Hi Community,

Please welcome the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

for debugging purposes of complex applications.

I have run into two annoyances when using VS Code for server-side editing of Objectscript and was wondering if anyone knows of any solutions or workarounds.

1. In .mac routine files, class names that aren't fully qualified (e.g. ##class(example) instead of ##class(Package.example)) fail to be understood, so the class will have a red squiggly underneath it and a problem that reads

"Class 'example' does not exist. InterSystems Language Server".

In an old routine full of unqualified class names, it just fills the problems tab and drowns out the actual issues.

I cannot convert the R4 version of the JSON file through the built-in dtl, and convert it to SDA, I hope to get an answer, thank you very much

Hi Developers!  Let me share with you some exercises from a workshop about developing interoperability components in Java using PEX (Production EXtension).

You will find slides and step by step exercises about:

• Understanding simple PEX components coded in Java.
• Making some changes on them.

All built using containers, so you don't need to build a local Java environment.

You can reach the repository here: https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/workshop-pex

It's a challenge when you need, as a software architect, design a corporate architecture to meet the current business requirements, you need achieve level 5. With InterSystems IRIS.
it's possible. With 1 product you get SQL + NoSQL + ESB + BI + Open Analytics + Real time virtual cubes + NLP + AutoML + ML (with Python) and Advanced cloud + Sharding support.

With Oracle, for example, you need Oracle DB + Oracle NoSQL + Oracle BI + Oracle SOA Suite + Some Oracle add-ons like Oracle R, Partitioning and RAC and some Oracle cloud products to NLP and AI features.For IBM we have a similar scenario.

Hello,

I am trying to use the ./irisstart command in Red Hat, but it returns an error "Invalid registry ownership". The same error appears when i try ./irisstop and ./irisforce

Has anyone seen these before?

Hey I am very new to Intersystems Objectscript and I am trying to find a way of extract 4 digit numbers from a stream.

I have a stream full of results 

2334

3434

5543

4334

And I am trying to remove each 4 digit grouping from the stream.

I have tried the following for loop 

for i=1:1:$length(result) {

set curr = $extract(result, i)

write !, curr

set count(curr) = $get(count(curr)) + 1

}

Unfortunately the loop extracts one digit.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this ?

 I'm trying to set up VS Code for ObjectScript using the instructions found here. I've got both Cache 2018.1.2.309.0 and IRIS 2020.1.0.215.0.When I try to connect to either one of them the connection fails, and I get a notification in the bottom right corner that says "Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0".I've checked the JSON settings file that VS Code uses, and they're fine and formatted properly.All of the settings I've entered are correct.I suspect that there's a response coming back from the server that VS Code is expecting to be JSON, but isn't.

At the heart of IRIS and Cache is a very interesting database architecture that we, at M/Gateway Developments, refer to as "Global Storage".  If you ever wanted to know more about the fundamentals and capabilities of this underlying database, you might want to read a major analysis we've put together:

https://github.com/robtweed/global_storage

Amongst other things you'll discover that:

- Global Storage provides the underpinnings of a full multi-model database, something we refer to as "Universal NoSQL", though, as you already know from IRIS and Cache, it also supports relational too.

- Global

Hello,

I was wondering if InterSystems has support for the following standards built into IRIS or Health Connect / Ensemble:

1.        Healthcare FHIR(Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resource) Protocol

2.        Enterprise Resource Planning OAGIS (Open Applications Group Integration Specification) Protocol / Supply Chain Management GS1-EPCIS (Electronic Product Code Information Services)

3.        Education, Certification, Credentials FERPA CEDS (Common Education Data Standards) Protocol

Hello everyone,

I have a question, I am trying to use xecute command, but something wrong happen when i was using the command, and i don't know why hahahaha.
I created a file .mac with this code:

label(test) public{
       set routine="variable"
       set call="write routine,!"
       xecute call
       quit
}

But when i run the command, show me this message error:

<UNDEFINED>label+3^tstFJR3 *routine

After that i changed the code to:

label(test)
      set routine="variable"
      set call="write routine,!"
      xecute call
      quit

This solved the problem to me, and writed this content:

Java Business Host is now retired

With the release of PEX in InterSystems IRIS 2020.1 and InterSystems IRIS for Health 2020.1, customers have a better way to build Java into productions than the Java Business Host. PEX provides a complete set of APIs for building interoperability components and is available in both Java and .NET.

The Java Business Host has been removed from InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health as of their 2020.4 releases.  Customers using the Java Business Host are encouraged to migrate to PEX.

Advantages of PEX

• Allows developers to create any Production

Hey Developers,

Enjoy watching this new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

⏯ Demo of REST APIs defined in Swagger, built with InterSystems IRIS interfacing with a SQL backend

Let's imagine if you would like to write some real web application, for instance, some simple clone of medium.com. Such sort of application can be written using any different language on the backend side, or with any framework on the frontend side. So many ways to do the same application, and you can look at this project. Which offers a bunch of frontends and backends realizations for exactly the same application. And you can easily mix them, any chosen frontend should work with any backend.

Let me introduce the same application realization for InterSystems IRIS on a backend side.

Hello there developers,

As I started to install the IRIS for community editing I came across this interface. (Image attached below)

Is there a major difference in these 2 types of installations and is there a place where I can refer with regard to this in detail please? 

Please let me know. 

Thank you in advance. 

Hello Community,

On the installation process of the IRIS Community Edition I came across an interface as below (image attached.)

I would like to know what it means, what is the use of it, what it is and where can i know more on this? 

I tried the documentation page but was not successful in finding anything regarding it. 

I would like to know more on it please. 

Hoping to hear soon. 

Regards. 

We use the Category drop-down for other IT analysts to quickly see interfaces related to their application/group.  This drop0down fails to work (IDs get out of sync with Config Item IDs) if the Production is compiled.    There is no fix available (development was started, but stopped in favor of other items).

Has anyone else run into this issue?  Any custom work-arounds?

Example:

Thanks.

Hi Community,

We're pleased to invite you to the upcoming webinar in Spanish called "Learning ObjectScript from scratch"!

Date & Time: May 25, 4:00 PM (CEST)

Speaker: @David Reche, Manager of the Dev Community in Spanish

The webinar is aimed at:

Images for other languages are often build using multistage build process.

What about InterSystems IRIS?

Consider this Dockerfile:

FROM irishealth-community:2020.4.0.524.0 AS builder

# Load code into USER and compile
# Adjust settings, etc.

FROM irishealth-community:2020.4.0.524.0

# replace in standard kit with what we modified in first stage

COPY --from=builder /usr/irissys/iris.cpf /usr/irissys/.
COPY --from=builder /usr/irissys/mgr/IRIS.DAT /usr/irissys/mgr/.
COPY --from=builder /usr/irissys/mgr/user/IRIS.DAT /usr/irissys/mgr/user/.

The advantage of this approach is the image size.
The disadvantage is that on a final stage developer must know/remember all the modified places in the builder image.
But otherwise is this approach OK for InterSystems IRIS?
Have anyone tried to build IRIS images this way?

In this article we are going to show the results of the comparision between IRIS and Postgress when handling Astronomy data.

Introduction

Since the earliest days of human civilization we have been fascinated by the sky at night. There are so many stars! Everybody has dreamed about them and fantasized about life in other planets.

Astronomers have been identifying and classifying stars since many centuries ago.There are star catalogues compiled in Mesopotamia and Egypt from the 2nd millennium BC [1].In modern times there have been two main catalogues: Hipparcos [2] and Gaia [3].
