What locale are you using? I use "rusw".

Try to do the following in SMP:

update MSDS_Serenity.KitlabelAssoc set PackingTimeSpent=35000 where label='00007IT4'

then

select

  PackingTimeSpent,
  %internal(PackingTimeSpent) ptsLOGICAL,
  %external(PackingTimeSpent) ptsDISPLAY,
  %odbcout(PackingTimeSpent)  ptsODBC

from MSDS_Serenity.KitlabelAssoc where label='00007IT4'

What are your results?

I have the following displayed (for DISPLAY mode):

PackingTimeSpent = 09:43:20
ptsLOGICAL = 35000
ptsDISPLAY = 09:43:20
ptsODBC = 09:43:20

Now everything is OK, thanks.

Notes on Indices Defined in Classes

When working with indices in class definitions, here are some points to keep in mind:

• Index definitions are only inherited from the primary (first) superclass.
• ...

Class dc.Aclass [ Abstract ]
{

Index idxF On f;

Property f As %Integer;

}

Class dc.test Extends (dc.Aclass, %Persistent) [ ClassType = persistent ]
{

ClassMethod Test()
{
  k ^dc.testD,^dc.testI
  
  &sql(insert into dc.test(f) values(30))
  &sql(insert into dc.test(f) values(303))
  
  zw ^dc.testD,^dc.testI
}

}

Output:

USER>d ##class(dc.test).Test()
^dc.testD=2
^dc.testD(1)=$lb("",30)
^dc.testD(2)=$lb("",303)
^dc.testI("idxF",30,1)=""
^dc.testI("idxF",303,2)=""

having the field defined as integer would allow selecting avg but running a query in my Zen page wouldn’t show me a time format

If you the field is defined as %Integer or %String, then this is incorrect. The field type must be %Time. In this case, a time will be stored in the database as number, and the query will display the time as a string.

Here is a small example:

select 166 seconds,%external(cast(+166.5 as TIME)) "avg"

Output:

seconds = 166
avg = 00:02:46

Class dc.test Extends %Persistent
{

Property t As %Time;

ClassMethod Test()
{
  
  d ..%KillExtent()
  
  &sql(insert into dc.test(t) values(30))
  &sql(insert into dc.test(t) values(303))
  
  zw ^dc.testD

  w !
  
  s st=##class(%SQL.Statement).%New()
  s st.%SelectMode=2
  d st.%ExecDirect(.st,"select t, %internal(t) tINT, %external(t) tSTR, avg(t) average,CAST(+avg(t) as TIME) avgSTR from dc.test").%Display()

  ; or
  w !!
  
  d ##class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirect(,"select t, %internal(t) tINT, %external(t) tSTR, avg(t) average,%external(CAST(+avg(t) as TIME)) avgSTR from dc.test").%Display()
}

}

Output:

USER>d ##class(dc.test).Test()
^dc.testD=2
^dc.testD(1)=$lb("",30)
^dc.testD(2)=$lb("",303)

Addition to the above: Passing Arguments By Reference^doc

Addition to the above: Indexing an Embedded Object (%SerialObject) Property^doc

Maybe you will help the trick taken from Storing dynamic object properties larger than 3641144 symbols

I'm not sure if it's %Text at all.

Made a small example:

Class dc.test Extends %Persistent
{

Index mySimilarityIndex On SettingsJSON(KEYS) [ Data = SettingsJSON(ELEMENTS) ];

Property SettingsJSON As %Text(LANGUAGECLASS = "%Text.English", MAXLEN = 3600000, SIMILARITYINDEX = "mySimilarityIndex");

ClassMethod Test()
{
  d ..%KillExtent()
  
  s json=$tr($j("",3600000)," ","0")
  &sql(insert into del.t(SettingsJSON) values(:json))
  
  w $l(json),":",SQLCODE
}

}

Output:
3600000:0

For %Stream.GlobalCharacter cannot use an index, but it can be used for %Text.

UPD: Queries Invoking Free-text Search

Any event that occurs outside of the modal group (such as a mouse click) automatically hides the modal group^proof.

Use Popup windows with modal=yes or Dialogs.

PS: if you really need to use "Model Groups", then you need to do two things for this:

1. override the method onCanEndModalHandler
2. override the method hideGroup(). This is necessary to prohibit the close button in the upper right corner

Class dс.test Extends %ZEN.Component.page
{

XData Contents [ XMLNamespace = "http://www.intersystems.com/zen" ]
{
<page xmlns="http://www.intersystems.com/zen">
  <button caption="Show modal group" onclick="zenPage.show();"/>
  <modalGroup id="mgStatic" groupTitle="Popup">
    <text id="mgText" label="Value:" />
    <button caption="OK" onclick="zenPage.mgBtnClick();"/>
  </modalGroup>
</page>
}

ClientMethod show() [ Language = javascript ]
{
  zenPage.__canClose = false;
  var mg = zen('mgStatic');
  
  mg.onCanEndModalHandler = this.onCanEndModalHandler();
  mg.hideGroup=this.hideGroup;

  mg.show();
}

ClientMethod mgBtnClick() [ Language = javascript ]
{
  zenPage.__canClose=true;
  zen('mgStatic').onCanEndModalHandler=null;

  zenAlert('User entered: ' +  zen('mgText').getValue());
  
  // hide the modal group
  zenPage.endModal();
}

ClientMethod onCanEndModalHandler() [ Language = javascript ]
{
  return true;
}

/// Hide the group.
ClientMethod hideGroup() [ Language = javascript ]
{
  if (!zenPage.__canClose) return;
  
  if (this.groupType == 'dialog') this._canClose = true;
  var div = this.getFloatingDiv();
  if (div) {
    div.style.opacity = 0;
  }
  if ((!zenIsHTML5) || (!window.TransitionEnd)) {
    if (!this._closing) {
      zenPage.endModal();
      this._closing = true;
    }
  }
}

}

Hi Ben.

For some reason, only IRIS 2021.1CE is available for Windows, although IRIS 2021.2CE is available for many other operating systems, such as MacOSX.

Is it possible for Windows to update the version to 2021.2 too?

The %BuildIndices() supports partial rebuilding - see parameters pStartID, pEndID
In addition, you can activate/deactivate the index: Building Indices on a READ and WRITE Active System
