Best way to compare two arrays for "equality" (same subscripts and values)

I've been trying to write a method to compare two local variables, which may be arrays, for "equality" - that is, to see if they have all the same subscripts (if they're arrays) and values. This is the best I've come up with so far - are there any better/simpler approaches out there?

Looking for a good routine/class for purging Caché backups

A customer is using Caché online backups and needs to automatically purge the cbk files with a scheduled task.

This is a wheel has been reinvented uncountable times already and I know somebody out there has a well written, extremely robust version that has already stood the test of time.

Does anyone have a nice routine/class/task for purging old Caché backup files?

How to extract column sorting of %ZEN.tablePane with or without snapShot

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>)=""

How to display or save stack information?

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:

Manage data types with %ZEN.proxyObject and Ens.Util.JSON.ObjectToJSONStream()

Hello,

I am trying to use %ZEN.proxyObject to send out in JSON format so I do:

set tBody = ##class(%GlobalCharacterStream).%New()
do ##class(Ens.Util.JSON).ObjectToJSONStream(tProxyRequest,.tBody,"aelotwu")

Concatenate columns in results with GROUP BY?

FROM HS_IHE_ATNA_Repository.Aggregation
WHERE EventType = 'LOGIN'
AND LocalDateTime > '2016-02-16 11:00:00'
GROUP BY EventType, InitiatedAt

Ens.Rule.FunctionSet without parameter?

I'm writing some custom functions for use in a routing rule. I have a few that are working, but right now I'm trying to use one that has no parameters. Typically this would be a sub instead of a function, but I'm not familiar enough with Cache to know what I need to do here.

It is easy to receive JSON representation or dynamic Array from %ListOfDataTypes:

do l.Insert("a")
do l.Insert("b")
do l.Insert("c")

set arrStr=l.$toJSON()
zwrite arrStr
set arr=l.$compose([])
zwrite arr

[SOLVED (KIND OF)] Missing something obvious trying to do a lookup in a method

So calling this lookup manually from the console works as expected:

PHR>set key = "WMMC_IMM"
PHR>w ##class(Ens.Util.FunctionSet).Lookup("BlockFeed",key)
1

However, calling it from a method with some concatination to build the key is giving me problems:
