It helps to remove special characters, such as non-utf-8 characters either control characters or unicode characters from text that is not printable or can't be parsed by downstream systems.

There is also $C(32) in this condition; sometimes NBSP appears in the text and it will not be recognized by TIE, but downstream it displays as "?".

Hello, we are currently using the Cache Database released in January 2018.

There are no specific classes or SQL mappings in the namespaces where data is stored.

Only a few routines(.mac) and stored data are in the global area.

In this case, when accessing the Cache DB through Java, is it essential to write SQL mappings or wrapper classes? The reason I ask is that our team doesn't have advanced developers who specialize in Cache.

Alternatively, is it possible to directly call pre-existing routines from Java?

When using standard SQL or the object layer in InterSystems IRIS, metadata consistency is usually maintained through built-in validation and type enforcement. However, legacy systems that bypass these layers—directly accessing globals—can introduce subtle and serious inconsistencies.

i have a line in my *.scr file like this:

send: s rlt=##class(%SYS.Namespace).ListAll(.rlt)<CR>

Using Cache 2017.2 sever as my target.

I have a x64 Ubuntu client setup going. This is NOT server. Just client.

I have the Linux Ubuntu x64 ODBC driver gzip file.

ODBC-2018.1.5.659.0-lnxubuntux64.tar.gz is all I could find. Someone posted it in another post.

I can connect to a test sever that does NOT use SSL. That works pretty easily.

But I have A server with SSL enabled. With Windows Cache ODBC drivers I can use SSL just fine.

This is what my SSLDefs.ini file on the Windows machines look like and it works just fine.

I ask ChatGPT periodically to produce ObjectScript or plain MUMPS code for string manipulation, or for implementing known algorithms etc. Occasionally, it does make mistakes or uses non-existing class members but generally not that bad. Is there any tutorial on the subject of using AI for coding, ideally specifically for ObjectScript/MUMPS? Any AI productivity advice, or tricks you are using, or another AI flavor?

Thanks in advance,
Anna

Hey everyone.

I'm currently looking at a process where we're utilising the Class Ens.StreamContainer, and was looking to do some deletions outside of any purge routines.

Having been burned before, I wanted to make sure that deleting the container also deletes the contents within.

From looking in the class, the %OnDelete ClassMethod appears to be removing an index from a search table and nothing more.

Hello,

One of our clients has a 'Notes' class with over 3 million records. We have a report that pulls data from this table that was taking about an hour to run. Our test environment (which has a copy of the production database) runs the same report query in 1 second.

We attempted to purge and rebuild indices which made an improvement (down to 15 minutes) but still not great.
