#ObjectScript

I successfully got everything in this guide to work:  https://community.intersystems.com/post/ensemble-rabbitmq-java-client-q…

I am now using the information I gained from this guide along side with this guide:

https://www.rabbitmq.com/tutorials/tutorial-one-spring-amqp.html

I am running into an issue though. In the RabbitMQ guide I just posted, they have a "Receive message" functionality. I use that alongside with the SendMsg from Ensemble method in the InterSystems guide.

I know it's late, but I really love the advent of code theme each year to find some project ideas to go out and code something and push myself.

I had the intentions of completing the AOC 2018 before the new year, but I've got 2 young kids (1yo and 4yo), so most nights I just want to sleep.

I've been looking at this on my half hourly commute each day before and after work.

So whilst doing this, I found not many people had posted what they had done and in previous years.

ˮ This is one of my articles which was never published in English. Let's fix it!

Hello! This article is about quite a practical way of developing InterSystems solutions without using the integrated tools like Studio or Atelier. All the code of the project can be stored in the form of "traditional" source code files, edited in your favorite development environment (for example, Visual Studio Code), indexed by any version control system and arbitrarily combined with many external tools for code analysis, preprocessing, packaging and so on.

I have a problem,ExtentSize,Selectivity etc is stored in class definition.

I have multiple namespaces with globals maped and only one class definition for All, for example Orders.

Order definition is only one,mapped to main namespace,but in different namespaces have different ExtentSize etc.

I am taking over a production system that had some HSLIB and other database routine and class files modified. However, I do not know what was modified .

I developed a routine that allows me to load each database in our production instance and compare it against a default instance using the SIZE attribute. This allowed me to generate a list of files where the .INT file size in production does not match the file size in the default instance. However, doing a spot check of the .cls or .mac files indicates that in some cases these files are identical, just the intermediate files are different.

Hello Gentlemen,

As you can read on the title, my question is to know how to retranslate the hl7 message into a string and so to remove the '\E' that are inside. A example/picture worth more than a thousand word.
OBX|1|RP|ECG||CARDIO ECG^APPLICATION^PDF^^\E\\E\sitehopital.org\E\files\E\cardio\E\022018\E\GE274583.PDF|

As you can see, the escape character \E is used by hl7 message in the purpose to authorize a character '\' just but I don't want it in my program... Is there any function that retranslates this format into a "normal" format?

Faithfully,

Thomas

I'm getting this compilation error:

Kompilieren der Klasse digi.packet
FEHLER #5002: Caché-Fehler: <FUNCTION>zLockUse+5^%ExtentMgr.GlobalRegistry.1
  > FEHLER #5030: Während der Kompilierung von Klasse 'digi.packet' ist ein Fehler aufgetreten

when importing one of my classes on the production server into one particular namespace:

• the class compiles just fine on dev pc.
• the class compiles just fine also in any other namespace of the same cache instance. So, looks as a problem of this particular namespace.

In my routine when I call set filestream.FileName = filename, I get an error

"cn_iptcp://localhost:56773/USER/%Stream.FileBinary.1.INT" does not exist on the Server

I successfully instantiate the %Stream.FileCharacter object. 'filestream' value is '1@%Stream.FileCharacter'. But when I debug the code, the step where I try to set the file name fails. 

The port number for local host looks good for my current instance. I have tried a few variations, such as using the method FileNameSet(). But this did not work either. 

My routine exists in the USER namespace, as indicated in the error.

Hello gentlemen,

I'm wondering how to get the specific HL7 message structur by coding in ObjectScript. I'm explaining myself, when you receive a hl7 message, you have to set its DocType to be able to read it conveniently. For example, an ADT_A15 (2.3.1) must have the docType of an ADT_A09 (2.3.1) to be well read. So you have 2 possibilities to know that, either you go in the documentation to see which structur to set in but I don't think it's generic.

I am new to Intersystems Cache, so please bear with me. We are using HealthShare 2013.1. 

I have a routine to compare databases from separate instances where I want to ignore values that begin with %sqlcq. I thought this would be easy with pattern matching operator '?' but it is proving difficult and it seems to be because of the percent character. 

For example:

set x = "%sqlcq.something.value.foo"

#;does not evaluate as true. 
if x?1P1"sqlcq" {write "valid"}

set y="sqlcq.something.value.bar"

if y?1"sqlcq".E {write "valid"}
valid
if x?1"sqlcq".

Our PAS system supplies date in a particular date format (ISO 8601 compliant) that includes seconds and milliseconds.  Because many downstream systems cannot handle milliseconds (and some don't even want seconds) many transformations are required to truncate the data.

What immediately sprang to my mind was to look for a setting on the operation to modify outbound datetime fields - obviously there isn't one, thus the need for this question.

