#SQL

End users sure love Excel tables. So, how can you deliver the second to the first? Read this post to find out.

Hi everyone,

Im new  in cache, i came from Java and im missing some features that i couldn't find in the documentation,  I hope you can help me with this questions.

Just a brief introducction: 

- Im in a project with old cache version, so saddly i can't use Eclipse + Atelier, so im using Studio.

- Currently im in a project with persistent classes, we want to turn apart the globals and focus on tables. 

The questions:

Is there any way to make something like hibernate for cache %Persistent classes?

Hi All,

I have two tables LB_TestSet and LB_Transfer

LB_Transfer has a list if TestSet row IDs, so i am doing the following join

SELECT 
LBTS_RowID,
,LBTS_CollectedDate
FROM SQLUser.LB_TestSet 
JOIN SQLUser.LB_Transfer ON ($LISTBUILD(LBTS_RowID) %INLIST LBTR_TestSetList)
WHERE LBTS_CollectedDate BETWEEN '2019-01-01' AND  '2019-05-10'

Without the date filter the query returns data, but if i add the date filter no data is returned

I also tried using %INTERNAL, %EXTERNAL TO_DATE('2009-01-01','YYYY-MM-DD')

if i filter by RowID for example the filters work.

here is my trigger:

CREATE TRIGGER "SQLUser".SYM_ON_U_FOR_SYM_CHNNL_125123 AFTER 
UPDATE
   ON "SQLUser"."sym_channel" REFERENCING OLD ROW AS OLD NEW ROW AS NEW FOR EACH ROW 
   DECLARE @var_row_data VARCHAR(16336);
WHEN
   (
      1 = 1 
      and 1 = 1
   )
   -- I will use OLD/NEW alias here set @var_row_data = ''; LANGUAGE sql insert into mytable (id, data) values(1, @var_row_data);

here is error message:

ERROR: [SQLCODE: <-400>:<FATAL ERROR >] [Location: ] [%msg: <ERROR #5475: Compile routine error: User.symchannel. 错误: %Library.CacheTrigger.

Have some free text fields in your application that you wish you could search efficiently?  Tried using some methods before but found out that they just cannot match the performance needs of your customers?  Do I have one weird trick that will solve all your problems?  Don’t you already know!?  All I do is bring great solutions to your performance pitfalls!

As usual, if you want the TL;DR (too long; didn’t read) version, skip to the end.  Just know you are hurting my feelings.

If you open up your version of Sample.

Hi! I've been fiddling with linked tables to get data from other servers, and I encountered a problem that I'm curious about. Maybe I'm not using these tools as intended or there's more going on, so I'm asking here.

I'm running a query on linked table A, something simple like this:

select name from A where id = 5983658923646

And I get this error:

[SQLCODE: <-400>:<Fatal error occurred>]

  [%msg: <>]

If id, or anything comparison, is something smaller like 4345, it works just fine. It's only when the where reaches a certain length, not just id, that it fails.

Hi!

I was trying to create a query that can be exposed as a stored procedure (function actually) that would return a resultset with a random number of columns. 

Unfortunately, it seems that unless I specify the ROWSPEC annotation on the Query method, I won't get any columns exposed. I was hoping to implement QueryNameGetInfo method and specify the names and number of columns I would be returning dynamically. But it seems that GetInfo information is simply ignored.

Here is my code:

Class Test.Test
{
	ClassMethod MyCustomQueryClose(ByRef qHandle As %Binary) As %Status
	{
	    Quit $$$OK
	}
	
	ClassMethod MyCustomQueryExecute(ByRef qHandle As %Binary, ByVal pCubeName As %Library.String) As %Status
	{
	     Quit $$$OK
	}
	
	ClassMethod MyCustomQueryFetch(ByRef qHandle As %Binary, ByRef Row As %List, ByRef AtEnd As %Integer = 0) As %Status
	{
		Set Row=$ListBuild(1,"Amir",2,"Test")
		Set AtEnd=1
	    
	    Quit $$$OK
	}
	
	ClassMethod MyCustomQueryGetInfo(ByRef colinfo As %List, ByRef parminfo As %List, ByRef idinfo As %List, ByRef qHandle As %Binary, extoption As %Integer = 0, ByRef extinfo As %List) as %Status
	{
		Set colinfo=$lb($lb("C1","10","C1"),$lb("C2","10","C2"),$lb("C3","10","C3"),$lb("C4","10","C4"))
		Set parminfo=$lb($lb("pCubeName","10"))
		Set idinfo=$lb(0,"")
		If extoption 
		{
			Set extinfo=$lb("","")
		}	
		Quit $$$OK
	}

	
	Query MyCustomQueryCube(ByVal pCubeName As %Library.String) As %Query [ SqlProc, SqlName = "GetFeaturesFromCube" ]
	{
	} 
}

Good Afternoon,
I have a co-worker who is trying to run the below query via ODBC. The issue is that the query appears to be running extremely slow (nearly 2 hours).

