#ObjectScript

As part of a migration project from a bunch of java classes to IRIS, we need to maintain a few jar files due to some external dependencies.

The problem I am seeing is that I cannot pass a byte array ( byte[] ) from ObjectScript to the Java Class. I have tried a number of different ways

I have reproduced in a java class and Objectscript class:
Java Class:

package wrc;

public class TestJava {
    
    public static void testByteArr(byte[] keyBytes) {

        System.out.println("keyBytes getClass() = " + keyBytes.getClass() );
        System.out.println("keyBytes toString() = " + keyBytes.

InterSystems has corrected a defect that causes invalid database and journal records to be introduced when using a specific $LIST syntax. The likelihood of encountering this defect is very low but the operational impacts can be significant.

In tracking down some of our Orphaned message issues, I was wondering if setting our EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot variable equal to "" was the same as calling the .Clean() method on EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot? Are they the same?

should I be possibly using ##class(EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot).%Delete() instead?

I'm sure I've seen this issue reported before, but a search hasn't turned it up.

This appears to happen randomly, but once it starts it doesn't seem to stop ... at least for a while. I attempt to compile a class and compilation fails but produces no error explaining why. Here's an example:

The last two compilation errors repeat indefinitely (or at least until I've found and fixed the issue), but I can open the class in Studio, compile, and get the error information in the output panel every time. The compilation qualifiers are the same in both.

Hi Community,

The Season's holidays are fast approaching, and it's time to get ready for them! Join the Advent of Code 2024 with InterSystems and engage in our ObjectScript challenge!

I'm attempting to build a fairly complicated object graph, with nested objects and collections, in order to create a FHIR bundle.

In its most basic form there is a <bundle></bundle> element that represents the root, and there can be a number of nested <entry></entry> child elements.

I'm attempting to represent this as such:

class Bundle (%RegisteredObject, %XML.Adaptor)
{
    Property Entries As List Of Entry;
}

The problem is when this is projected it nests each Entry object within an Entries container, which makes sense but I don't want this.

ObjectScript always follows strict left-to-right execution of arithmetic operators. 

The && operator evaluates the left operand and returns a value of FALSE (0) if it evaluates to a value of zero.

I tried executing the SQL JSON_TABLE query with large JSON string(more than 200000 characters) and I got the below error. I'm curious about this under the hood workflow and how does it reach reaches MAXSTRING.

 Thanks!

Hello, community.

I have a problem with running a SQL query on a linked MySQL table.

The connection works fine, but the following query throws an error:

SELECT   TOP 10 * FROM   linkedinternal_test.persons

  [%msg: <Remote JDBC error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '10 T1.PersonID AS C1,T1.LastName AS C2,T1.FirstName AS C3,T1.Address AS C4,T1.Ci' at line 1. >]

The Lo-Code Challenge

Imagine the scene.  You are working happily at Widgets Direct, the internet's premier retailer of Widgets and Widget Accessories.   Your boss has some devastating news, some customers might not be fully happy with their widgets, and we need a helpdesk application to track these complaints.   To makes things interesting, he wants this with a very small code footprint and challenges you to deliver an application in less than 150 lines of code using InterSystems IRIS.  Is this even possible?

Earlier this year I announced availability of a VS Code extension for coding in ObjectScript, Embedded Python or SQL using the notebook paradigm popularized by Jupyter. Today I published a maintenance release to correct a "getting started" problem.

Here's a video of the installation steps from the extension's README:

(video superseded by an update in a later comment)

Why not try it for yourself?

You'll find the original text and all my Advent of Code efforts in different programming languages in https://bitbucket.org/janihur/advent-of-code/src/master/

ObjectScript code discussed here is found in https://bitbucket.org/janihur/advent-of-code/src/master/objectscript

I have been using ObjectScript only on last 1,5 years maybe 30% of my working time but the code at work is very different than in these puzzles. You can find my random code snippets and learning notes from https://github.com/janihur/objectscript-ex

This is the first time using ObjectScript during the contest.

Last Chapter: Creating a REST client to get Tracks from Spotify REST API - Part3 Get some data (e.g. Artists)

Git link: https://github.com/ecelg/InterSystems-IRIS-as-a-Spotify-REST-client

OK we create a method to get data and lets try to get some Tracks 😁

Now open a terminal and test the code

Run the following line

w ##class(rest.utli.requestUtli).getdata("Spotify","/search","offset=5&limit=10&query=Shape%20of%20you&type=track&market=SG")

ooooo no seems there is huge among of data returns.....😥

I would like to know what information can be found in 1 track.

The InterSystems platforms have always offered dynamic documentation of the packages and classes in a namespace, a feature known informally as Documatic. But what if you need to publish this class reference information on a website without requiring the site to be connected to an IRIS server containing the actual classes?

For my entry to the December 2024 Developer Community “Bringing Ideas to Reality” contest I decided to implement the idea of a generator that produces a static set of class reference pages .

