#InterSystems IRIS

Class Queries in InterSystems IRIS (and Cache, Ensemble, HealthShare) is a useful tool that separates SQL queries from Object Script code. Basically, it works like this: suppose that you want to use the same SQL query with different arguments in several different places.In this case you can avoid code duplication by declaring the query body as a class query and then calling this query by name.

Some of you on the Developer Community have probably interacted with @Luca Ravazzolo if you are interested in cloud and container topics... If so, you'll enjoy Episode 2 of our new podcast — we chatted with Luca about Kubernetes and the InterSystems Kubernetes Operator. He does a great job of explaining the technology and its benefits here!

Hi Community,

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

This is more a WARNING than a question

Dasha.AI is a platform that allows you to create and manage voice interfaces for your applications. One of Dasha’s distinctive features is that most users believe they are talking to a human, not a robot.

Voice is the most natural way for people to interact. Dasha allows to use voice interface to interact with your application as naturally as communication between people.   

The voice interface cannot completely replace the traditional user interface of the application, but some tasks could be perfectly solved with the help of the speech interface.

You may have seen earlier this week that we launched a brand-new learning podcast called Data Points! There are three episodes released, one of which was a really interesting discussion with Thomas Dyar — a product specialist here at InterSystems focused on machine learning. Take a listen and reach out if you're interested in exploring more about IntegratedML!

Preview releases are now available for the 2020.1 version of InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health!

 Kits and Container images are available via the WRC's preview download site.

The build number for these releases is 2020.1.0.199.0.  (Note: first release was build 197, updated to 199 on 2/12/20)

 InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2020.

Hi Community!

As you know we launched the InterSystems Open Exchange — the marketplace for solutions and tools on InterSystems Data Platforms!

But how to publish your application on OE?

Before we start, let me answer the few basic questions.

Hello,

We would like some help:

We have found that in the following code:

Class Operaciones.SOAP.Gasometros.GestionPacientes.SeleneHL7Service Extends Ens.BusinessOperation [ ProcedureBlock ]
{

Method operacion(pRequest As Mensajes.Request.GestionPacientes.operacionRequest, Output pResponse As Mensajes.Response.GestionPacientes.operacionResponse) As %Library.Status
{
 Set .Adapter.WebServiceClientClass = "WSCLIENTE.GestionPacientes.ConsultaCandidatos"
 Set MSH=pRequest.MSH,SFT=pRequest.SFT,QPD=pRequest.QPD,DSC=pRequest.DSC
 Set tSC = .Adapter.InvokeMethod("operacion",,.MSH,.SFT,.

Is possible config a docker-compose.yml to start arbiter-2019.4.0.383.0-docker.tar alone ? 

What parameter you need ?

i can't find a simple sample

I've recently encountered a HS Caché that won't start informing that Collation 30 is not available, but I have not found an easy way of knowing what collation is 30.

I've found that the following command returns the ones from the current locale, but not from all locales:

Set Rset = ##class(%ResultSet).%New("%Library.Collate:CollationList")

d Rset.Execute()

While (Rset.Next()) {zw Rset.Number_": "_Rset.Name}

Thank you

I'm not sure what the purpose of this is, but the Management Console causes the browser to refresh periodically. If you're in a form or an editor such as the DTL or Routing Rule editors, you may lose work unless you save frequently. This did not occur in Caché 2018 and earlier releases.

I've had a couple of incidents where I've created a number of rules in the DTL editor, answered the phone or stepped away for a few minutes, then come back to find any work since the last save erased.

I've noticed this in both 2019 and 2020 releases of IRIS.

Heads up!

InterSystems has corrected a defect that can result in skipping a transaction rollback. This can only occur after activation or addition of a mirrored database on a primary mirror member.

This problem exists for:

• Caché and Ensemble 2018.1.3
• InterSystems IRIS data platform 2019.1.1, 2019.3, and 2019.4
• InterSystems IRIS for Health 2019.1.1, 2019.3, and 2019.4
• HealthShare Health Connect 2019.1.1

The conditions necessary for this defect to be triggered are quite specific. All of the following must apply:

• A database has been newly activated or added to a mirror on a primary mirror member.

will InterSystems fix the Transaction-Handling for  the  .Net Connection Provider?

Nor the  Property IsTransactionAcvtive nor TransactionLevel is set on the  Connection  when using BeginTransaction.

Latest PreView will give me   problem as InterSystems removed removed the TStart() Option to create the Transaction that way which gave back a TransactionObject whith working versions...

