Standalone Studio install includes UserImages.bmp image, with these contents:

I have never seen these icons anywhere in Studio, so where are they used?

Hello, I need to determine the best way to split a class containing multiple methods(about 20), into multiple classes in which each method is in its own class. I am wondering if there is another way other than manually creating the different classes, and copying each method into each class. Doing this in Intersystems Studio.

 Hello, good afternoon! (or good morning or good evening)
 

I was doing some very basic tests, based on the documentation, using Python in Studio.
I decided to call a python method through the Studio's own terminal as a demonstration, but the result was different from the terminal result:
Code:

Class User.EmbeddedPython
{

// Write ##class(User.EmbeddedPython).

Hi all,

As you know, it is very complicated to debug a Business Service Rest API because the object is created when the applications receive a request, so we cannot have the JobId that we can use to debug.

https://docs.intersystems.com/iris20211/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls…

So, I'm trying to get the JobId when the class is being created, write a trace in OnInit() method and write the JobId in a log info

Method OnInit() As %Status
{
	$$$LOGINFO("JobId: "_$JOB)
	hang 20 break
	Quit 

A quick question. What's the shortcut to uncomment multiple lines of code in Studio? And what's the shortcut to comment out multiple lines of code in Studio?

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

I'm preparing to move to a new PC soon and I'm trying to migrate the server connections I use in IRIS Studio to the new environment.

I’ve followed without success an old procedure I've found on a post on the community that involves exporting the registry key from:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Intersystems\Cache\Servers

But I’ve realized that this only includes the entries from the Server Manager and not the actual server connections used within IRIS Studio and shown within the "Server Connections" menu.

I want to grant access to view the Error Trap in System Management Portal to certain admins, without giving them access to anything that would alter Caché behavior, such as users or database sizes.  I was looking for a granular Resource that would do this, but haven't been able to find what I'm looking for.

Secondly, I granted %Developer role to my developers, but they don't appear to be able to use custom menus in Cache Studio until I grant them %All. Is there a granular Resource that I could use to add to a custom Role and grant to them that would allow custom menus in Cache Studio?

Hi Team, 

Is there a way to search for a string or use of a function in all namespaces in one go.

Studio option "Search in files"/Ctrl+shift+F search all files in the current namespace. We have 13 namespaces and wanted to know if there is an easy way to search in all namespaces in one go. 

Thank you for your help 

Hi community.

Yes, I know that there is other question "VS Code - debugging doesn't work" that is the same issue, but my IRIS instance is not using IIS.

Some times ago, I could debug without problems, but after some updates of Visual Studio, I get the following error

Failed to start the debug session. Check that the Intersystems server's web server supports WebSockets

I've activated the WebSocket protocol in the server (Windows Server 2019) but it still doesn't work.

The IRIS instance is not using IIS, I think it is using the Apache by default.

Do I need to do anything in special?

The launch.

I have three different methods for exporting classes and projects as XML files, but each one produces slightly different output:

1. Studio (what I currently use for exporting): I export as a project (with the 'only project' option disabled). This generates all classes and the project in a single XML file.
2. VS Code: This method only exports the classes, and it doesn't include the project in the XML file.
3. Console export using %SYSTEM.OBJ.Export: I used the following command to attempt the same export as Studio: do ##class(%SYSTEM.OBJ).Export("MyProject.Prj, MyProject.*.cls", "TempDir/MyProject.

Studio's Find In Files finds nothing if CLS routines are included. The error is WIDE CHAR. After using ##class(%Studio.Project).FindInFiles programmatically and then ZW after the same error I strongly suspect that CodeWalkopdatecopyopt in EnsLib.InteropTools.HL7.Cloverleaf.Parser.cls  is to blame. I cannot even open this class, unlike other classes from EnsLib.InteropTools.HL7. This error prevents searching even if System Items are excluded and I would peg EnsLib as System. Any remedy besides updating IRIS? Assuming this is fixed in later IRIS versions.

It's well-known that Studio and probably VS Code have options to expand ObjectScript commands and functions to their full names (Ctrl-E and Ctrl-Shift-E in Studio), therefore some methods to accomplish this should exist. The question is: how to do it programmatically?

Windows 10/Windows Server 2016:

I am currently monitoring our license use with a new rest-service I am implementing when I noticed my licenses on my instance being consumed and never released by Visual Studio Code.

