#Ensemble

Caché  2018.1.3 and Ensemble 2018.1.3 maintenance releases are now available.   

Full product installation kits can be downloaded from the WRC Software Distribution site.

This is a maintenance release with many updates across a wide variety of areas.

For information about the corrections in this release, refer to the release notes.

This release also adds support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, in addition to the previously supported platforms detailed in the 2018.1 Supported Platforms document.

 The build number for this release is 2018.1.3.414.0. 

The Issue

I help support a legacy ZEN application that makes extensive use of the “dataGrid” component. The application reuses a ZEN page with a“dataGrid” for different views of similar data; depending on the view, the application hides or displays some of the columns of the “dataGrid”. The application does this client-side, setting the “hidden” property of the “columnDescriptor” true or false as needed.

Hi,

I am trying to add an OR condition in the DTL but not able to. Sorry if this is a silly question, but can you advice?

I want to add a condition where if source.45 is "" or "..." then map "" to the target. But I am not able to add the OR condition

Currently I have as below

What will I need to do to add an "OR" condition to the DTL?

Would appreciate your guidance

Regards,

ED

Introducing non-persistent messages. eXpert-to-eXpert

Background

InterSystems Ensemble as a tool does a lot for the Developer. One of the nice features is the Message trace utility. It shows a message flow diagram. The diagram shows the progress of the message processing real time. You can get many-many useful information from the production. In any case, someone needs to find a bug in a production implementation, without the Message trace utility it could turn into a real nightmare. 

On the other hand, keeping message “traceability” is not for free. A heavy loaded production can very quickly run out of resources just because of the house keeping functions of Ensemble. House keeping functions such as maintaining message header, log entries, message queue generates a significant load on the Caché database used by Ensemble.

This article is about to show how to force Ensemble work more for the everyday life, instead of being prepared for “any-time-debugging”.

This is an eXpert-to-eXpert article. Therefore, I assume the deep understanding of Ensemble.

Hello,

We need to create a versioning of an existing API, so we going to set a default version (so far) for current connections to version 1

My first attempt is:

I must be missing something. We have done encoded PDF's in the past with the Encoded PDF in OBX.5.5. When I have used this code in the past I was only working with 1 OBX, but I have a case where I am having multiple OBX's and having to loop through them and I am renumbering the outbound OBX.

Hi Community,

The new video from Global summit 2019 is already on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

Hello,

Is there a way to list all items in a production (incl their status/color) by using a sql query? This is for monitoring purposes. 

Thank you in advance!

HI

We can easily do a <call> from graphic BPL's

I was wondering what is the best way we can call another Business Process or Operation via code.

Thanks in advance

I have a text file that I pick up in a Business Service and need to send it to our vendor via JSON.  I assumed (probably wrongly) that I could just create a RESTful Business Operation, plug in the server IP and URL as well as complete some of the other fields on the BO to send the file.  When I do this, I get the following error:

Hello,

Is there an elegant way to define a dynamic "Archive path" for EnsLib.File.InboundAdapter ?

What i mean is to have a sub-folders structure (under the root archive path) with a name similar to: yyyymmdd
This way the adapter "could" store the files on those sub-folders (and create a new one for the 1st file for a specific date).

When a production is processing hundreds of thousands of files every day, we might end up with an archive with huge number of files (many millions) which is then hard to handle (read, search) especially on Windows O/S.

Looking at the DTL, we can pretty much understand what the provided mapping from FHIR to SDA3.

But, is there any Intersystems document, where the mapping To/From FHIR is documented, at least FHIR to SDA3 ?

Hi,

I'm after feedback and comments on the sort of tools and approaches the wider InterSystems community uses for QA Testing applications written in Cache/Ensemble or IRIS.   I am aware of the %UnitTest package, and understand how that works... but:

- Do you use an alternative or framework built around this native Unit Testing tool ?

- What is your experience with %UnitTest if you use it ?

- Is there a tool you would recommend for your UI (I know this is not specifically an InterSystems' related question)

- What process do you use to routinely run tests on your application ? 

