Hi Developers,

Enjoy watching the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

TL;DR: This article describes an introductory-level project that exercises some string-manipulation functions in both ObjectScript and Python…with specs from a song.

Hi Developers!

Often when we develop some library, tool, package, whatever on InterSystems ObjectScript we have a question, how we deploy this package on the target machine?

Also, we often expect that some other libraries already installed, so our package depends on them, and often on some particular version of it.

When you code on javascript, python, etc the role of packages deployment with dependency management takes package manager.

So, I'm pleased to announce that InterSystems ObjectScript Package Manager available!

Hi,

when I using ObjectScript Trigger Code , I want to get whether the fields has changed by using "{fieldName*C}" , actually, fieldName in "{fieldName*C}" is a real field name ,but in my code, fieldName is a variable as follows:

I have a Zen Page with tablepane which has a datasource in a different namespace to that of the Zen Page. When the page is run, no data is returned and the tablepane is not populate, even though the rerferenced table contains dat.

The tablePane code is as follows:

Is there a way to add specific table permissions to a security role programmatically? I'm working on scripting some of the initial setup work when we sell certain add-ons to our software, and I see how I can assign resources to a role and give it a description, but I don't see how I tell it that this role gives the user, for example, SELECT privileges only on the invoices table, or SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE.

The topic of for/while loop performance in Caché ObjectScript came up in discussion recently, and I'd like to share some thoughts/best practices with the rest of the community. While this is a basic topic in itself, it's easy to overlook the performance implications of otherwise-reasonable approaches.

Hello all; I am using a one-to-many relationship. I have a Claim (one), in a relationship with Lines (many), but the Claim is storing a list of Lines IDs, rather than the Lines storing the Claim Id. This seems upside down, and not what I expected.

Hi all.

I have a scenario where I am receiving NACKs and I'd like to adjust the error handing of the operation based on the content of the NACK.

For example, I could receive the following and want to move onto the next message:

MSH| ^~\&|||||20221025083135.489+0100||ACK ^A02^ACK|9271|D|2.5.1
MSA|AE|1664378390234
ERR|||207 ^Application internal error ^HL70357^^^^^^Cannot transfer patient, encounter is cancelled.|E

However, I could also receive the following and want to keep retrying:

Good men don’t need rules.

It's not an easy task to be a master of dates and times, it is always a problem and sometimes confusing in any programming language, we are going to clarify and put a few tips to make this task as simple as possible.

With $Property is possible to dynamically get and set values on property of an instanced class and with $ClassMethod is possible to invoke methods from a class.
I would like to know: Is there an elegant way to do Write and Set dynamically on variables without using Xecute?

Hi, devs!

Consider you have an arbitrary global with an unknown amount of indexes.
