#InterSystems IRIS

No reason apparently,

to many times executed :

[Database.SparseDBExpansion] Expanding capacity of sparse database /usr/irissys/mgr/iristemp/ by 1000 MB.

no details on audits, no traffic for that, no process to justify this, some ideas ?

IRIS for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86-64) 2020.1 (Build 215U) Mon Mar 30 2020 20:23:13 EDT

From where I can download the latest version of IRIS.

Hello everyone,
It is my first post in the community. Very recently I started working using IRIS, creating services with Cache.
Today they gave me a new task and I'm really lost.

How can I use an oracle database to create services using iris?

Throughout the day I was looking for a guide to use a remote Oracle database. but unfortunately I only managed the connection in SQL Gateway

I have seen the Cache Python binding documentation and would like to know if it's also possible with IRIS so I can write data and also read/get it from the DB? The cachesys folder does not contain any python libraries.

   try{
        ....
        ....
        ....

        Set tSC = method_invocation()

        If $$$ISERR(tSC) {
            Quit tSC
        }

        ....
        ....
        ....

}

On compiling the above, I get an error saying "QUIT argument not allowed : 'tSC' ".

Hi Developers!

A question to those who use VSCode to code InterSystems ObjectScript.

Suppose you have the ObjectScript code on IRIS server and you want to export it into the desired folder.

And you have VSCode connected to the server.

What is the way to tell VSCode that I want to export classes into some particular folder in /package/class.cls way?

E.g. into:

/project_folder/src/cls/Package/class.cls

and project_folder is opened in VSCode as the folder of the project.

I have defined a class with a dynamic object property:

Class test.Dyn Extends %Persistent
{

Property json As %DynamicObject;

/// do ##class(test.Dyn).test()
ClassMethod test()
{
  do ..%KillExtent()
  for len = 100, $$$MaxStringLength - 1, $$$MaxStringLength, $$$MaxStringLength+1, $$$MaxStringLength *2 {
    set sc = ..save(len)
    write "Len: ",len, " Result: ",$case($$$ISERR(sc), $$$YES: $System.Status.GetErrorText(sc), : "OK"),!
  }
}

ClassMethod save(len)
{
  set json = {}
  set stream = ..getStream(len-8) // -8 because {"a":""}
  do json.%Set("a", stream, "stream")
 
  set obj = ..%New()
  set obj.json = json
  quit obj.%Save()
}

ClassMethod getStream(len)
{
  set stream = ##class(%Stream.TmpCharacter).%New()
 
  if len<$$$MaxStringLength {
    do stream.Write($tr($j("",len)," ","A"))
  } else {
    for i=1:$$$MaxStringLength:len {
      do stream.Write($tr($j("",$$$MaxStringLength)," ","A"))
    }
    do stream.Write($tr($j("",len-i)," ","A"))
  }
  quit stream
}
}

The issue I encounter is that if a length of a serialized json property is more than 3641144 symbols, the object fails to save with the following error (either MAXSTRING or STRINGSTACK):

Length: 100 Result: OK
Length: 3641143 Result: OK
Length: 3641144 Result: OK
Length: 3641145 Result: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <MAXSTRING>%GetSerial+1^%Library.DynamicAbstractObject.1
Length: 7282288 Result: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <STRINGSTACK>%GetSerial+1^%Library.DynamicAbstractObject.1

Is there a workaround? I need to store moderately large jsons (10-15 Mb) and dynamic object properties allow for a very convenient access.

$ZSTORAGE is set to -1.

I need to convert a JSON payload to a custom object type. Currently, I'm converting the JSON object to a %Library.DynamicObject object and need to proceed from here.

As of now, these are my options

1. Using an external library talked about in this link:

Hey ISC Community!

For a small automation feature I would like to login to the IRIS shell non-interactively, skipping the whole username and password prompts, providing the credentials through other means. Something in the fashion of "iris session <instance-name> --user myuser --pass mypass" would be great, but the session tool itself doesn't seem to be capable of doing this.

Hi Team,

Can you please help with this error as below :

Hello,

Recently I have been required to work with a method called ExportToStream.

The situation asks me to export a UTF-8-encoded JSON as a XML to be imported on old releases. Here's how I attempted to fulfill this request:

Hi!

Is there a method in a persistent class that can return the current number of records/persistent objects in it?

Pyodbc supports calling stored procedure , but if the IRIS Stored Procedure ROWSPEC has a column with datatype specified as %Date or %Time, Pyodbc fails to fetch it and throws this error.

"

pyodbc.Error: (' 2201', '[ 2201] [Cache ODBC][State : 22018 ][Native Code 22005]\r\nERROR #388: Unknown error, code 22005 (22005) (SQLGetData)')

"

on printing the cursor execute description, pyodbc reads the column as <int>.

How use column (auto_increment)?
