Hey Community,

Join the next InterSystems webinar "Implementing Your Data Fabric with InterSystems IRIS" on June 22 at 11:00 AM EDT to learn:

• How you can access, transform, and harmonize data from multiple sources, on demand, and make it usable and actionable for a wide variety of business applications at the convergence of transactions and analytics.
• Why leading analysts are predicting that data fabrics are the future of data management, and how a modern data platform can speed and simplify these kinds of initiatives.
• How the features and benefits in the new release of InterSystems IRIS® data platform and InterSystems IRIS for Health™ 2021.1 can help your organization.

gj :: locate was the entry from George James Software for the Developer Tools competition back in April 2021. When an ObjectScript error is reported, gj :: locate takes the .int line location and navigates you directly to the line in the source file where the error originated. Over the past few months we've found it a very useful tool when it comes to debugging, especially when used alongside the Serenji debugger in Visual Studio Code.

Our first update, version 1.1.0, now includes support for multi-root workspaces. This enables gj :: locate to be used with every workspace folder. If your VS Code workspace has more than one root level folder, connecting to different namespaces or perhaps different servers, then gj :: locate will determine which workspace folder is current and locate the source code in that folder. If your workspace doesn't have any files open then gj :: locate will prompt you to select a folder from a pick-list.

This will particularly benefit VS Code power users who have workspaces with simultaneous connections to multiple namespaces, on multiple different IRIS and Caché servers.

If you would like to try it out then you can download it from the VS Code marketplace. Or if you’re already a user, then gj :: locate will automatically update. Let us know how you're getting on with it!

Hey Developers,

We're pleased to invite you to the upcoming InterSystems webinar called "What's New in InterSystems IRIS 2021.1"!

Date: Thursday, June 17, 2021
Time: 11:00 AM EDT

In this webinar, we’ll highlight some of the new capabilities of InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health, version 2021.1:

The release of InterSystems IRIS 2021.1 introduces Adaptive Analytics. To get started with a familiar InterSystems IRIS BI sample cube, we have created a HoleFoods Sample Application for Adaptive Analytics. This Sample Application is available on Open Exchange. There is also a learning services course available to learn more about Adaptive Analytics.

We’re looking for Python developers to participate in our Embedded Python Early Access Program! If you (or someone you know) are a Python developer and are interested, please contact us via the email address below.

Hi

Hi folks!

Here is how I grant SQL access of user to a particular class/table:

GRANT SELECT, UPDATE ON Packacge_X.Table_Y TO UserZ

How can I grant SQL access of a certain user to a whole schema?

Hi all, I am new to IS Objectscript and I would appreciate some assistance regarding this.

I am trying to find out how to count the number of elements within a dynamic abstract object and I am having some trouble using the size method.

Here is the code below:

The key value pairs are originally in JSON and I would have converted it in to an object for use.

SQL, Objects, REST, and GraphQL

Introduction

We’ve already addressed the topic of why object/type representation is superior to SQL for implementing subject area models. And those conclusions and facts are as true now as they have ever been. So why should we take a step back and discuss technologies that drag abstractions back to the global level, where they had been in the pre-object and pre-type era? Why should we encourage the use of spaghetti code, which results in bugs that are hard to track down, and which relies only on virtuoso developer skills?

There are several arguments in favor of transmitting data via SQL/REST/GraphQL-based APIs as opposed to representing them as types/objects:

Hey Developers,

The InterSystems FHIR Accelerator contest is over. And now it's time to announce the winners!

Are you excited?

A storm of applause goes to these developers and their applications:

Is there a way to add/substract from a pivot variable?

I have this MDX:

SELECT
  NON EMPTY [DateOfSale].[Actual].[YearSold].&[$variable.Year] ON 0,
  NON EMPTY [Product].[P1].[Product Name].Members ON 1
FROM [HOLEFOODS]

And with pivot variable Year equal to, say, 2016 it works:

Now I want to add previous year first with one pivot variable and one explicit reference. It also works:
