Let's pretend you are working on a project where you may be retrieving a URL for some purpose and you have the need to be easily able to parse apart that URL to get the various components that make up the URL.
Outlined below is an example of how to check if a directory exists:
Set directoryName="c:\temp\nosuchdir"
/* Check for existence of a directory - Return Value: 0 - directory does not exist; 1 - directory does exist */
Set directoryExists=##class(%File).DirectoryExists(directoryName)
If ('directoryExists) // do the processing for when a directory does not exist
Outlined below is an example of how to check if a file exists:
How do I change my login information for Cache Studio if I clicked the checkbox to automatically save my login info so I do not have to enter my username/password every time I open Studio?
We're developing Ensemble PoC and one day our frontend developer (who doesn't have Ensemble production running) said that Populate just doesn't cut it and he needs to see the real data. He needed only one object, but the problem was - it's a big object. Still, I checked ids of everything related and wrote this command (parts omitted, but you get the idea):
as described in How to post an article from Word or Google Docs, you can use the Paste from Word button to paste content you have copied from a Word or Google Docs document into a Developer Community post.
this worked well for me pasting from Word 10 documents, and retained most (though not all) of my Word formatting. i did have one problem, however, and wanted to pass on my workaround.
This short article was motivated by a problem of one of my customers. They use Ensemble to integrate many systems, some of them use just plain files.
So they naturally selected File Outbound Adapter to write into target file. Things were running smoothly for years, until recently, when the volume of data being written to the file reached large size of tens of megabytes. The operation took around half an hour to complete, causing timing problems where subsequent operations within the process had to wait, and third party system was not happy to wait so long.
Caché mirroring is a reliable, inexpensive and easy to implement high availability and disaster recovery solution for Caché and Ensemble-based applications. This article provides an overview of recommended procedures for dealing with a variety of planned and unplanned mirror outage scenarios.
I was recently troubleshooting a problem on a Linux (RHEL) instance of 2016.1 at a site. For policy reasons their sysadmins wanted to update the Caché installation so it used network accounts for its cacheusr and iscagent users and groups instead of the locally-created ones that had been set up during original install of Caché.
To do this they ran various commands including chown
Afterwards non-root users couldn't obtain a terminal session using the csession command. Instead they receive this message:
Process-private Globals can be used as a data global in storage definition. That way, each process can have its own objects for the class with ppg storage. For example lets define a pool, which can:
(Possibly?) little-known fact: It's possible to use $ListBuild on the left hand side of the equals sign in a set command to extract multiple list values at once:
set $ListBuild(several,individual,variables) = list
