#ObjectScript

Hello Everyone,

This is a series of programming challenges for beginners and experienced Caché programmers.

For an introduction : go to article https://community.intersystems.com/post/advent-code-2016-day1-no-time-ta...

I have a class defined like this:

Class test.ABC Extends %RegisteredObject   {

Property myProp As %Binary [ Internal, Private ];

}

Is there a way to get a value of myProp from outside of the object?

I can't modify or extend the class obviously.

Hello team,

I am trying to do a basic read file of HL7 messages. Need to count how many FT1 segments are there in each file and how many messages are in each file.

Any help will be appreciated. I have the stream object.

Just need to loop through the stream and get the info in some way.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jimmy Christian.

Hi

We have a use case whereby very large HL7 MDM messages, which contain many OBX segments, need to be processed by a custom business process. Part of the process is to iterate over each OBX segment and set a value in the same field for each segment.

Hi all,

We're developing a medical appointment app that connects doctors' schedules to an appointment provider.

The provider is returning us the appointment in the following format:

Thu Jul 03 08:20:00 CEST 2025

It means, 03 july 2025 at 08:20:00 Central European Summer Time (UTC+2)

But we need the following format:

2025-07-03 08:20:00+02:00

Is there any option to convert zone time code (CEST) to a UTC+x ?

How to convert zone time code (CEST, CET, ET, EDT, etc..) in its zone time in UTC (UTC+2, UTC+1, UTC-5, etc..) ?

Cache Studio almost always crashes when I click rows in Call Stack view during debugging. Then Cache has to be restarted because last edited file remains locked.

Looks like I'm the only one who uses the debugger. Or is there a magic spell to make stack view working?

Cache 2016.1.1

I am trying to determine the write-access to a windows-directory, using the method %File.Writeable(). But, this method always returns the boolean "true", even when I have revoked the write-access of Healthshare-user in this directory.

Note:
1) When the same ensemble-service tries to write a file in this directory (which it says is "writeable"), it fails.
2) The method %File.Writeable(...) works perfectly in the case of files.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance... :-)

I have global with binary data, structured like:

^a(1)=<binary>

^a(2)=<binary>

^a(n)=<binary>

What could be easiest way to read it via Stream interface? I.e. to pass an adapter to a function expecting Stream?

I try to run a small test routine (guessing a random number) in WebTerminal but the result looks broken.

I think it relates to backspace.
Is there some special setting required?

I'm creating a Business Process that:

1. Transforms one object into another using DTL
2. Sends this object to an operation
3. Transform the object obtained in first point into another one using DTL
4. Sends the second object to an operation

The Business Process is created with BPL, and objects are stored in BP context. When I execute this Process, in the 3rd point the object obtained in first transformation doesn't exist. It's empty.

I have tried to make transformation before making CALL's, I mean:

Hello,

Still related to the unit test with coverage support project, one goal is to make that package available to everyone.

One possible way I already know of is that all fully qualified class names (ie, the package + the class name) start with %, which mean that on installation all classes will end up in the %SYS namespace, but this requires that the install be done as a user with the necessary privileges to write to %SYS.