The Caché / Ensemble standard distribution contains in namespace SAMPLES
a nice example of a CSP page consuming WebService as a Client.
I have modified it not only to display the replies but to feed them back into a Global.
I used the classic Hyperevent to achieve this. The replies end up as a log in global^WSREPLY.
When there is no input anymore the page closes and goes away.

There are 2 versions with visible and hidden display during operation.
dc.WSCSP.reverseVerbose.cls and dc.WSCSP.reverseHidden.cls

The message to send is simply passed as a hash after the CSP_URL. (Mind URL encoding!

Our development server is set up to automatically keep the .INT code of compiled classes and routines, but the live servers are set to not keep the .INT code.

I know how to set the system to keep this code ($SYSTEM.OBJ.SetQualifiers() ?)  but what are the ramifications of keeping this code on the live servers?  Is it just a space issue?  I always thought it was to keep the code more private.

Hi,

I'm writing to an ODBC connection to a SQLserver database, and I seem to be sending the wrong data type to a date colum?

set tSC = ..Adapter.ExecuteUpdate(.intRows,sqlInsert,$ZDATETIME($NOW(),3,2), pRequest.ComposerName, [...])

I think  `$ZDATETIME($NOW(),3,2)` is ODBC datetime format: 

https://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=RCOS_fzdatetime#RCOS_fzdatetime_tformat

Do I have it wrong?

Today in docs I found this example using NULL:

 WRITE $LISTVALID($LB(NULL)),!

simplified

zzdump $LB(NULL)

and NULL can be case-insensitive:

zzdump $LB(null)

seems the same as just:

zzdump $LB()

But if null variable is defined then list would contain value from variable. Case sensitive in that situation.

Does anyone have any Idea what is this? Is NULL used anywhere besides as a list element?

Recently I needed a classmethod that returns annotation value based on a name of a activity.

As doing it at runtime seemed inefficient, I wrote compile-time utility that iterates over all business process activities and generates relevant code.

This code could be used in a variety of situations when you need to iterate over business process activities, just add it as a secondary superclass to your BPL processes.

Let Say I have 
Class Carrier Extends %Persistent

Property Employee As Array of Class Employees

Class Employees Extends %SerialObject

Property Name As %String

Property Address As Array of Class AddressDetail

Class AddressDetail Extends %SerialObject

Property Street1 As %String

Property Street2 As %String

I can get value for Employee Name  as Employee_Name.

But I want to Get Value of Address Street1 and Street2 of Class AddressDetail using SQL Query
How can I get that?

The class method "test" in the following code snippet sends an HTML email with an embedded image. Edit the literal strings to change the embedded image, to address, from address, subject, and body of the email.

Class objectscript.sendEmailWithImage Extends %RegisteredObject
{
	classmethod test() {
		S SmtpServer = ""
		S SmtpUserName = ""
		S SmtpPassword = ""
  
		S imgPath="C:\test.jpg"
		 
		set s=##class(%Net.SMTP).%New()
		set s.smtpserver=SmtpServer
		set auth=##class(%Net.Authenticator).%New() ; use default authentication list
		set auth.UserName=SmtpUserName
		set auth.

I need to automate the handling of usernames passwords, serverNames etc for use in the sending and receiving  of emails, logging into SFTP servers etc etc for use within COS code
To manage external passwords we could use LastPass or any other proprietary password loggers, but I need to be able to call them as part of the automation (COS code) and occasionally visually look them up to "remind" the staff of their passwords.

any suggestions as to the best class data constructs to handle this scenario. Should the whole table be encrypted, only the passwords etc.

I was wondering if anyone has ever created a unit test which would run testing a mac routine (old fashion), via 

This code snippet sends an XML request to a server and saves the response to a file. The class method "test" runs the code:

Class objectscript.postXML
{
	classmethod test() {
		Set HTTPRequest = ##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
	    Set HTTPRequest.ContentType = "text/xml"
	    Set HTTPRequest.NoDefaultContentCharset = 1
	    Set HTTPRequest.Location = "ITOMCZ"
	    Set HTTPRequest.Server = "wph.foactive.com"
	    Do HTTPRequest.RemoveHeader("User-Agent")  
	    Do HTTPRequest.RemoveHeader("Accept-Encoding") 
	    Do HTTPRequest.RemoveHeader("Connection")
	    Do HTTPRequest.SetHeader("Expect","100-continue")
    Set RequestXML = ##class(%Library.File).%New("c:\test.xml")
    Do RequestXML.Open("RS")
    Do HTTPRequest.EntityBody.CopyFrom(RequestXML)
    Do RequestXML.%Close()
 
    Do HTTPRequest.Post(HTTPRequest.Location)
 
    Do $System.OBJ.Dump(HTTPRequest)
    Do $System.OBJ.Dump(HTTPRequest.HttpResponse)
 
