Hello,
I got the idea for this application, because for my work we have a process that currently uses legacy Vista code called MailMan to transfer files using email.I thought I could create a process in HealthConnect (IRIS Interoperability) to replace the need for having the legacy code.I have seen File Passthrough and TCP Passthrough Operations that can transfer a stream (file content) into a file or through TCP connection.I did not find Email Passthrough Operation, so I decided to create it.It receives request with a stream that has the content of the file.
Hello,
While working on my Iris contest application FileMailer, I got an error today trying to send email with code that used to work.I added debugging entries and I can see it happens in %Net.SMTP class "Send" method.I am not using any credentials or SSL.I see it opens |TCP|25 device.It issues a series of commands to SMTP server (I was testing with smtp.va.gov and port 25)."init" command gets 220 response. It runs "Login" method.Response is 250.The next command is "MAIL FROM" and I see 250 in the response with sender ok.The next command is "RCPT TO".

Hi Developers,
It's December the 1st! And this means that the Advent of Code 2019 has been started!
And you are very welcome to participate in the ObjectScript contest!
Hi Developers!
For those who want to participate in the Advent of Code 2019 and code with ObjectScript in IRIS, I created a very simple but handy Github Template.
Use the green button
to copy template in your own repo, clone the repo and run in the repo folder:
docker-compose up -d
you will get InterSystems IRIS 2019.4 Community Edition running with the template classes to load input data from files and Day1 solution.
This is also set up to start crafting solutions of Advent of Code 2019 and edit, compile and debug ObjectScript with VSCode addon.
Happy coding with Advent of Code 2019!

Continuing on from my last post, I am posting my succesful output for the Day 2 Part 1 below.
A full explanation of Day 2 part 1 can be found at: https://adventofcode.com/2018/day/2 and the input can be found

A brief description of this exercise is that you receive a sequence of strings.
You have to count the if any duplicate or triplicate chars exist in the string. Multiples will exist, but if you find multiple ldupicates / triplicates you will count them once.
At the end of sequence of strings you have to SUM the no.
I know it's late, but I really love the advent of code theme each year to find some project ideas to go out and code something and push myself.
I had the intentions of completing the AOC 2018 before the new year, but I've got 2 young kids (1yo and 4yo), so most nights I just want to sleep.
I've been looking at this on my half hourly commute each day before and after work.
So whilst doing this, I found not many people had posted what they had done and in previous years.
I'd found this helpful when I've got stuck for ideas, so I thought I would post what I've done (that works) and see how others

Hi Community!
We try a new approach to the InterSystems Developers YouTube Videos called "Coding Talks"!
Coding Talks is a short video in which the developer demonstrates a particular feature or functionality of InterSystems Data Platforms which he/she uses to in coding. Typical format: the face on side and editor with ObjectScript.
Check this video I made by myself participating in Advent of Code 2018 and coding with InterSystems ObjectScript in VSCode.

Are you ready for the next Advent of Code this year?
Just a few days left, the first puzzles will unlock on December 1st at midnight Eastern Time.
Not sure if I will manage to find time to solve those puzzles as quickly as last year, but hope some of you will do. We still have our leaderboard, you can join 130669-ab1f69bf. So, we will see who the best.
