanks in advance!