    Write HTTPRequest.HttpResponse.Data.Size
    Write HTTPRequest.ContentLength
 
    Set ResponseStream = ##class(%Stream.FileBinary).%New()
    // Second part is typically the file extension, i.e.: application/pdf -> pdf
    Set FileType = $Piece(HTTPRequest.HttpResponse.GetHeader("CONTENT-TYPE"),"/",2)
    Set ResponseStream.Filename = "C:\test."_FileType
 
    Write ResponseStream.CopyFrom(HTTPRequest.HttpResponse.Data)
 
    Write ResponseStream.%Save()
    Do ResponseStream.%Close()
}

}

This post is intended to guide you through the new JSON capabilities that we introduced in Caché 2016.1. JSON has emerged to a serialization format used in many places. The web started it, but nowadays it is utilized everywhere. We've got plenty to cover, so let's get started.

Hi,

Is there any COS command could kill all the globals given the namespace?

Thanks.

Hello,

I have some beginner questions as I am working through the InterSystems Cache learning path:

- Where I work, we us Cache, but we often learning about and train on MUMPS.  No one really talks about or mentions MUMPS here, but my understanding is that ObjectScript is basically MUMPS plus whatever new things InterSystems put on top of it.  Is that a fair assessment?

- The training online often refers to IRIS.  We don't use IRIS, but we use globals to store data.  I suppose I'm just confused on the difference between Cache, Zen, IRIS and other products as they all seem to do similar things.

Has anyone called any outside Javascript code from inside their class files? I asked a long time ago if there was a way to manipulate an image within Cache Object Script, and since Cache doesn't have any image libraries its not really possible. However I have found Javascript to resize an image and wonder how hard it would be to mesh the two together.

Can anyone share any examples?

Thanks

Scott

Hi -

I'm wondering if anyone has coded up a means to create an extension for a %Persistent class from a base class to a sub-class without making a ton of assumptions about the Global structure. I'm trying to create a new "extension" record that would have the same ID as the Base Class 

Class BaseRecord Extends %Persistent

and

Class SubRecord Extends BaseRecord

where I would have an instance of a "BaseRecord" and I want to turn it into a "SubRecord" instance and have all of the existing references to the BaseRecord survive.

Hi Everyone!

As you know Advent of Code 2018 is in full swing! Till the 25th of December 2018 each day 2 programming problems to sharpen your programming skills! 

And now we're ready to present great prizes for Members of InterSystems Global Masters Advocate Hub!

The following code walks a DOM using %XML.Node. It also prevents %XML.Writer to change whitespace. Run the code using the class method "test":

Class objectscript.walkDOM Extends %Persistent
{
	ClassMethod dfs(node As %XML.Node)
	{
	    s entrynode=node.NodeId
	    do {
	    //element nodes with one whitespacetyped child are the ones we want to change
	    if (node.NodeType=$$$xmlELEMENTNODE){
	        s snode=node.NodeId     
	        if (node.MoveToFirstChild())            
	            {
	                i ('node.MoveToNextSibling()){
	                    i (node.NodeType=$$$xmlWHITESPACENODE){
	                        s node.NodeType=$$$xmlTEXTNODE
	                        s node.NodeId=snode
	                    }

	        }
	        s node.NodeId=snode     
	    }   
	    if (node.HasChildNodes()){
	        d node.MoveToFirstChild()
	        d ..dfs(node)
	    }
	    } while (node.NodeType'="" && node.MoveToNextSibling())
	    s node.NodeId=entrynode
	     
	}
	 
	ClassMethod test()
	{
	  set xml = "abcdefg<![CDATA[   ]]>"
	 
	  s reader=##class(%XML.Reader).%New()
	  do reader.OpenString(xml)  
	  set writer = ##class(%XML.Writer).%New()
	  //do some magic
	  d ..dfs(reader.Document)
	   
	  w !,"with indent=1:",!
	  set writer.Indent = 1
	  do writer.OutputToString()
	  do writer.Document(reader.Document)
	  w writer.GetXMLString()
	  set writer.Indent = 0
	  w !,"with indent=0:",!

This article was written as an attempt to share the experience of installing the InterSystems Caché DBMS for production environment. We all know that the development configuration of a DBMS is very different from real-life conditions. As a rule, development is carried out in “hothouse conditions” with a bare minimum of security measures, but when we publish our project online, we must ensure its reliable and uninterrupted operation in a very aggressive environment.

Hello,

I'm looking to find if there is a datatype convert equivalent in Object Script to SQL convert function. Have a VarBinary string coming in from source application (which is really performing a SQL dump). The source application uses the standard SQL convert function to convert from varchar to varbinary on their side.

I know &sql(Convert()) should work in Object Script, but am wondering if there is a better way of doing this. 

Getting data in via flat file (Record Map), then using data transform to transpose this data to SDA3.