I'm looking into finding ways to  fetch data from cache efficiently and work with it with python - specially pandas.

i tried the following but i'm wondering if this is the most efficient way?

to run the stored procedure as %ResultSet inside cache in a classmethod and serialize the data to JSON

and then call that class method from python

 Class User.RegObj Extends %RegisteredObject
{ ClassMethod runAlpha() As %Library.DynamicAbstractObject
{
set QHi=##class(%DynamicAbstractObject).%FromJSON("{}") set rs=##class(%ResultSet).%New("User.Person:alpha")
set pr=rs.Execute("","") set idx=0 
while rs.

Hello Community,

Thank you all for your continued feedback and support of our ad hoc reporting platform, VDM.  There's been some questions around setting up a non-ODBC connection for InterSystems platforms.  We published a new YouTube video showing the steps necessary to connect to InterSystems Caché and InterSystems IRIS with BridgeWorks VDM. 

When do implicit assumptions in code and arithmetic operators pose a real danger, and how can this danger be overcome?

Constantinople in the 5th century AD

(It was possible for people to build grandiose buildings and vehicles without the use of computers and robots 1,600 years ago.)

If you assign dimensionless numbers to physical parameters in your code, you risk misunderstandings and errors when calculating and converting between units of measurement.

Hi Community,

⏯ What Keeps Developers Up at Nigh

Hi,

I have two namespaces

1. In the first one, I have defined a class which Extends (%Persistent, Ens.Util.MessageBodyMethods), we'll call it NSOne.Msg.Req
2. In the second namespace NSTwo, I want to use the previous class with something like SET pInput = ##class(NSOne.Msg.Req).%New()

I mapped the NSOne.Msg.Req package in namespace NSOne. In Atelier, I can see NSOne.Msg.Req in my NSOne. But, when I try to execute line 2 above, it tells me :

{
    "status": {
        "errors": [
            {
                "error": "ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PROTECT>^NStwo.Api.

Hi,

we're planning some work on our SQL Query Plan functionality for a future release of InterSystems IRIS and are interested to hear how you're using them today, or what'd keep you from using them. Rather than try and fit everything in a rigid survey, I thought a simple thread on our beloved DC might also reveal some use patterns that we support or could do a better job on. 

Hi All -   I want to share with the community a project I recently posted in OpenExchange, that extends on the Business Activity Monitoring features available with InterSystems IRIS’s integration  framework. I have called this REST Business Activity Monitoring, and is implemented via a set of zaux.rBAM.* classes.

DeepSeeButtons is available on Open Exchange! This tool will generate a diagnostic report of your DeepSee environment.

The report consists of multiple sections. These sections range from System Details to Caché/InterSystems IRIS logs to Cube information. In addition to simply providing information about the environment, some common recommended configurations are checked. If a recommended configuration is not used, an alert is displayed highlighting that the environment configuration does not match the recommended configuration.

Hi,

On a persistent class, I have defined an %OnNew method that validate some properties with appropriate status code for each kind of error. Question is: how do you catch the specific error when %New is called on this class?

Surrounding %New method with a try-catch not seems to work.

Thanks

I'm trying to tie IRIS (2019.1) into our Concord Fax cloud-based email-to-fax workflow. We have some sites that require a fax be sent to multiple locations based upon certain data (ie Radiology and Emergency departments). Unfortunately, CC-ing does not work with Concord Fax so I need a way to send the email, change the recipient, and then send it again if certain criteria are met. Is this possible? Do I need to duplicate and rename the method, calling the second one in the MessageMap?

Hi Community!

New "Coding Talk" video is already on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

⏯ How to Install and Use ObjectScript Package Manager with InterSystems IRIS

I have a large amount of classes in several XML namespaces.

Is there a way to generate all XSDs automatically?

I've read the docs but it seems like it's a manual class-by-class process.

Intro

For many in today's interoperability landscape, REST reigns supreme. With the overabundance of tools and approaches to REST API development, what tools do you choose and what do you need to plan for before writing any code? This article focuses on design patterns and considerations that allow you to build highly robust, adaptive, and consistent REST APIs. Viable approaches to challenges of CORS support and authentication management will be discussed, along with various tips and tricks and best tools for all stages of REST API development. Learn about the open-source REST APIs available for InterSystems IRIS Data Platform and how they tackle the challenge of ever-increasing API complexity. The article is a write-up for a recent webinar on the same topic.