Class ICT.Experiments.A Extends %Persistent
{
Property Name As %String;
Property Collection As list Of ICT.Experiments.B;
Property Collection2 As array Of ICT.Experiments.C;
}

Class ICT.Experiments.B Extends %Persistent
{
Property Name As %String;
}

Class ICT.Experiments.C Extends %Persistent
{
Property Name As %String;

I have the classes above and I can select columns from the array collection by using two joins as follows:

SELECT 
mainTable.ID, mainTable.Name, c.Name
FROM ICT_Experiments.A mainTable
LEFT JOIN ICT_Experiments.A_Collection2 arrayTable ON arrayTable.A = mainTable.

Hello all,

I am still learning CACHE and have below question.

In one of my ZEN method i am creating a table using

&sql(CREATE TABLE xxxxx(TNAMESPACE CHAR(100),TINTERFACE CHAR(100)))

Does any one knows how to concatenate a $USERNAME or any  content of a variable to the name of table ?

&sql(CREATE TABLE xxxxx_$USERNAME(TNAMESPACE CHAR(100),TINTERFACE CHAR(100))) is not WORKING.

Thanks,

Jimmy Christian.

I have two classes:

Class Example.Parent Extends %PersistentProperty 

Child Extends %Persistent

A parent can have many children. I want to query for parents and add children for each parent to my result.

Here is the code that I query with:

In the QueryParents method, while iterating through the result set, I trigger a new query for each parent to find the children. And at the end I return a JSON structure. Now, this works but it is not going to scale well when there are many records in the database.

Is there a better approach to doing this?

I have version 2017.2 installed.

Hello,

I am trying to run a simple SELECT STATEMENT in USER NAMESPACE.

SELECT * FROM projectname.table

What is the syntax if i need to get data for a table in another namespace eg. SAMPLES., SYS

SELECT * FROM SAMPLES.projectname.table  is not working.

Thanks in advance.

We use a lot of external MS SQL calls to look up numerous things when it comes to HL7. I am running into an issue where the outbound calls are queued but the message is sent onto the next process before it gets a response. How do I get it to wait till the response gets back from the MS SQL call before sending it onto the next process?

Below is a screen shot of what I am trying to explain...Select Research Study executes at 8:33 the message is sent to the next process at 8:34, but the response of the MSSQL call doesn't come till 9:31.

Hello everyone!
I need to have a ResultSet of type % SQL.Statement show its contents when it is trafficked in a message property by Business Process.
I tried to use the % XML.DataSet type that inherits properties of type % XML.Adaptor, but did not work.
Is there any other way to traffic as an object, other than within a Stream?

Note: I can not traffic Streams and I will not be able to use Correlate in this case.

I use Documatic a lot to generate class documentation from comments embedded in the code. Is there a good way to create documentation for SQL views as well? Ideally I want to document each column in the view with HTML markup similar to how I document each method of a class with Documatic.

Hi all,

In order to prioritize functional requirements for evolving our SQL developer experience, we have prepared a short survey to better understand how you’re currently using and, in an ideal world, would like most to interact with our SQL platform.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DSY6YT2

Don’t hesitate to forward this survey informally to your peers you know are accessing our SQL engine on a regular basis. There’s a disclaimer at the top that indicates we are highly interested in feedback to drive our roadmap, but obviously cannot commit to implementing all of it.

Hi! We have received a request to create a new rule on CachéQuality to identify when a developer uses double quotes (" ") within any SQL statement.

We have been asked many times about SQL validation rules, and we would like to open a debate to allow everyone discuss what would you like to be checked on a SQL statement.

Current examples are for basic situations:

• Using SQL.Statement class:

Set stmt = ##CLASS(%SQL.Statement).

I am having an intermittent issue that when I make a call to MSSQL from a BPL that the response does not come back in the amount of time required. Since the call from the BPL is synchronous I tried changing the timeout to 60 but it has not helped (see below). Is there anyway to guarantee that the call waits long enough for a response before continuing on?

Thanks

I am trying to convert a string to date but can not get it to work I have  function that I would like to take in a date string and covert it to date object

here is the ezample so far can not get it to work any help appreciated 

set p="12/03/2019"
 
w $System.SQL.TODATE(p,"YYYY-MM-DD")
 
<ILLEGAL VALUE>todate+32^%qarfunc

if I try this still get the wrong value returned

set p="12/03/2019" 
w $ZDATE(p,3)

Hi 

Can I use a the SQL  'Table-Valued Parameter' when i call a store procedure in sql outbound adapter using ExecuteProcedure?

to pass multiple rows all together as a block, I need to process all the records in one transaction using commit and rollback (if failure)

Thanks

Hi Community!

