Question Murillo Braga · Aug 31, 2017

Hello guys,

I was wondering whether there is another alternative to extracting a certain string out from a bigger one, rather than using the function $piece.

Maybe regular expressions? Another specific function?

Example:

Big string:

NAD+SLA+++TextIsHereNAD+SLA+++TextIsHere

String I want to extract:

TextIsHere

Function I'm already using:

TextIsHereTextIsHere

Thanks!

Question Jon Astle · Sep 15, 2017

Hi I am trying to tie all terminal logins in Cache so that rather than the user being presented with the Cache login and password the user is presented with my custom login page.

I can do this via a generic user so that once the generic user logs in they are presented with my Cache login page however is there a way to do this so that I can bypass the below login page and go straight to my login?

Node: myserver, Instance: CACHE
 
Username:
Password:
 

Thanks in advance

Jon

Cache 2016.2.1

the system offers $LISTNEXT as a way of looping  in $LISTs and the documentation says this is much more efficeint than writing

for i=1:1:$LISTLENGTH(myList) { set value = $LIST (myList,i) }

I want to walk backwards in the list,

is there a $LISTPREVIOUS or do I have to use the followng syntax to achie

 for i=1:-1:$LISTLENGTH(myList)

MonCaché — MongoDB API implementation based on InterSystems Caché

Disclaimer: This article reflects author's private opinion and has no relation to the official position of InterSystems.

IDEA

The idea of the project is to implement basic MongoDB (v2.4.9) API features for searching, saving, updating and deleting documents in a way that will allow the use of InterSystems Caché instead of MongoDB without changing the code on the client side.

MOTIVATION

Perhaps, if we take an interface based on MongoDB and use InterSystems Caché for data storage, we may see a performance boost.

Introduction

Have you noticed that what ever the model and data structure in databases we cannot escape from the fundamental principle of managing data allocation space with references, i.e. pointer based logic, memory addressing ? Isn’t this the fundamental mechanism of programming languages too ? The problem I see with all these modern NoSQL databases, especially graph databases is that they provide a higher level abstraction for the end developer but they hide and lock completely the access to the low level storage and retrieval mechanism including indexes.

Question Sean Connelly · May 10, 2017

I'm looking at adding multilingual support to a couple of open source projects I'm working on. The solutions are already developed in CSP so I am not looking for alternative approaches.

I'm wondering what would be the best approach for CSP and separate JavaScript files.

Initially I was wondering if I should bake the default system language text at compile time, or provide the end user with a language selection option at run time.

I came across $$$TEXT reading the docs...

https://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.

Question Ruslan K · Aug 23, 2017

When I add a parameter to dataCombo for loading it on runtime and the property editable set to 0, dynamically loading content for dropdown through parameter works fine.

But, when I set editable to 1, to implement user search in dataCombo, loading through parameter is not working, it is loaded all rows, but I need loading on some parameter. It don't see the parameter, when editable is 1.

Is it normal behavior of dataCombo? But how about user search in dataCombo on this case? When editable is 0, we can't enter any character in dataCombo.

Hi,

I am experimenting with Cache-Python binding.  In the following piece of Python code

import intersys.pythonbind3

conn = intersys.pythonbind3.connection( )
conn.connect_now('localhost[1972]:SAMPLES', '_SYSTEM', '123', None)
samplesDB = intersys.pythonbind3.database(conn)
p10 = samplesDB.openid("Sample.Person",'10',-1,-1)

p10.run_obj_method("PrintPerson",[])

I am opening the 10th record of Sample.Person class and then I am calling an object method (PrintPerson). 

Method PrintPerson()

  {

    Write !, "Name: ", .

Question Razvan Prepelita · Sep 8, 2017

My scenario is:

I have a Cache method that

call a REST -> JSON -response  > INSERT/UPDATE the source table of a DeepSee Cube -> Update the Cube only for this change -

I want to view in .NET Application the changes. For that I want that this method should be executed at a defined interval.

Or maybe the solution is a Refresh button in .NET page. is there any way to access a Cache method from .NET?

Any idea how to do it?

Question Laura Cavanaugh · Aug 10, 2017

I have a <tablePane> element with OnCreateResultSet and OnExecuteResultSet methods; autoExecute is "false" but the OnCreateResultSet and OnExecuteResultSet methods are nevertheless called on page load.

I want the user to be able to press a button to submit the parameters, then have this button call tablePane.executeQuery() to execute the query.

autoExecute is simply igonored.  We're on 2014.1.3 with plans to upgrade to 2016 soon.

