Hey Community, 

Yeah, I know we have a lot of tips & tricks articles - we even have a special tag for it, right? But I can not share my own collection. In this collection, you can find snippets for beginners, as well as some everyday ObjectScript constructions. In fact, it's also a way to learn something new about my favorite programming language. So, if you guys have anything to add, you are welcome!

Question Scott Roth · Apr 23

Was wondering if anyone had a Dynamic way to see if a Global is still being used by a Class File. 

We have been monitoring our Global Size recently, and I am trying to find problematic Class files that are not being cleaned up or used appropriately. I have come across some globals that do not seem to have a Class attached to them anymore, and instead of deleting globals 1 by 1, I was looking for a way that we could dynamically do this since the globals have data that is stale in them.

Thanks

Scott

Most IRIS developers use $LISTBUILD every day — often without even noticing it.

It is not just a convenient function for building lists. It is also the default internal format used to store row data, global values, and many intermediate structures inside the database engine.

Despite this, the actual binary representation of $LISTBUILD values is rarely discussed. Most developers rely on its behavior, but never look at how the data is really stored.

This article focuses strictly on the binary layout of $LISTBUILD values, based on direct inspection via zzdump.

What is a Microservice?

A microservice is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of small, autonomous services. Each component is developed around a specific business capability, can be deployed independently, and is typically managed by a miniature, specialized, self-governing team.
