#ObjectScript

I am currently working on a issue with WRC on one of my Inbound SQL Adapters not returning all the records it should be. If I looked at the count of the records in Ensemble and compare it to that of a Microsoft SQL View, Ensemble seems to be off by a few records here and there. I am using a full dynamic select statement in my settings of the adapter.

Hi!

While i am trying to write a data i am getting a error as "<PROPERTY DOES NOT EXIST>zFile+15^User.zKQRest.1 *value,%Collection.ListOfObj" but there are values stored in it. How can i break it write it separately.

Hello everyone .

I am trying to update a setting of an operation directly via the code of a business operation.
Concretely, my customer want a counter for the number of calls to the operation and the possibility to redefine the point of this counter.

Good day,

I need to find out if it is possible somehow to receive actual linux TIMESTAMP for example with $NOW() or other functions.
I was trying to recalculate it with $NOW() function, but without success. I would like to simulate Redis TIME command in COS.

My tryings:

USER > set time = $NOW()

USER > w (($PIECE(time,",",1)*86399) + $PIECE(time,",",2))
5573319043.403186

But in Redis it is:

> time
​1) 1502471158

On web page: http://try.redis.io/
type "time" + enter. And it will results as short documentation says: https://redis.io/commands/time

And this behavior I would like to implement in COS.

I have a list of %Library.ArrayOfObjects . Each of list elements has some properties. I have to sort list by one of its objects properties. Is there a predefined method to doing that? (quicksort maybe?)

In a previous exercise, I was able to show the power of Caché.
A medium-designed set of interdependent tables with some GB of data.
URLs cross reference over some million pages resulting in ~3 billion records

Competition was between

• Caché
• PostgreSQL
• MySQL

Criteria were Speed + Storage consumption
I composed  a customized loader fed over a "raw" TCP connection
Mapping the "objects" into the final table by directly writing to Global Storage.

Hi, folks!

There is an interesting discussion in the neighboring topic which raises a question for me: is there any reason to have %Status as a return value for COS method?

Major difference between GOTO and do command?

In reviewing the documentation found here, it states that there is an Attributes property. Since this is an array, I was wondering how I would go about traversing through the array to review what attributes are available on the file.

I am running a ZBREAK trace on a legacy FDBMS application that uses arrays but rather than displaying the array value contents, I am seeing logs similar to the following.

Trace: ZBREAK SET LINE=Array Val at BIOPWR+6^BIOPWR

My ZBREAK trace settings are as follows: 

ZBREAK /TRACE:ON:"/somedir/trace1.log"
ZBREAK *LINE:"T"

The 'LINE' array has a single integer subscript and some string data. The subscript is sometimes calculated using arbitrary calculations such as S LINE(I-33)="BLAH BLAH BLAH" This makes the code very difficult to read and debug.

Hi community,

I have some constants hardcoded in my class as parameter values, and those constants are referenced in many places in my module. Now the need has arisen to provide different value for those parameters depending on some context. Is it possible to create some sort of accessor method for the parameter (like it is possible for properties), or do I need to perform a thorough refactoring?

Thanks.

Hi,

How can I read the stack of another process?

I know about ^JOBEXAM, but I only know how to use through terminal, and I need to get a string, or at least do a method that returns me a string

For example:

I have process A and B

B monitors process A at each second.

B logs information about process A in a table

Informations about lock I get through %SYS.LockQuery and the process through %SYS.Process

How can I get stack of process A from process B to log in the table?

Thanks

Good day,

I would like to know how to detect in Caché ObjectScript if data saved in string is number and furthermore, if it's type is integer.

I maybe found a solution:
 

set value = "44.2d3"

try{
     set status = $INUMBER(value,"")
     if ('$FIND(+value,".")){
          w "your variable: '"_value_"' is number and integer"
     }else{
          w "variable is number but no integer"
     }
}catch(e){
     w "variable is not number" 
}

But I don't know how to do it correctly or if there exist better solution in COS (or maybe my solution is incorrect).

Thanks in advance for answers.

Hi, folks!

Suppose I have a CSP app, which provides some service.

And the code of my App knows the name of the CSP App in form: /myappname

How can I programmatically obtain the URL for CSP apps to send the full qualified link to the users(e.g. via email) of my app?

E.g. https://productionserver.com/myappname

In this article I would like to tell you about macros in InterSystems Caché. A macro is a symbolic name that is replaced with a set of instructions during compilation. A macro can “unfold” in various instruction sets each time it is called, depending on the parameters passed to it and activated scenarios. This can be both static code and the result of ObjectScript execution. Let's take a look at how you can use them in your application.

What is a major difference between $case and $select?

Hi,

I have a situation where I write a character stream to a file. The file content gets signed and the signature is sent to a service provider together with the file content.

The signing is done using openssl.

This works perfectly on a dev PC, which is runnning Windows and has a little-endian architecture.

The problem is as soon as I do this on the server, which has a big-endian architecture, the signed value is incorrect according to the service provider.