For this I restarted my Instance, watched the licenses for a while, which remained at 1 during idle (I am guessing my MMGT Portal session uses 1) 
But when I connect to my Instance using Visual Studio Code (with my Instance setup in the extension already), suddenly 2 licenses are used.

Hi Friends ,

Here I have imported object script cls classes form local file to studio , As a result new package created and all the cls files showing inside the package.

Now When I comple newly imported classes , it is thows compilation error because , each cls is already compiled in source system.

Hi,

I have an odd problem that occurs when I'm trying to import lookup tables in the XML format into Studio.

I store my files in in C:\CodeRepository.

I can manually import these lookup tables using "Import local..." option in the InterSystems Studio. 

However, when I'm trying to import them using command in terminal: do $system.OBJ.LoadDir("C:\CodeRepository\","ck")

I'm getting the following error:

Loading file C:\CodeRepository\Title.lut.xml as xml
ERROR #5863: Another user has 'Title.LUT' open for editing.

In Studio, is it possible to call a dialog with a single input text field inside a custom Studio.Extension.Base.CheckIn method?

Update: The AI Bot just answered, not sure why it was at loss before I posted.

After upgrading from 2024 to 2025 Im not able to compile any class.

I was using ZPM and git-source-control.

Now Im getting 

Compilation started on 04/19/2025 20:53:00 with qualifiers 'cuk /checkuptodate=expandedonly'

ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <CLASS DOES NOT EXIST>OnAfterSave+4^SourceControl.Git.Extension.1 *SourceControl.Git.Utils
Detected 1 errors during compilation in 0.209s. class '%Studio.SourceControl.Interface', method 'OnBeforeTimestamp': <CLASS DOES NOT EXIST> 150 

I disabled SourceControl in Management portal and nothing happen.

is Intersystems studio available for Linux?

Hi,

I would like to ask whether there is some option to stop auto-formatting when I compile.  The code is sometimes well formatted but the auto-formatter does not work correctly in some situations. I am talking about the compilation in the Studio editor in this image, not about Visual Studio Code.

Thank you in advance,

Alin C Soare.

Unlike IRIS Studio have compile depended classes feature. How to achieve this in mac on Vscode.

We have classes in a Production environment that are causing us some issues - example attached.

When we export them from the production environment the XML contains a snippet like the following:

<UDLText name="T">
<Content><![CDATA[
//Property any As list Of %XML.String(XMLNAME = "any", XMLPROJECTION = "ANY") [ SqlFieldName = _any ];

]]></Content>
</UDLText>

When imported and compiled into an Ensemble instance this class works as expected.

When viewed/edited in a development environment we run into issues - the presentation is similar with both Studio and VS Code.

Has anyone had experience migrating source control projects from Subversion to Github, particularly when transitioning from InterSystems Studio to VSCode?

Pointers please for debugging a SOAP web-client.

We have several clients in different productions all accessing a web-service. We are trying to add another client in a new production, and its not working. The messages between the relevant Process and the SOAP web-client Operation are the same in the working and the non-working productions. But the web-service is reporting an XML parsing error to the non-working production. Here's the error as reported in the SOAP web-client Operation...

Is there any way to see the output of the web-client Operation

Hello,

First of all thanks for your help, and thank you for your time.

We have the following task:

To generate by hand the Ens.Request with the properties and inner Data Schemes which represent this XML, in HealthShare, by hand; the XML is this one:

<DSPortal360 xmlns="http://tempuri.org/DSPortal360.

Hello,

I am facing an issue where i am not able to start the Healtshare environment.

In the wew versions of IRIS the Studio is going to be deprecated. In the Studio when editing classes there is an option to add information at package level, with the option "Package Information" that shows this dialog:
 

In VSCode there is the option to add/edit this package information? If no, how can one add/edit this information without the Studio?

Thanks.

Hi Team,

"Unable to logon to Server Ensemble" also  I have don't have access to Ensemble studio and Management portal also, on Ensemble Server  (2015.2.0.664.1) Production Server. 

PFA error screenshot for your reference.

I recently started trying out Python in IRIS, but now I get this message repeated over and over again:

^Sources is not setup so hooks will not work

No idea where this came from and how it started. Any suggestions?

How to manipulate the code of the studio? Error messages, adding new items in the general options, formatting of the code, code typing...
