go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 27, 2016 This is a very nice and well produced video. But it jumps into explaining about how OAuth works without every stating what OAuth is. It assumes that whoever watches the video knows what OAuth is.It would be nice to have a paragraph or two just explaining what this application is.It is not my intention to throw stones, but this seems to be a pattern in InterSystems documentation, explaining how something works without first explaining what it is. I guess they assume if they explain how it works, we will understand what it is. Not necessarily so.I know I am going to get hammered for this, but it is true.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 25, 2016 Alexey,"Poor newbies... their brains might explode of such amount of methods to do such simple thing."Well said! We do give them a number of choices.But I think that is a good thing, not a bad thing.That is how we learn.Thanks for chiming in.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 25, 2016 I thought I did mention the InterSystems documentation in my post.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 25, 2016 Newbie is not slang and I don't feel it is derogatory or insulting.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 25, 2016 Will you change newbie corner articles to beginner's corner ?--not at this time
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 23, 2016 I have this same problem on Windows 10, and it can and does mess up Cache.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 19, 2016 Herman, very nice, thank you.If you have no objection, may I use this in a subsequent NewBie's Corner? To the Developer Community as a whole,One of the reasons I show older techniques is that many times NewBies go into a group with older standards and ways of doing things. The NewBie needs to know the current techniques but also need to understand the older ways of doing thing. It is not much use to the NewBie to know all the current methods but cannot understand older style code.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 19, 2016 Rob, thank you for your pointer, which helps in understanding Globals.I have several sessions prepared for Global access, and this is just my first one.I try to keep each session small and straight forward, so not overwhelm the reader.Also, diagrams are difficult to construct using this tool provided.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 18, 2016 Herman,Thank you for your comment. But, like I said: "This is not the only method of traversing a Global. I will show different methods of traversing the Global in upcoming sessions."However, if you have a favorite method of traversing a Global, please show us! I would love to see your 'traditional' For-loop.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 16, 2016 Laura, this is a conversation about CACHÉ and related topics.I am not sure your questions belong here.Unless I am missing something here?
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 15, 2016 Caché ObjectScript is the programming language for Caché. MUMPS is both a programming language and a database.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 13, 2016 I'm not sure exactly what you're asking here; if there are more specific questions, please let us know.ditto!What is being asked here?Perhaps you could start by defining for yourself:What are properties?What are methods?What are objects?before you start asking about relaltionships.There is some good basic information available in the documentation, start there.There is also some good online learning available, see the tag on online learning.Then there are the NewBie posts.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 13, 2016 The Alt 0233 seldom works for me. Like in this reply. Neither does Alt+e.
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 10, 2016 The Certification Program is briefly discussed on pages 120 and 121 in the book Caché and MUMPS - Part II
go to post Mike Kadow · Sep 10, 2016 This question is discussed in NewBie's Corner Session 18 Caché or Cache.
