go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 20, 2023 Yes, this will work. But you also need to +1 for the "top" of the array to indicate the amount of params. I'd do the following: set arr($I(arr))=value in this case $I will increment the value at arr as arr=arr+1, and return it to let you enter the value of a new param
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 20, 2023 They are "special" :) and called locals for variables and globals for persisted variables. in case if you are in debug you can always print out the array with zwrite array_name. E.g. in your case: USER>zw args will print out all the data it contains. useful for understanding and debugging.
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 18, 2023 Please, give VSCode a try. Regarding of extensions, you can give students a repository with .vscode/extensions.json, that will already contain examples. E.g. here is how my extensions.json looks like: { "recommendations": [ "eamodio.gitlens", "georgejames.gjlocate", "github.copilot", "intersystems-community.servermanager", "intersystems-community.sqltools-intersystems-driver", "intersystems-community.vscode-objectscript", "intersystems.language-server", "mohsen1.prettify-json", "ms-azuretools.vscode-docker", "ms-python.python", "ms-python.vscode-pylance", "ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers" ] } This will not install extensions automatically, but they will be shown as recommended for the workspace, like that: Here is the template they can start from and here is an example extensions.json file.
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 16, 2023 thank you, @Pravin Barton ! Any feedback and issues are welcome! And kudos to @Gevorg Arutiunian who introduced it!
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 16, 2023 Thanks Brett! I will add the support of: Docker Git source control Github/Gitlub interactive plugins Embedded Python Co-pilot (when VScode writes ObjectScript for you instead of you) Full-functional IRIS Terminal And options to use 3rd-party plugins, e.g. from George James, @John Murray mentioned earlier.
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 16, 2023 Thanks @Michael Angeleri ! Do you plan to write a similar article related to Visual Studio Code? Just connecting it to the recent announcement.
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 16, 2023 What is the benefit of exporting to XML vs exporting to CLS?
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 15, 2023 Thanks Tim! How do you debug a particular unit test in VSCode?
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 14, 2023 @Alex Woodhead , do you know by a chance why unittest methods are instance methods but not classmethods? Could it be converted to classmethods or provided the option to do that?
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 14, 2023 In fact there is a handy way to run all the tests via: zpm "test module-name" But, I'd love to see debugging of it
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 14, 2023 Thanks Alex. See the following: USER>Do ##class(%UnitTest.Manager).DebugRunTestCase("", "dc.irisbi.unittests.TestBI", "", "TestPivots") (root) begins ...LogStateStatus:0:Finding directories: ERROR #5007: Directory name '/usr/irissys/mgr/user/u:/internal/testing/unit_tests/' is invalid <<==== **FAILED** (root)::
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 12, 2023 Hi @Mikko Taittonen! Why would you need XML export for classes/routines? Why not UDL? UDL is much more readable?
go to post Evgeny Shvarov · May 2, 2023 Maybe ZPM uninstall is not ideal. At the moment ZPM is just an open-source app that can be installed into IRIS. And maybe it doesn't clearly uninstall itself. What is the business goal of the exercise? To test ZPM or to test IRIS on leakages?