Every time I try to update an SQL table using odbc connection, I'm getting: ERROR <Ens>ErrException: <MAX $ZF STRING>zPrepareW+1^%Library.SQLGatewayConnection.1

Set sqlStatement = "UPDATE dbo.Table1 SET OriginalMessageText="_OriginalMessageText_"WHERE Id='"_Id_"'"
$$$TRACE("SQL Statement: "_sqlStatement)

I know that the problem is with the length of the ORU HL7 message  (that contains OBX base64 PDF file ) I'm trying to update in the table, but is there a way to fix this? other than truncating the message ?

I also tried this statement but it didn't work as well

Set sql = "UPDATE dbo.

I'm trying to project a series of objects and nested objects to XML, and I'm having difficulties getting the XML representation exactly the way I need it to be. Here's what I'm working with, nothing complicated:

Class XMLTest Extends (%RegisteredObject, %XML.Adaptor)
{
    Property Id As Id;
}

Class Id Extends (%RegisteredObject, %XML.

Hence the question: is there a way to do that?
The goal is to get data (from half a thousand to 3-4 thousands lines) from DB, calculate standart deviation  then use it as logical condition in analyzer. 
For example IF std > custom_value = show_the_result ELSE null
There is a STDDEV(MDX) method  used in Analyzer but it is a measure and it can not be used as logical condition (correct me if i am wrong)

And there is a Embedded Python with numpy, but logic behind STDDEV(MDX) and numpy.

As we keep updating our software, we often realize that we require more and more modern solutions. So far, only one major piece of our software relies on reading barcodes in documents and images. Since Cache did not have a means of reading barcodes in the past, we have always achieved our goals by using a Visual Basic 6 application. However, it is no longer an ideal solution because it is currently complicated to maintain it. IRIS also lacks this capability, but it has recently got an option that makes up for it: embedded Python!

Hello,

Is there a programmatic way (in ObjectScript) to determine if a string is an SQL reserved word (aside from using embedded SQL to try to name a property with that string and look for the error :-))?

Thank you,

Jean

I have a business process that adds data to a global variable on receipt of an HL7 message, and a scheduled task that executes a class method defined within the same business process that removes data from the same global variable. With this in mind it makes sense to consider concurrency and therefore make use of the LOCK command.

My first question is whether this is actually necessary?

Throughout the forum, I find examples of using the method getSegmentByIndex to get the segment as I loop through the HL7 message segments.

Today I spent way too long trying to figure out why I could not modify the segment with this same method. I reached out to my more experienced team and I showed where I got the base code from what I was doing, but I myself could not find the documentation of the method.

After some time, we stumbled upon the GetMutableSegmentAt and GetSegmentAt methods and plugged the mutable method in its place and what do you know, it worked!

As the title suggests, I would like to programmatically export each HL7 schema category as XML, either as a stream object or to a file. How would I go about doing this?

i am trying to embed a dynamic SQL into Objectscript code , but the %NEXT() will return 0 , however when i copy the same query and run it in the SQL bit it will give me the result i want 
the code :

set myquery = "SELECT"
set myquery = myquery_" $PIECE(Substring(M.Rawcontent,Charindex('PD1|',M.Rawcontent),1000),'|',4),"
set myquery = myquery_" H1.TargetConfigName,"
set myquery = myquery_" H.Timecreated,"
set myquery = myquery_" H.MessageBodyId"
set myquery = myquery_" FROM"
set myquery = myquery_" Ens.MessageHeader H"
set myquery = myquery_" left outer join Enslib_HL7.Message M ON (H.MessageBodyId=M.

As the title suggests, I would like to programmatically export each individual data lookup table as XML, either as a stream object or to a file. How would I go about doing this?

Our TEST environment and PROD environment are on two different versions of HealthShare Health Connect.

User-defined aggregate functions have been supported in IRIS since 2021.1.0. I'd wished upon a star for these years ago before finding a secret hacky way to override MAX and MIN in a custom datatype, but didn't get a chance to actually try one out until today. I thought it was an interesting experience/example - the question of how to get a Median in IRIS SQL came up once before - so I'm sharing it here without too much further comment.

Hello,

I'm trying to carry a custom error from one business process to another.

BPL:LookupClass fails it's lookup and a custom error of "Lookup XYZ" is generated.

The class quits with that error, but upon quitting, the custom error gets wrapped in an Ensemble System error: 

ERROR <Ens>ErrBPTerminated: Terminating BP LookupClass # due to error: Lookup XYZ

This means, when I use the %LastError property to get the error message, it's not got the value I want to use. In this case, "Lookup XYZ".

Many programming languages use the try-and-catch construct to handle runtime errors gracefully. If the code within the try block encounters an error, it will throw an exception to the catch block, where the error handling occurs. Today we will dive into the ObjectScript implementation of this construct and discuss some ways to clean things up.
