Please allow me to introduce you to a new way of interacting with IPM (InterSystems Package Manager), also known as ZPM,directly from inside Visual Studio Code.
Since version 1.93 of VS Code, the “import and compile” process has been very slow (more than an hour). Have you encountered this issue and do you know how to resolve it?
On 2024-08-29, the team released Language Server v2.6.0, which includes more improvements for code completion (aka intellisense). That means that #dim, while still useful, is hardly necessary anymore. That's a good thing in my opinion.
I'm trying to make some use of AI to help with coding. To achieve this I've moved to VS Code linking to a cache instance, and installed the "Cody" extension from Sourcegraph that talks to Claude Sonnet.
Since version 2.12.6 of "Intersystems ObjectScript" extension in VS Code, the compile process force the EOF automatically to LF. Have you encountered this issue and do you know how to resolve it?

If you are using the client-side development paradigm (i.e. editing code in local files that get imported and compiled onto the IRIS server your `objectscript.conn` settings point to) you can now use IPM in VS Code to manage the packages in your IRIS target by launching it from the Explorer view.
