go to post Robert Cemper · Apr 9, 2019 OK.StorageTo../..ToStorage only works in persistent classes where you move content from/to globals.No chance without storage. It doesn't get called in Registered Classes and not when the object wasn't saved.see my test with %Persistentset obj=##class(Test.String).%New()write obj.prop ;nothing loaded yetset obj.prop=77 write obj.prop ; unchanged as neither stored nor loaded77do obj.%Save(),obj,%Reload() ; force reload to trigger StorageToLogicalwrite obj.prop ; and here we gopropThis proves that there is limited use of the approach.
go to post Robert Cemper · Apr 8, 2019 I could imagine inheriting standard data types for a customized data type and then adding methods LogicalToStorage and StorageToLogical similar as LogicalToObs, ....So your manipulations happen on the way from Global to the local variable.Additional Parameters eventually may control the generated code.It's just a vague idea.
go to post Robert Cemper · Apr 8, 2019 Ken Olson , the founder of DEC (Digital Equipment Corp.) was famous for its statement:"I can't imagine any good reason for someone to have a computer at his home" Similar in the late 1950ies IBM estimated the worldwide market for computers of 15..30 systems in total.So lack of phantasy what could be in the future is quite common also for very successful people and companies.
go to post Robert Cemper · Apr 6, 2019 inside &SQL() only SQL compatible code is allowedso $ZDT($H,3,1,3) is not known in SQLyou may doset %myts=$ZDT($H,3,1,3), %tx=tx&sql(SELECT {fn TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_HOUR,:%myts,:%tx)})mind the colon :%myts and :%tx to pass global accessible variables to embedded SQL
go to post Robert Cemper · Apr 1, 2019 you better not change %CSP.Login but make a personal copy and change this404 = HTTP page not found. Most likely you put your copy to the wrong directory or namespace And then you have to put the reference in MgmtPortal Security-> WebApplications as Login page:Again with the correct namespace and the correct directory.

go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 27, 2019 @Aleksandar Kovacevic ISC Engineering & Support has this information and also appropriate tools for analysis.You better contact them directly in Cambridge.@Dmitry Maslennikov : Excellent explanation
go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 26, 2019 can't import %routines which I need. Without any special mapping, %routines are stored in SYSLIB. (except %z*,%Z*)Mount SYSLIB (default: read-only) as Read/Write and you can load your %routines. Needless to mention that you better not overwrite already existing %routines.The effects could be unpredictable.
go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 26, 2019 As you describe it I'd create a nice BAT file that you execute.It coud be static or created ad hoc just by writing it from CachéAnd then execute it using $ZF(-1...) ,$zf(-2....) or CPIPE Though Caché has powerful utilities around %File class you will be faster that way[based on ~40 yrs of M]
go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 21, 2019 to create your own Login Page you best start with Class %CSP.Login and adapt it to your specific needs.defaulting toand then you add the new Login Page to Security-> WebApplications

go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 11, 2019 that's wrong ! "will execute nothing, " if conditionSets the system variable $TEST. And this was and still is a widely used way of signaling between routines and functions.And millions lines of existing code rely on its proper use.I come back to an earlier comment: Really learning the language is definitely an advantage.
go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 11, 2019 returning to dotted subroutines would be really bad. Though they are still around in %SYS. on the other hand, the flexibility of the language allows a broad range of personal styles.knowing them enabled me in the past (amongst my customers ) to identify the author of a routinejust by his style with a hit rate of >75%.

go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 11, 2019 Alexej,if you don't care about maintenance effort the most exact pointer is preferable.As you may see from Ensemble the number of entries in the mapping table is of no importance.With modern hardware, saving memory is of no importance anymore.
go to post Robert Cemper · Mar 10, 2019 I remember times when new programmers learned from their masters to use no matter whatprogramming language in her full beauty and elegance with all its features.no matter if this was Assembler/360 or Macro32 or C, C++, C# or Bliss or PL/1 or Fortran, Algol, .... [list almost unlimitted]All of them had their tricks and open and hidden features that inspired the creativity of developersand allowed them to create artwork instead of stereotypic formulated phrases. By this approach,developers get degraded from architects to monotone brick assemblers."users unfamiliar with the language" I'd recommend they should learn it to understand it before touching it.If I want to read the Правда I have to learn Cyrillic characters and the Russian language to understand it.Nobody would accept any request for Latin letters.
