I have a class that extends %CSP.REST which made I deployed using $system.OBJ.MakeClassDeployed. After upgrading IRIS, the web app which uses that class no longer works with an ObjectScript error.

In the past, I fixed that problem by adding a dummy new line or a comment then recompiled that class. For this deployed class, I can't add a new line and recompile the class (the code shows up as locked in Studio). Simply running $system.OBJ.compile() is not fixing the web app issue.

Is there a way to edit a deployed class then recompile it?

Hello Community,

When I compile the Sample.User class for the first time, and include an ObjectGenerator method intended to run certain logic during each compilation, it throws a <CLASS DOES NOT EXIST> error. However, recompiling the same class works as expected.

I understand this happens because the class hasn’t been fully compiled yet during the first pass. To overcome this issue, are there any specific callback methods available that can safely be used after the class is fully compiled?

If you have already built unit tests using the %UnitTest framework, or are thinking about doing so, please take a look at InterSystems Testing Manager.

Without leaving VS Code you can now browse your unit tests, run or debug them, and view previous run results.

InterSystems Testing Manager works with both of the source code location paradigms supported by the ObjectScript extension.Your unit test classes can either be mastered in VS Code's local filesystem (the 'client-side editing' paradigm) or in a server namespace ('server-side editing').

Hi,

I have the following transform working but i also want to add another string of text for it to look for but i'm unsure of how to write this in. The two bits of text are "NOT DECTECTED" and "Negative"

Hi 

How can I set a default value in a dataCombo?

I  tried 
ClientMethod onloadHandler() [ Language = javascript ]
{

 zenPage.getComponentById('mycombo').setProperty('selectedIndex',0);

 //zenSetProp('mycombo','selectedIndex',0);

}

and didn't work, I can not use the value property because I don't know what the values in my combo are going to because they loaded OnCreateResultSet,  I'm only looking to make always the first value selected by default 

Thanks

To better understand Streams in IRIS I'll start with a short

History

In the beginning (before IRIS), there was just basic access to external devices.
The 4 commands OPEN, CLOSE, READ, WRITE still work and are documented 
by  Introduction to I/O in detail.
Especially for files, this is a direct access to your actual file system.
You have to take care of any status or other signal in your code.  
Also, any code conversion or similar is up to you. 

Class %Library.File aka %File offers a large collection of methods and queries 
for standard operations on directories and files.
READ, WRITE is there but the

Hi all,

It's me again 😁. In the pervious article Writing a REST api service for exporting the generated FHIR bundle in JSON, we actually generated a resource DocumentReference, with the content data encoded in Base64

Question!! Is it possible to write a REST service for decoding it? Because I am very curious what is the message data talking about🤔🤔🤔

OK, Let's start!

1. Create a new utility class datagen.utli.decodefhirjson.cls for decoding the data inside the DocumentReference
 

Class datagen.utli.decodefhirjson Extends%RegisteredObject
{
}

2. Write a Python function decodebase64docref to 
a.

I am trying to add Plotly Bar graph in a div to a CSPpage. I am working in IRIS 2022.1. I created persistent class.

I copied relevant code into github repo:

oliverwilms/iris-python-plotly
 

iris-python-plotly/csp/otwPlotly.csp at master · oliverwilms/iris-python-plotly
 

Set tPlotlyDiv = ##class(dc.python.test).PlotlyDiv(trnYear,trnMonth)

ClassMethod PlotlyDiv(pTrnYear = 2025, pTrnMonth = 8) As %String
{
    Set importlib = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("importlib")
    Set plotdiv = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("plotdiv")
    Do importlib.reload(plotdiv)
    Set div = plotdiv.gendiv(pTrnYear,pTrnMonth)
  

Technical Documentation — Quarkus IRIS Monitor System

1. Purpose and Scope

This module enables integration between Quarkus-based Java applications and InterSystems IRIS’s native performance monitoring capabilities.
It allows a developer to annotate methods with @PerfmonReport, which triggers IRIS’s ^PERFMON routines automatically around method execution, generating performance reports without manual intervention.

2. System Components

2.1 Annotation: @PerfmonReport

• Defined as a CDI InterceptorBinding.
• Can be applied to methods or classes.
• Directs the framework to wrap method execution with IRIS

In my previous article, Using LIKE with Variables and Patterns in SQL, we explored how the LIKE predicate behaves in different scenarios, from Embedded SQL to Dynamic SQL, and what happens to performance when wildcards and variables come into play. That piece was about getting comfortable writing a working LIKE query. But writing SQL that works is only the starting point. To build applications that are reliable, scalable, and secure, you need to understand the best practices that underpin all SQL, including queries that use LIKE.

This article takes the next step. We’ll look at a few key points to help strengthen your SQL code, avoid common pitfalls, and make sure your SELECT statements run not just correctly, but also efficiently and safely. I'll use SELECT statements with LIKE predicate as an example along the way, showing how these broader principles directly affect your queries and their results.

The built-in %JSONExport() fails with circular references in deeply nested objects. How can I write a custom serializer that supports circular detection and reference tracking?

This anthropic article made me think of several InterSystems presentations and articles on the topic of data quality for AI applications. InterSystems is right that data quality is crucial for AI, but I imagined there would be room for small errors, but this study suggests otherwise. That small errors can lead to big hallucinations. What do you think of this? And how can InterSystems technology help?

The ObjectScript language has incredible JSON support through classes like %DynamicObject and %JSON.Adaptor.This support is due to the JSON format's immense popularity over the previous dominance of XML.JSON brought less verbosity to data representation and increased readability for humans who needed to interpret JSON content.To further reduce verbosity and increase readability, the YAML format was created.The very easy-to-read YAML format quickly became the most popular format for representing configurations and parameterizations, due to its readability and minimal verbosity.