Are there more settings I need to set? Or is this attribute simply ignored?

Caché Version String: Cache for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86-64) 2016.2.1

We have a mirrored Ensemble system (110,  backup and 210, primary). At one time (14:00) there is a disruption in the production. The messages are not being processed. 

Looking at the pButtons (every 10 seconds) I see the following abnormal at the WDphase


and the backup

The different values of WDphase are:

0: Idle (WD is not running)

5: WD is updating the Write Image Journal (WIJ) file.

7: WD is committing WIJ and Journal.

8: Databases are being updated.

Introduction

Twilio is a great tool for programmatically initiating and managing phone calls. In this example we'll go over basic account setup, create a Cache Class to manage our interaction with the Twilio API, and initiate a phone call from the Cache Terminal.

The full Class used in this example is available on GitHub as well.

Setup

  1. Create an account on twilio
  2. Add a new phone number under the Manage Numbers Page.
    • This will be the number you call from.
  3. Add a new caller ID under the Verified Caller IDs Page.
    • This will be the number you call to.

This 'feature' have been around for a long time, but I don't see any articles on it so I thought I would make everyone aware.

A method is provided to customize the appearance of the Cache cube icon in the system tray so different instances can be visually distinguished.  When csystray.exe, the Cache/Ensemble cube program, starts, it will look for files named "up.ico" and "down.ico" in the \bin directory below the instance installation directory.  If these .ico files are present, csystray.exe will load the icons and display them in place of the default blue and gray Cache/Ensemble cube icons.

Question Richard Roeder · Sep 6, 2017

Hi,

I'm developing an integration between Caché servers by ODBC conection, and I have the following problem.

In this call:

call COSClass_Methode('222169^^98^155^64530^06:30^021542987897458855441112877855^1^0^281992^GC')

the ODBC driver is truncating the string to 50 characters.


If I run this same command with $system.SQL.Shell(), this doesn't occur.
I did a test creating several parameters for COSClass_Methode, and they all have a 50 character limitation.

Does anyone know why the ODBC Cache Driver limits the number of characters per parameter of this type of call?
Or, how can I adjust this?

XDATA is used for a whole host of ISC libraries to store things like Zen pages, BPL logic and DTL transformations.

XDATA is the equivalent of XML config files of the JAVA world and JSON config files of the JavaScript / NPM world.

Whilst Atelier looks to shift source code to the disk, XDATA will remain a key component to source control our projects config / meta data.

I come across many developers who overlook XDATA, seeing it as an internal function of Cache and Ensemble and instead use globals to move meta data around, I've been there myself.

Is it possible to execute a sql update statement from objectscript? This code isn't working for me.

Set tSQL = "UPDATE table Set Status = 'Completed' WHERE ID in (1,2,3,4)"
Set tStatement = ##class(%SQL.Statement).%New()
Set tSC = tStatement.%Prepare(tSQL)

If I write my dynamic sql to the event log, copy and execute it in the Management Portal, it works fine.

I wanted to share a little tidbit which is in the Studio documentation (http://docs.intersystems.com/cache20152/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls…) but many people who have been using the InterSystems Studio for a long time missed the addition of this *very* useful feature, and every time I mention this to an audience  I see at least one face light up because of how excited they are to learn about it!

Within Studio, the Output pane (View -> Output) is actually misnamed.  It is actually an Input/Output window which can be used to run Caché ObjectScript commands!

Question Nael Nasereldeen · Aug 31, 2017

Hi guys,

How do you deal with underscore characters when using jsonProvider  and exporting or importing ?

for example:

USER>s jsonString="{""what"":""1"",""up"":""2"",""test_test"":""3""}"
 
USER>set status = ##class(%ZEN.Auxiliary.jsonProvider).%ConvertJSONToObject(jsonString,,.outputObj)
 
USER>w outputObj.what
1
USER>w outputObj.up
2
USER>w outputObj.test_test
 
W outputObj.test_test
^
<UNDEFINED> *test

we found out that we can access it like this, but not sure if it's the recommended method-

w outputObj.%data("test_test")

Regards,

Nael

version 2016.2.1 on windows

I accidently clicked the mouse into the output window of studio (where you get the compile results etc) and typed soemthing in there (by mistake) and it came back with <SYNTAX>.

I've been playing with it further, and it's like a cut down version of terminal.

I can "s x=1" and the "w x" and sure enough, it will display "1" (ie the value of x)

when I call one of my utilities ie "d ^dev", my utility runs as expected, but when I try entering a value (my utility was waiting on a read *x) it generated a <SYNTAX> error.
