InterSystems ObjectScript extension for VS Code, version 3.0.1

Am also asking this question on the extension's GitHub page: Request textDocument/documentSymbol failed. Error: name must not be falsy · intersystems-community/vscode-objectscript · Discussion #1530 - but suspect more eyes will see it here, which might help gather additional information.

We are receiving the report in text format and it has special characters like ', - like that in the text. Source system is using the UTF8 encoding format hence the text is showing as ' � ' . Is there a way to convert the utf8 to actual character in the DTL.

Thank you,

Some languages ​​have the concept of a garbage collector for automatic memory management. I'd like to know if something like this exists in InterSystems Caché in the context of routines, %CSP.REST, or %CSP.Page.

The question arises from the %Close() method of the %RegisteredObject class. This indicates that I need to manually clear the object from memory if it's no longer in use, or in the web context, if the request has completed. Is this correct? Or am I completely wrong?

Thank you!

Message Count

Looking for a SQL query or any other method to find the Unique/distinct message counts for all productions or at least per production namespace within a given time frame. For e.g TimeCreated = January 2025 (Whole month)

I have used the following, but its not restricting the numbers based on the TimeCreated filter. Every time a new message is processed by system, its added to the total. I am running the query in today's date

Select Sum(MsgCount)

From

(Select DISTINCT TargetConfigName, count(DISTINCT SessionID) as MsgCount

FROM ENS.MessageHeader

Is there any way of saving a representation of the results of a query created in the Message Viewer to a file - most obviously CSV.

We are reasonably adept at creating queries. We'd like to be able to send the output to a file, rather than resorting to cut'n'pasting from the message viewer window...

Is this possible? (on any version of Ensemble/Iris?)

Desired output to file something like:

HL7 DTL formatting

I need a DTL to handle this.

Any ideas appreciated.

For all Prosthetics orders:
when ORC-1(Order Control) is "NW" (New Order), need to update OBR-18(Placer Field 1) based on PV1-2 (Patient Class) value.
assumption is that the selection logic is that all prosthetics orders with OBR-18 field is always blank.
Description :
If PV1-2 is I, insert I in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is O, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is E, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is P, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is R, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is B, insert O in OBR-18

HL7 Pass-through interface

For historic reasons we've got a mix of ADT feeds coming out of our PAS (TrakCare) to a wide range of downstream systems. In particular, there are some that are direct from TrakCare to the downstream systems, and many more that pass through Ensemble as our integration engine.

This is complicating management of the integrations, and so we'd like everything to go through the integration engine. In other words move from the flow in the top of the diagram to the flow in the bottom of the diagram:

We have classes in a Production environment that are causing us some issues - example attached.

When we export them from the production environment the XML contains a snippet like the following:

<UDLText name="T">
<Content><![CDATA[
//Property any As list Of %XML.String(XMLNAME = "any", XMLPROJECTION = "ANY") [ SqlFieldName = _any ];

]]></Content>
</UDLText>

When imported and compiled into an Ensemble instance this class works as expected.

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a practical project guide to help me gain hands-on experience with InterSystems Ensemble HL7. Ideally, this guide would walk through building a small project — something that covers key concepts like message routing, transformations, and interoperability.

Hi ,

I have a scheduler task and an associated class that works.

Class Sample.Util.CreateTask Extends (%SYS.Task.Definition, %Persistent)
{

Parameter PROPERTYVALIDATION = 1;

Parameter TaskName = "Sample.Util.CreateTask";

Method OnTask() As %Status
{
// Perform the logic
}

}

Is there a way to Enable or Disable the above task "CreateTask()" from an external function/Method/class ?

Management Portal and IIS

When accessing management portal through IIS the page is not fully rendered and the buttons/links that are displayed don't work.

Management Portal works fine through private web-server.

Have just set up IIS/CSP Gateway to access Ensemble, and accessing the CSP Gateway configuration pages through IIS works fine (screenshot at end of post).

This is the view when accessing management portal through IIS (port 80) - missing images, links don't work, not all content displayed:

Is there a generic process for "walking" the structure of a virtual document - eg an HL7 message (EnsLib.HL7.Message) or an XML document (EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document).

At least we'd want to be able to visit all "nodes" (HL7 fields or sub-fields, XML nodes) in the virtual document and be able to work out/generate the Property Path (so we could call "GetValueAt").

We can just about come up with something generic for HL7, since it only nests down to 4 levels within each segment, though we're using numeric Property Path's at that point rather than symbolic ones (MSH:1.3 etc).

Is it possible to audit code changes in a namespace?

Ideally what we'd like to be able to do is check which classes were compiled (or deleted) in a time period, eg in last 3 months, and which user made those changes. Even better would be an audit of what those changes were, but that's less important (for us, as we can probably find that information in other ways).

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.

Dear, Community!

I have a concern about using %Stream.TmpCharacter for storage purposes. Reading the class's source code, I can understand a bit about how it works. But I'd like to know from the community how it actually works. Is it necessary to use the .Clear() method to clear this buffer, or is it done automatically upon disposal?

Note: Please forgive my poor English.