There are two general ways to execute arbitrary SQL  in serverside ObjectScript code: EmbeddedSQL and ObjectScript SQL a.k.a. Dynamic SQL.

E.g. if we want to get the value of the property of instance with a certain ID using SQL we can do:

&sql(SELECT Name INTO :name FROM Sample.Person WHERE ID=1)

write name

Same result with %SQL.Statement:

set rs=##class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirect(,"SELECT Name as name FROM Sample.Person where ID=1")
  do rs.%Next()
  write rs.name

Let's imagine you have only SQL. You need some table where you should increment value in some property when you update this line.

We have the table

CREATE TABLE "test" (
  "identifier"   VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL,
  "value"        INTEGER,
  PRIMARY KEY ("identifier")
)

Just wondering an Insight in the difference between these two indexes

IdKey / PrimaryKey
================= 

Property Identifier As %Integer

Index Index1 on Identifier [Idkey]

Index Index2 on Identifier [PrimaryKey]

What's the difference?

1. If I don't have Index1 and only have Index2,  then cache does still make its own id.
So how and why  do I ever use the PrimaryKey.  In Joins ??

Table1.Identifier = Table2.Identifier instead of Table1.Id = Table2.id ??
But I can still use Table1.Id = Table2.Id as cache still made one ID field

So where is PrimaryKey useful in cache?

I try to create a column with computeonchange. 

Its works with CREATE TABLE sql command, but if i use ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN sql command this computeonchange doesn't works.

any reason why?

example:

CREATE TABLE MyStudents (   Name VARCHAR(16) NOT NULL,   surname VARCHAR(16))

alter table MyStudents add column fullname Varchar(50) COMPUTECODE { SET {fullname}={Name}_ "?" _{surname}} COMPUTEONCHANGE (Name,surname)  

insert into SQLUser.MyStudents (Name, surname) values ('name1',null)

update MyStudents set name = 'name' where name = 'name1'

this not updates fullname column value.

Hi,

When Creating a custom security role, what privileges do I need to add to it, in order for the users that I grant him the role, to be able to use 

dynamic SQL to perform read only queries on all tables in a namespace?

I have a security role, that contains the %Service_SQL privilege,

And yet when I connect to a terminal and try to run an SQL query using dynamic SQL , I get a "user is not privileged for the operation" error.

SetIdentityInsert call controls the ability of the user to specify a value for the IDENTITY property when saving a new object, a value for the IDENTITY column or an explicit ROWID value in an SQL INSERT. If IDENTITY_INSERT is false and the user specifies an explicit IDENTITY or ROWID value when saving a new object or inserting a new ROW then an error condition is reported.

Setting takes effect immediately and lasts for the duration of the process or until SetIdentityInsert is called again.

My question is how can I change this setting system-wide?

Hi Community!

Suppose I have a property in a ObjectScript class:

Property values As list Of %String

What an SQL query can help to return the values of the property as JSON array via SQL access (JDBC)?

Is there a way or can it be done to use conditional logic in sql like so

 Query Q1(formal as %String) As %SQLQuery [ Final ]
{
    
    SELECT patientnumber,ID, CASE
    WHEN ID = 50 THEN "The is 50"
    WHEN ID = 30 THEN "This is 30"
    ELSE "The quantity is under 30"
END FROM Audit.Table WHERE ID = :formal AND EndDate is null} 

}

Problem

I got a quick answer from this forum yesterday so I'm going to try my luck again today!  I've hit an error in another table when trying to extract through the Cache ODBC driver, but this one gives me less details and I'm struggling to pinpoint what might be causing the error.

The table I am trying to extract is called REF_TABLE_ONE.

Here's the Error:

[Cache Error: <<NOLINE>%0AmBx1^%sqlcq.PRD.2249>]
[Location: <ServerLoop - Query Fetch>]

Research/Trial & Error

Based on my research, it looks like the error results from something missing in a routine. I have limited access to this system.

Problem

I'm working on exporting data from an Intersystems Cache database through the Cache ODBC Driver. There is a particular table that is giving me an error message. The ODBC Driver crashes and reports an error from the Cache system. I think I was able to trace down where the error is coming from, but I do not know how to debug or fix the error.

The table I am trying to extract is called SEDMIHP.

Here's the Error:

[Cache Error: <<UNDEFINED>%0AmBd16^%sqlcq.PRD.3284 ^SEDMIHP(4,77)>]
[Location: <ServerLoop - Query Fetch>]