Hi everyone, 

I have just started to use JavaGateway and I didn''t encountered so much difficulties since I've got the output of the Java class I have called. 

This is the class I have implemented: 

I'm a beginner using HealthConnect.  Trying to bring in a CCD and transform it to a HL7 messages.  Is there any documentation on how to accomplish this?  thanks!

With the recent release of macOS 10.15, Apple has tightened its control mechanism , called Gatekeeper, so that it now requires executables to be notarized.  InterSystems products are not currently supported for use on macOS 10.15 and the executables have not been notarized.  (As a reminder, InterSystems products are supported on macOS as a development platform only.)

Hi,

I am sending a request message to Business Process which has one property as Dynamic Object type. So i get the JSON in my REST service and convert that as a dynamic object and set that in the request message and calling the business process from the business service. But the request is not getting sent to the Business Process. Is it possible to send dynamic object input to the business process.

Wondering if there is a limit on max number of rules you can have in a single router? For outbound ADT we are approaching 60. From performance standpoint is it worthwhile to create a new router component and the service sending the same inbound message to 2 processes?

I  am reading the following code in ObjectScript:

GitHub repository
 

And there is a sentence which I am facing difficulties to understand:

    kill ^OPNLib.Game.CWLF(..World)

I know that kill removes variables, OPNLib.Game are the package and subpackage, and ..World is a property. However what does CWLF mean?

You could think that it is the class' name, but it is:

Class OPNLib.Game.ConwayLifeGame Extends %Persistent

The class name is ConwayLifeGame

Is CWLF an alias for the class name?

If yes where is it defined?

Because if we see all the definitions in the current class, we do not found CWLF:

Hi All,

Hi,

I got the <INVALID OREF> error in the component and the error screenshot as follows:

​​​​​​

When I try to debug in the code, I go to the class and view other code in eclipse and find out the error method. How should I determine which line threw the error according to the error? There is the line number"+8" in zProcessRequest method. Is that the line counted from the method name or below? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.

Hi All!!

Get in touch for more info on Rose.Blackburn@transition-partners.co.uk

Thank you :-) 

Every developer has made the mistake of accidentally leaving temporary debug code in place when they meant to remove it after debugging is complete.  The great thing about writing in ObjectScript is that there is a way to make temporary code be truly temporary and automatically self-destruct!   This can also be done in such a way that the code has no change of making it into your source control stream, which can be helpful as well.

Hi All, I'm in the process of trying to rollout the git version control system with our current code base within Atelier.  We use Ensemble to develop interfaces but are looking to move to IRIS in the near future.  Our code is structured similar to below:

When compiling in 2018.1.2 using $system.OBJ.CompileAllNamespaces() I am seeing the following errors on some of our Record Maps.

I am using Ensemble FTP adapter to monitor file directory for files that require SFTP transfer to remote server using public/private keys for remote server authentication.

This works great in my engineering development space where file protections are loose.

I want to apply "principle of least privilege" regarding the public and private key files specified in  FTP Outbound adapter Business Operation. 

Can anyone recommend (Linux) permissions that allow Ensemble to execute the SFTP operation but minimizing access to the key files?

I've tried variouse combinations without success. 

Looking for pointers on how to create a file operation class that would use the HL7 Message Type in the file name

For example if the Message type was ADT^A31 the file name would be ZLOG_FILE_ADTA31_20190927.dat

Thank you for looking.

Is there any issue with setting the Pool Size > 1 on components using EnsLib.FTP.PassThroughOperation? I have a component that has 60,000 documents in the queue and looking for way to process this output quicker.

How do I manipulate a string in Ensemble DTL (X12 document) to extract a string starting from the right, or end, of the string?

I need to have 10 digit phone numbers, however some of the source data records include the "1" for the long distance dialing and I need to exclude this.

I have tried using Right(), SubStr(), and even SubString(string,*,-10) but it will not compile.

I find it hard to believe that Ensemble does not have the ability to read a string from the right. 

Thank you for any assistance.