The content is signed using RSA SHA256 with PSS padding.

I've had a look at $nconvert, $sconvert, etc., but can't get to a solution.

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.

For example, RoutineB() would be able to access ^Global(1) and ^Global(1,2) since RoutineA() utilized them, but RoutineB() would have to read ^Global(1,7) from disk as it was not utilized by RoutineA().

Hi everyone

Is there any way to change a class definition (especifically a query definition during the compilation time)?
The idea is: 
    I have an abstract class with a parameter where I will define the ROWSPEC of a query and some methods to populate e temporary table
The implementation class will override the parameter, specifying the ROWSPEC of this implementation, and the methods will populate the rows in the same format as the ROWSPEC.

I want to change the ROWSPEC of the inherit query according to the implementation of the overriden parameter.

I am working with Caché Relationships.

I know how to iterate through the One side of the relationship and for each One iterate through all the various Manys.

What I have been trying to figure out, is the code (I can put into a Class) that will start at the top of the Manys, iterate down and for each of the Manys, pull the associated One.

I can do this with SQL or Globals, but I want to use only Class type code.

Is that clear? Any help?

Quotes (1NF/2NF/3NF)^ru:

Every row-and-column intersection contains exactly one value from the applicable domain (and nothing else). The same value can be atomic or non-atomic depending on the purpose of this value. For example, “4286” can be

• atomic, if its denotes “a credit card’s PIN code” (if it’s broken down or reshuffled, it is of no use any longer)
• non-atomic, if it’s just a “sequence of numbers” (the value still makes sense if broken down into several parts or reshuffled)

This article explores the standard methods of increasing the performance of SQL queries involving the following types of fields: string, date, simple list (in the $LB format), "list of <...>" and "array of <...>".

I needed to pass through a file with Ensemble but the operation wasn't writing some filenames as given because the  EnsLib.File.PassthroughOperation 'sanitizes' filenames removing characters that are not valid on some operating

Oh No! It has stripped out my semicolon and ampersand! I need them!

Caché offers a number of methods for going through a collection and doing something with its elements. The easiest method uses a while-loop and lets you fulfill the task in an imperative manner. The developer needs to take care of the iterator, jumping to the next element and checking if the loop is within the collection.

 But is it really what a developer should be concerned with?

Good day, I have this issue. I have global like: ^myglobal(varX) = $LB(var1,var2). I need to delete all globals that have variable var1 in that list same without a need to iterate through all globals and checking their value.

Exact example:

- in database exist following:

^myglobal("Marek") = $LB("code2",1400)
^myglobal("Ondrej") = $LB("code1",12)
^myglobal("Nikita") = $LB("code2",32)
^myglobal("Evgeny") = $LB("code1",76)
^myglobal("Maks") = $LB("code2",99)
^myglobal("Eduard") = $LB("code1",14)
Now! How to delete all globals that have in list in the first place value "code2" please?

Good day, I would like to find out the size of Caché ObjectScript variable in order to guarantee that my program will not leak, equally in terminal and Caché globals.  For example how huge number I can store in that variable ? And what happen in Caché when variable will leak ? How is this behavior treated? (how much memory is reserved for common variable?)

Thanks  in advance for your answers.

Sometimes, it comes in very handy (especially for the EAV model) to use array properties in a class and be able to qickly search by their elements: both the key and the value.

Let’s take a look at a simple example:

This is a translation of the following article. Thanks [@Evgeny Shvarov] for the help in translation.

This post is also available on Habrahabr^ru.

The post was inspired by this Habrahabr article: Interval-associative array^ru→en.

Since the original implementation relies on Python slices, the Caché public may find the following article useful: Everything you wanted to know about slices^ru→en.

Note: Please note that the exact functional equivalent of Python slices has never been implemented in Caché, since this functionality has never been required.

All right, let’s cut to the chase and take a look at some examples.

This discussion is open to anyone who use or know about WebTerminal project. It is a result of a long story of the project development, testing and maintaining.

While WebTerminal greatly improves user experience by enhancing standard terminal with additional features, there are numerous issues (#77, #92, #81, #87 and others) showing that it performs not as expected in some cases, and does not support some very basic things (like $ZA/$ZB variables).

Class documentation:

class %Exception.General extends AbstractException

Simple exception class that can be throw in user code. You can throw this with code similar to:

	Throw ##class(%Exception.General).%New(name,numericCode,location,data)

The name is a string name for the exception, the numericCode is a numeric error code. If the location field is blank and $$$envCallerErrorInfo is defined then the system will attempt to fill in this location where the exception was thrown from automatically. You can pass additional exception data in the data argument.

Here's my issue. I've been using Sample.* globals and packages mapped to another development namespace to realize unit tests. So when I ran it, I notice that I forgot to start a transaction in order to be able rollback it to it's original data.
I assumed that I should use transactions since I was manipulating it's data but I didn't want it to be persisted.

Now I've lost all their default data. That's ok, or so I though. since I supposedly should run %Populate on the Sample.
