Is it OK to load files (UDL format in my case) using the $system.OBJ.Load() function from multiple processes ?

In other words ,is that function thread safe ?

In ObjectScript you have a wide collection of functions that return some value
typically:

set variable = $somefunction(param1,param2, ...)

There is nothing special about that.
But there is a set of functions that I classify as LEFT SIDED
The specialty of them is that you can use them also on the left of the equal operator
as a target in the SET command:

set $somefunction(param1,param2, ...) = value

Hi, I'm working on a large extraction from a database and need to parallelize the processes during the extraction.

Here's what happens:

1. The user starts the extraction from.
2. Several jobs are started using the Job <Method> instruction.

At the end, the user expects to find a document containing the results of all the extractions. What I'd like to do is start a new job that checks whether the previously started jobs have finished or are still working and consequently produce the document.

Hello everyone,

I'm working with a class generated by OpenAPI in InterSystems IRIS, specifically impl.cls. In one of the classmethods of this class, I need to switch to the %SYS namespace to access system-level functionalities and then switch back to the original namespace.

I tried using the following commands:

Is there a simple way to compare Stream data between two objects?

We have used $ZCRC to create a checksum and that seems to be work.

We have also read each line of the streams and compared them and that seems to work too.

We just think there has to be a simpler way than looping through all the lines of the stream.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have three different methods for exporting classes and projects as XML files, but each one produces slightly different output:

We've recently made available a new version of InterSystems IRIS in the Vector Search Early Access Program, featuring a new Approximate Nearest Neighbor index based upon the Hierarchical Navigable Small World (HNSW) indexing algorithm.

Hi folks!

Often, when we develop commercial solutions, there is a necessity to deploy solutions without source code, e.g., in order to preserve the IP.

One of the ways how this can be achieved is to use InterSystems Package Manager.

Here I asked Midjourney to paint an intellectual property of software:

How this can be achieved with IPM?

In fact, this is very simple; just add the Deploy="true" clause in the Resource element in your module.xml manifest. Documentation.

I decided to provide the simplest possible example to illustrate how it works and also to give you a development environment template to let start building and deploying your own modules without source code. He we go!

We have Webterminal around for quite a while, but it was limited, not all features worked there. There was no shell support or the latest feature as embedded Python support. There are some issues with tools that require programmer mode. Basic Authorization, not as handy as simple login page, where you could have options to add own login page, in case if you would wish to change the way how to login to the application, such as using SSO.

With the original iris terminal, wrapped into a web form, using most used in the web world xterm.js, used in tools like VSCode as well, with some magic from Python, which helped with interprocess tty. We can get the the terminal in the web, in the full capacity.

Hello,
Can I receive a 30 day full test license?

On 2024-08-29, the team released Language Server v2.6.0, which includes more improvements for code completion (aka intellisense). That means that #dim, while still useful, is hardly necessary anymore. That's a good thing in my opinion.

I've got a select statement bringing back one value, I want to combine all rows into one comma delimited string. So for example:

SELECT First Name

FROM mydb.People

I get a list of names:

John

Fred

Sarah

Carl

Jane

Julie

Instead of having 6 rows in the result, I want one row, with one cell that has "John,Fred,Sarah,Carl,Jane,Julie"

Is there a way to do that?

I need to execute code whenever a production component setting is updated, such as when a service port is changed and the `ens.config` table is updated. This code will handle tasks like logging these updates to a custom table for external reporting purposes.

How can I invoke custom code on these updates?

Ideally, I need to monitor all namespaces that are interoperability-enabled. Whenever a production component setting is changed in any namespace, I need to run the code.
