Hello everyone,

I’m using VS Code with the InterSystems ObjectScript extension and I want to keep my local folder (client-side) as the “source of truth” while still using the built-in Server Source Control features (diff, stage, commit, etc.) against my IRIS/Ensemble instance.

So far:

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.

I added extra OBX segments and I need to renumber OBX 4 so they are sequential.

To VSCode experts - see the screenshot. When right-click on a method with intentions to proceed to the source code:

I am always confused about what to choose: declaration or definition. What is the difference?

I was using VSCode to edit a DTL because it seemed easier to copy/paste code from parts of the DTL I was editing. I tried to add <sql> tag and code to call a SELECT statement, but when I compiled I got the following error...

ERROR <Ens>ErrInvalidDTL: Invalid DTL

> ERROR #5490: Error running generator for method 'GetSourceDocType:osuwmc.Epic.MFN.DTL.EpicMFN949002Normalization'

Hi All,

In my DB, it has more than 10,000 files. I tried to search for a particular file (mac), but there is no search option to find it. Can you help me find that option to search for a file?

Hello All,

I'm new to InterSystems, just wanted to check if we can configure the Visual Studio code to use it as Studio for Intersystems development. I tried following the instructions in few posts but nothing worked. Please guide me to setup this

Hi.
This is my first post on this forum; I've tried to open an issue on the official repo , but it seems inactive from more than a year, so I can't receive an answer from there.
I would like to know if someone use that extension and know how to use it when working server-side on an IRIS server.
I have no problem when coding on a file saved locally.
Thanks in advance

Hi,

We are currently switching from Studio to VSCode and central GIT with Serverside Development and have a few start problems.
I have set up a system with Git.

The baseline commit including remote push works.

But now I have a problem with the VSCode. When I create and compile a new class, it saves it correctly. But if I want to make further changes to the class, it saves the class and loads it again with the previous status. So the changes I made are gone again.

Hi, I'm trying to use the iris python package to create a connection to and Iris Health instance (Docker Container), but getting and error. I can login to the instance using the UI with the same uname/password but unable to create the python connection. Any suggestions?

conn = iris.connect("testserver",52222,"%SYS","username","password")

After executing this I get an exception trap
An error occurred: Invalid Message Count: expected: 1 got: 825110831

I have installed three plugins on VS Code: Intersystems Language Server: v2.3.6, Intersystems ObjectScript: v2.10.5, and Intersystems Server Manager: v3.6.2. I connected to the Caché database and connected a workspace to the InterSystems server. Then I edited the code locally on my client machine.

So being forced to use VSCode out of the box for a new Community install I've hit a small problem, documentation hasn't helped and its a simple problem.

How do I enable auto complete and the property viewer in creating a new .MAC?

So I've created "test.mac" and 'assume' can't remember the method name to open a file (for example), typing

"s f=##class(%Library.File). " in Studio would bring up the methods of %Library.File so I could click the appropriate one, VSCode does not do this (and also didn't show the classes under %Library).

Hi All,

I'm trying to connect to an IRIS instance using VSCode, the problem is, there are 2 IRIS instances installed on this server, published by the same hostname using https (port 443) under 2 different subfolders (e.g., iris.demo.com/base & iris.demo.com/test).

When connecting via studio, I was able to connect by using the hostname (e.g., iris.demo.com) and specifying the super server port, while when connecting through VSCode, when specifying the web server port 443, the connection is always defaulted to one of the instance.

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