InterSystems ObjectScript is a scripting language to operate with data using any data model of InterSystems Data Platform (Objects, Relational, Key-Value, Document, Globals) and to develop business logic for serverside applications on InterSystems Data Platform.
This morning on the old Caché Google Group, someone posed the following question, which I've decided to answer here, because it's interesting!
Is there a way to iterate ClassMethod's params, and get param's names and values?
The first answer I can come up with is: it's not easy! In any method, you could try to write code like this (where methodName is the name of your method):
Last weekend we held the Final of InterSystems Contest on InterSystems Caché and DeepSee as a part of IT Planet Student Championship in Sochi. BTW, this year we had about 2 000 participants in InterSystems Contest.
I've been trying to write a method to compare two local variables, which may be arrays, for "equality" - that is, to see if they have all the same subscripts (if they're arrays) and values. This is the best I've come up with so far - are there any better/simpler approaches out there?
If I were trying to access an index of a global variable, what time complexity would this operation have? My understanding of languages like Java/C++ is that arrays are stored as blocks of memory so that x[15] would have a lookup time complexity of O(1) because it just goes to (address of the array + 15) and retrieves the value stored there.
How does this work in Cache where the index of a variable isn't necessarily an integer value? If I were to have a variable like the following:
Are there any tools to check the code coverage and to do a lint check for cache object script? Developers will be working with HealthConnect (IRIS based)

Does anyone know of a library that can be used to create Mock objects for Objectscript classes?
Right now, my team has been building mock objects by hand to help circumvent dependencies when writing and executing unit tests, but I always wondered if someone had ever created a Mock library like Mockito to help quicken the process.
For my recent tutorial, I used %Query Wizard of Studio.
Could any of the VSCode experts please show me how to generate
Query Statement with input parameters, CONTAINID , ROWSPEC and the required class methods - <queryname>Execute() - <queryname>Fetch() - <queryname>Close()
If a have a string " Happy new year " and I want to trim (remove blank spaces from the begin and the end, not other places into the string), what is the object script function to get "Happy new year"?
We have a couple of systems that send us a URL link to a PDF instead of base 64 encoding it in the HL7 message. Has anyone ever tired to take that URL, and retrieve the file off of the server to save it off somewhere?
I'm curious if it is possible to change the class method to another class?
I call a method of a system class to generate another class. But there is a bug/feature in a library class, so I need to tweak a bit the generated method, e.g. add additional parameter and change the line to "if" the parameter.
I hope to do this programmatically after class generation and change the code in a way I like.
It is my understanding that when a routine accesses a global it is temporarily stored in global memory. While the global is within global memory, any other routine would be able to readily access the global from memory and not from disk so long as the same node is being utilized.
Say I have two horologs or timestamps, how can I compare them? I know that just time1 > time2 doesn't work because it will compare them as strings which is not correct.
Is there any ObjectScript or a basic function that takes a string and separates it into words + punctuation/spaces array/list? Just not to reinvent the wheel. Say, process "It is a test, after all" into "It", space, "is", space, "a", space, "test", ", ", "after", space, "all". Or something to that effect.
I was wondering if anyone had come across a way of reformatting ObjectScript within VSCode.
I have the various Intersystems Extensions installed (InterSystems Language Pack, InterSystems ObjectScript, InterSystems ObjectScript Extension Pack, InterSystems Server Manager) but a formatter does not seem to be something included within this variety of extensions.
