I have been trying to get to grips with the new dot Net Gateway used in IRIS as the import of the DLL to construct proxy classes is no longer supported in IRIS I have a third party DLL that when I try to instantiate throws an error complaining about the class not instantiated as it does not support parameterless constructor .I am using this new 

set gateway = $system.external.getDotNetGateway()
do gateway.addToPath(myPath_"\DotNetGatewaySamples.dll")

I would like then to instantiate my class which has a constructor that requires a parameter, how am I suppose to achieve that and if there is a

I got this error

Connection via irisconnect failed: 
Matching SSL server config not found in ssldefs.ini or registry

and I put the ssldefs.ini file on C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\InterSystems\IRIS

why I still have this error?

Hi All,

How can I customize the file path of my FTP outbound adapter.

I have a custom business operation that extends "EnsLib.FTP.InboundAdapter", in which I need to update the file path of my FTP server location.

ISCLOGs are a useful debugging tool provided with IRIS that can help you troubleshoot many different issues. For more information about creating these logs, please see the following IRIS documentation: "Logging".

This log is written to the ^ISCLOG global stored in the %SYS namespace. Each global node is a separate event, with additional information sometimes logged to the subnode.

Each entry consists of a list containing the following fields: ID, Category, LogLevel, Message, Namespace, Process ID, Routine, SessionID, Tag, and, TimeAdded. For more details about the different fields, please refer

Hello everyone

For those interested, here is an implementation example I used in one of my projects to interoperate with MongoDB using the pymongo package.

iris-mongodb

Interoperates with MongoDB (via pymongo package) with InterSystems IRIS (including outbound adapter)

Remember to import pymongo package.

implementation example for testing here

NAMESPACE> do ##class(custom.python.pymongo.test).TestMongoDBCrud()

for interoperability, use the following adapter in your business operation:

Parameter ADAPTER = "custom.python.pymongo.outboundAdapter";

Parameter INVOCATION = "Queue";

Hi - Recently I have been investigating an annoying situation whilst editing ObjectScript classes or routines in VSCode.

What was happening to me was, as I was typing in lines of code into my class (for example, adding a new Method, or changing the Class signature, or a block of code),  this would quickly get syntax checked, re-formatted, and compiled - inevitably, (since I would be mid-way through my typing), this would generate compilation errors.

Knowing that I was mid-way through adding code, I could simply dismiss this message, however, this soon got very annoying, and conditioned me to

I need read only access using a JDBC query to the tables that contain the rules data for a particular interface. I'm having difficulty locating the tables that house the rule data and I'm wondering if someone could help me with that information and any sample queries if possible.

Thanks in advance!

The question is straight forward. Is there a way to do that? I've searched docs but no result

I am building a web application that uses JWT for authentication. I would like to pass the token in cookies instead of the Authorization header.
Is there a way to intercept the request and check the token from the cookies instead of the header? I tried overriding the OnPreDispatch() method and adding it to my dispatch class, but it seems like it never gets executed, as the response returns "Unauthorized" before reaching it.

ClassMethod OnPreDispatch(pURL As%String, pMethod As%String, ByRef pContinue As%Boolean) As%Status
{
        Set token = %request.Cookies.Get("JWT-TOKEN")

In the world of APIs, REST is very extended. But what happens when you need more flexibility in your data-fetching strategies? For instance letting the client to choose what fields is going to receive. Enter GraphQL, a query language for your APIs that provides a flexible alternative to REST.

In this post, we will:

• Compare REST and GraphQL.
• Dive into the basics of GraphQL: Queries, Mutations, and HTTP.
• Build a simple GraphQL server implementation using Graphene, SQLAlchemy, and Flask over data in InterSystems IRIS.
• Explore how to deploy your GraphQL server as a WSGI application in IRIS.

By extending %XML.Adaptor, we can use

Parameter XMLIGNORENULL   

to handle empty tags in output xml file from %Persistent. But this parameter only applies to %String property. What if a class has other types of properties, like %Stream (for holding large chunk of data). What is the recommended handle if we cannot use XMLIGNORENULL here?

How would I go about getting the adapter state of this business operation? Ideally, I would like to provide the config item name to a method—in this case, 'T_SPM_SIU'—and have the method return the adapter's state, such as "Disconnected" or "Connected," along with its status.

The documentation at https://docs.intersystems.com/irisforhealthlatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.U…

Case-sensitive: variable names (other than the system variables) are case-sensitive. Names of classes and their members, names of routines and their entry points, names of include files and macros are all case sensitive.

Consider "fully qualified" class name: Package.subpackage.ClassName

What is the class name mentioned in the documentation? Package.subpackage.ClassName  or ClassName ?

It's unclear to me if in InterSystems/ObjectScript parlance class name includes also the

Hi Dev Community

I thought i would share a little method I knocked together to traverse and compare 2 JSON objects for basic equivilance.   I'm currently working on some data migration, and wanted a basic sanity check to validate that the JSON output is basically equivliant between the old and new, excluding a few things like timestamps.  

It's a basic little recurvsive method, that will bubble up any differences over a nested structure.   It's very low tech, as that's all I need it to do, but I thought it might be useful for others?

It can accept a source and target JSON object or array, and

Hi folks!

I'm building a very simple REST API.

But before testing it via a Web Server what I want to make sure that REST API methods work in principle.

Is it an easy way to "fake" the web-server request and get a result e.g. of the method with signature like that?

ClassMethod GetAllRecords(pRequest As %CSP.Request, pResponse As %CSP.Response) As %Status

e.g. calling it in Terminal?

The IKO will dynamically provision storage in the form of persistent volumes and pods will claim them via persistent volume claims.

But storage can come in different shapes and sizes. The blueprint to the details about the persistent volumes comes in the form of the storage class.

This raises the question: we've deployed the IrisCluster, and haven't specified a storage class yet. So what's going on?

You'll notice that with a simple

kubectl get storageclass

you'll find the storage classes that exist in your cluster.

Hello,

So i want to use the INSERT OR UPDATE command so i can update a COUNTER for a given name:

INSERT OR UPDATE myTable
SET name='Omer',  counter = counter + 1;

as you can see with the above code - if the row is non-existent then we get an error because COUNTER is NULL! 
I tried the following to fix this but all have failed:

INSERT OR UPDATE myTable
SET name = 'Omer', 
    counter = CASE 
        WHEN counter IS NULL THEN 1 
        ELSE counter + 1
    END

INSERT OR UPDATE myTable SET name='Omer',counter = COALESCE(counter + 1, 1)

INSERT OR UPDATE myTable SET name='Omer',counter =

InterSystems worked closely with the Red Hat Insights team to implement a curated set of recommendations for system administrators to ensure the best experience running InterSystems IRIS on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Included with all RHEL subscriptions, the Insights service proactively identifies potential issues with monitored platforms and applications running on RHEL. Through our joint collaboration, Insights now watches for common scenarios that decrease the performance of IRIS in most cases and offers an InterSystems-approved recommendation for consideration.
