Hi All,Can you please any one tell me how to find the last compilation date of routine.

Running TuneTable accounts among other the parameter named Block Count. In documentation, we see that this is an approximate numbers of 2K-blocks in which SQL-maps are stored. Databases in recent Cache doesn't support 2K-physical blocks so SQL-blocks are not physical blocks as it seems. So two questions:

- what are these blocks?

- how knowledge about count of blocks can help in SQL optimization?

Thanks for intelligent answer to stupid questions!

A new Health Connect customer has a few experienced Java folks on their interface team. As they get more into Health Connect and learn Caché ObjectScript they thought it would be useful to have a list of common Java statements with an equivalent statement in ObjectScript. They mentioned string manipulation as an example, but would be interested in other areas as well.
 
This seems like something that is probably already floating around somewhere. Does anyone have something like this or other "COS jumpstart for Java devs" materials?
Thanks,
Marc

I'm working on a REST service which will include a binary stream as a request property. I'm currently encoding the stream as BASE64 and passing it as a string value, but I was wondering if there is anything in the Caché JSON support that may be a better fit for encoding this data? Thanks Chris

Lets say i have a record "Person". If i want to access the "Name" property of that object which one of the following best option performance wise

1. Option 1

set record = ##class(Test.Person).%OpenId(1)

write record.Name

2. Option 2

 write ##class(Test.Person).NameGetStored(1)

Microsoft Office has components for using in third party applications: COM Objects for C++ and Interop Assemblies for .Net programming.

Many Cache projects used to include calls to those libraries. However, recently this solution started being problematic.

There are two main reasons - legal and technical. Let’s check the details.

Microsoft technology support

Microsoft is supporting Office Automation only for desktop computing. 

It shall not be used for server computing, as they offer Sharepoint for this scenario. Have a look here:


Recently I wrote about automatic removal of system methods from the codebase.

Today, I'm ready to present you a working solution (codename: SMR) for this task.

Hi all,

We've found that in most cases when we open a new CSP session the CGI varaiable %CGIEVAR("HTTP_COOKIE") contains the client name.

It looks like that : "state=SYSADM%3A0; Username=Urish; CSPWSERVERID=Cache for Windows (x86-64) 2013.1.1 (Build 501_1_13062) Sun Aug 11..."
In some other cases this CGI only contains  $zv - like "CSPWSERVERID=Cache for Windows (x86-64) 2013.1.1 (Build 501_1_13062) Sun Aug 11 2013 23:20:33 EDT"

This is a list of all the posts in the Data Platforms’ capacity planning and performance series in order. Also a general list of my other posts. I will update as new posts in the series are added.

You will notice that I wrote some posts before IRIS was released and refer to Caché. I will revisit the posts over time, but in the meantime, Generally, the advice for configuration is the same for Caché and IRIS. Some command names may have changed; the most obvious example is that anywhere you see the ^pButtons command, you can replace it with ^SystemPerformance.

While some posts are updated to preserve links, others will be marked as strikethrough to indicate that the post is legacy. Generally, I will say, "See: some other post" if it is appropriate.

Capacity Planning and Performance Series

Generally, posts build on previous ones, but you can also just dive into subjects that look interesting.

• Part 1 - Getting started on the Journey, collecting metrics.
• Part 2 - Looking at the metrics we collected.
• Part 3 - Focus on CPU.
• Part 4 - Looking at memory.
• Part 5 - Monitoring with SNMP.
• Part 6 - Caché storage IO profile.
• Part 7 - ECP for performance, scalability and availability.
• Part 8 - Hyper-Converged Infrastructure Capacity and Performance Planning
• Part 9 - Caché VMware Best Practice Guide
• Part 10 - VM Backups and IRIS freeze/thaw scripts
• Part 11 - Virtualizing large databases - VMware cpu capacity planning

We are trying to understand how websocket connections from a javascript client may timeout in cache. Does anyone know if and of the session timeout or any other timeouts apply to any synchronous websocket connections? I have not been able to prove that they do timeout at all.

Hi,

I have a requirement to convert uname -n (Unix comamnd) with its equivalent Cache class. Can anyone help on this please

This article explains the basics of OpenVMS file structures, from a Caché prospective, and what you need to know to read and write any OpenVMS file with Caché, even the files with difficult file structures.

Hi All,

We are accessing the InterSystems`s cache database via UNIX ODBC and displaying the data in PHP website . Recently we have upgraded the PHP version to 5.6.  We are getting the nondisplayable characters (�) for only strings. But the numbers and date fields are displaying correctly. 

While querying the database via ISQL everything working fine (No Special characters).

I have looked around the internet and found the PHP 5.6 changed the default character to UTF-8.

For this issue anything, we can do from cache side.

Hello, I would like to know if CACHE has any limitations on uploading files.
Why am I asking this, why am I going through a problem here.
What happens is that when uploading files or images that are larger than 2.7 MB CACHE is limiting the size to 2.7 MB, any file larger than that is saved corrupted.
Already at the time of uploading the file or image, CACHE is limiting the size of the file to 2.6 MB.

Hi,

I have a requirement to replace $ZF("%ZSET_DIR","/hold/rsm") to its equivalent Cache Class. The $ZF("%ZSET_DIR") sets the Current folder equivalent to "cd" command in Unix.

Can anyone help on this, please

Thanks & Regards,

I tried to make atelier look more like XCODE with this simple trick or tip: change the default font to SF Mono and size 14.

To do it I did:

1) Install SF Mono font in the system which is the default font for XCODE and needs to be installed in order to use it.

You can find it in: /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app/Contents/Resources/Fonts

Double Click SFMono-Regular.otf file and install it. You will get a warning of "serious problems" but it will work all right.

Hi Everyone,

         I have frequently received this below error message in my ensemble 2009 Cconsole log.

         " 11/08-13:05:06:114 (9784) 2 Skipping SET due to compare and swap failed on ^["^^e:\test\data\"]Debug("CalcTotal1") for records in e:\test\data\ addr=39745548 "

        Please explain this, am very much trouble with this alert. And also want to know it will cause any system hangsup ?

please response quickly. Thanks

Thanks for all replies in advance.  In monitoring our audit log we are getting the error below.  We have 4 different servers running CACHE  2014.1.1 and this is happening on all 4 of them.  I have not been able to find what process is trying to logon but it is happening every 30 minutes.  We have no user processes that are running so this has to be a CACHE process.  Does anyone have an Ideal what could be running to cause this?  What kind of trace can I run to determine what process is running it?

I need to catch the user using a bookmark to get into the application in the 'middle'; i.e. the user is getting into the application not  at the home page.  I've tried OnPreHTTP to redirect, but I can't catch the new session, and it doesn't redirect.

How can you redirect to the home page upon login?

Thanks,

Laura

In this post I would like to talk about the syslog table.  I will cover what it is, how you look at it, what the entries really are, and why it may be important to you.  The syslog table can contain important diagnostic information.  If your system is having any problems, it is important to understand how to look at this table and what information is contained there.

hi,

I have created a asp web service and it is hosted in our internal server. How can i consume that web service in cache class method? It is a soap web service with xml input and xml output. It works fine in all the browser.

This is the first article in a series discussing how to regain disk space from Caché databases at the operating system level. This introductory article discusses Caché database growth and gives an overview of various methods you can use to return unused disk space that is allocated to database files back to the file system. But before we talk about returning space to the file system, let’s first review how does it get allocated in the first place.
