Hi community,

A few weeks ago I published an API accelerator call Memoria, Is a very simple way to minimize the time and network traffic to and end-point, I hope could be useful.

I have a class with a projection that creates some persistent classes (chunks) and a non-persistent "Daemon" class that I want to have running in the background, doing some processing. The daemon needs to look at the "chunk" classes, and I want it to be simple to start the daemon -- I am currently calling the daemon's start method at the end of the CreateProjection method. When I do this, I get a <CLASS DOES NOT EXIST> error from the daemon when it tries to query against one of the chunk tables. But, if I add a "HANG 5" at the beginning of the daemon start method, this runs fine.

Hi everyone! 

We’re currently determining the passing score for this exam and expect to publish it in late March or early April. Pass / fail notification emails for beta testers will also be sent out around that time!

Barricade is a tool developed by ICCA Ops to streamline and scale support for FHIR-to-OMOP transformations for InterSystems OMOP. Our clients will be using InterSystems OMOP to transform FHIR data to this OMOP structure. As a managed service, our job is to troubleshoot any issues that come with the transformation process. Barricade is the ideal tool to aid us in this process for a variety of reasons. First, effective support demands knowledge across FHIR standards, the OHDSI OMOP model, and InterSystems-specific operational workflows—all highly specialized areas.

Hi,

I'm trying to install NodeJs (javascript runtime environment) in IRIS container so I can execute JS files?
It was easy to install it outside the container but I got the attached error when trying in the container:

Hi everyone,

I'm preparing to move to a new PC soon and I'm trying to migrate the server connections I use in IRIS Studio to the new environment.

I’ve followed without success an old procedure I've found on a post on the community that involves exporting the registry key from:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Intersystems\Cache\Servers

But I’ve realized that this only includes the entries from the Server Manager and not the actual server connections used within IRIS Studio and shown within the "Server Connections" menu.

Hi Guys,

below is a running a URL in a browser to connect and get live advertising packets data from Cassia AC server which keeps the connect live and keep going and population data. 

So now I'm doing the same in the below code but the issue I'm not getting anything and it gets stuck at Get(HttpURL) line because it hanging on that live connection I guess and not outputting, so how can I get the HTTP request to exit and get me only a snapshot of that data, maybe something like 20 sec worth of data?

My intention is to show how simple it is to generate a lookup table taking into account the information received in our HL7 messaging. The HL7 message lookup table provided by IRIS is certainly sufficient for most of the searches we want to perform, but we always have that special field in our HIS, LIS, RIS, etc. that we'd like to search by. But that's in a segment outside of that lookup table. That field forces us to generate a specific search using the expanded search criteria. We'll likely have many messages, and we'll also have to filter by date and time so we don't timeout.

Having been inspired with Shared code execution speed question/discussion, I dare to ask another one which is annoying me and my colleagues for several weeks.

We have a routine called Lib that comprises 200 $$-functions of 1500 code lines total. It was noticed that after calling _any_ function of another rather big routine (1900 functions, 32000 lines) the next call of $$someFunction^Lib(x) is getting 10-20% slower than previous call of the same function.

I am having issues trying to send SOAP requests to a Cloud Based AWS Application that lives outside of our network.

Hello, dear members of our developer community!

In today's article, we're going to take a look at one of the latest remote monitoring features that have been added to the product for our IRIS instances. I'm talking about OpenTelemetry support.

1. A Motivating Example

Embedded Python has been around for a while. You probably followed the tutorials and learned about it. However, if you've tried to combine Python and ObjectScript in real development work, you probably ran into situations where you get an error message like this:

USER>Do##class

It's a long string for limited information. All we know from this message is that a Python error occurred where (a) the error type is ZeroDivisionError; and (b)

Hi.

I want to save and compile a class in VS Code, but I get the error:

Failed to save 'Utils.cls': Unable to write file 'isfs://mip:mz/API/Utils.cls?project=MZ' (Unknown (FileSystemError): Unknown Error).

Any ideas what is wrong?

Hey everyone,

I'm diving deeper into Caché ObjectScript and would love to open a discussion around the most useful tips, tricks, and best practices you’ve learned or discovered while working with it.

Whether you're an experienced developer or just getting started, ObjectScript has its own set of quirks and powerful features—some well-documented, others hidden gems. I’m looking to compile a helpful set of ideas from the community.

If you're migrating from Oracle to InterSystems IRIS—like many of my customers—you may run into Oracle-specific SQL patterns that need translation.

Take this example:

SELECT (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - LEVEL + 1) AS gap_date
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - TO_DATE('2023-05-02','YYYY-MM-DD') + 1);

In Oracle:

• LEVEL is a pseudo-column used in hierarchical queries (CONNECT BY). It starts at 1 and increments by 1.
• CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (...)

Hello,
I have created this script that does lot of writes to a single global. DB write performance is much slower than expected (compared to another similar systems).

I have notified the following : 

• CPU usage does not reach 100% on a single core (eg: 25% of total CPU usage should be seen on a 4 cores system). Instead, much lower CPU usage is shown (with some drops to 0% from time to time). It looks like process has to wait for I/O completion before proceeding. Removing the set

I am having a hard time trying to figure out the following...

Within a DTC, I was able to take the a EnsLib.HL7.Message source and using

set$Systemset

to take the HL7 message encode it and add it to the Data Class as a string to be sent to an Operation to be sent out as a SOAP Request. 

However to make it more universal I tried doing this within a copy of EnsLib.HL7.SOAPOperation

Method SendMessage(pMsgOut 

I keep getting the following message from the SOAP response 

Hi  Guys,

I'm looking for a Zen component that allow me to populate a list of items and the ability to multiselect, similar to checklist?

I've thought of using MultiSelectSet component but don't know how can I populate it like to a query or resultset?

a short sample code would be helpful.

Thanks

Does anyone have a copy of the Class EnsLib.File.CSVService, which can import a CSV file in a Business Service?

I have created a New Database/Namespace within our TEST environment on both the Primary and Backup of the mirror. When I go to create the database/namespace on the DR node I am getting "Cannot open file '/ensemble/TEST/iris.cpf_...." while the cpf file that it references does not exist. Anyone have any clue to why this might be happening?

Hello All,

No matter what I try in Business Process Logic (BPL), I am unable to calculate the patient's age in days or years.

Has anyone ever built logic in a Business Process (BPL) to calculate a person's age in days?

Thank you!
