This was more to figure out the proper way to do this in order for tracking for the badge, etc on the G.M. platform. It makes sense that it needs to originate in a challenge (and than you to Olga for pointing that out).
I don't think that just having a form on the D.C. to invite a friend necessarily makes sense, as anyone can just shoot a friend an email with the link. If others would like to see this as a new feature I won't object though.
Thank you @Olga Zavrazhnova! I knew I had seen it somewhere at some point. I just had a conversation with a new colleague yesterday about the value of the D.C. and Global Masters, so I will send her an invite :)
"Invite your colleague to Developer Community" - is there a formal way to do this via the D.C. interface? I looked around and couldn't seem to find an 'invite a friend' option or anything like that. I have some colleagues whom I think would benefit from getting involved in the D.C. (CC: @Anastasia Dyubaylo / @Evgeny Shvarov )
I thought that Windows containers still have issues? Or is Windows on Docker at full parity now with Linux on Docker?
Thanks Bob - that's a great reference to be aware of (I hadn't seen it in the docs before)
@Julian.Matthews7786 - it is never too late :) Since you know the exact version that you were upgrading from / to, I think you're in the best position to still report this as a bug to the WRC. They can then test to see if it's still an issue on the latest versions and they can log an internal bug if that is that case. I would encourage you to still take a little time and ensure it is officially logged.
did you report this as a bug to Support? it seems to me that this value should always persist since an upgrade shouldn't change the function of the environment
great! thank you for letting us know the solution :)
very helpful :)
@John Murray - the fix did go out last week and was just re-tested this morning, so you must be hitting something different. Please click on "Submit Feedback" in the Cloud Portal and include the specific details of what you are seeing and Support will take a look at why your attempts are still failing and will work with you directly.
@John Murray - I will reach out internally and will let you know
In that case, install Python on your machine with the library you want to use, and call $zf(-100) to execute your python script. Later when you upgrade your environment you can move to using embedded Python directly.
Congrats to the winners :)
This sounds like a classic example of leveraging embedded Python in IRIS to make use of the very large volume of python libraries that do just about anything :) Here is an article that I found on a quick Google search on how to do this in Python:
https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/convert-pdf-to-image-using-python/
You could just leverage the Python capabilities of InterSystems IRIS to make use of how this problem has been solved in Python!
always a pleasure John :)
@John Murray - I was just informed that the cloud team is aware of the issue and they plan to push a fix this AM. No need to contact Support on this one :)
John - FYI ... you can reach out to Support to help with issues like this. Sounds to me like a bug that they we would want to jump on quickly. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!!
Thank you for all of your hard work ... it's amazing to see how far this ecosystem has come in the past couple of years :)
thank you for sharing the learning John!
+1 - this is a very useful way to instrument your code.
+1 to the Source Control recommendation
Ahh ... if they need to be used elsewhere then that is a different story.
I forget off the top of my head exactly how this would work, but you could potentially subclass your Org class and just add the parent cardinality relationship. I *think* that should force the extent of the subclass to be embedded in the parent class ( @Dan Pasco?), which should automate the cascading delete for you without impacting the Orgs stored independently.
Thanks Dan - it looks like that would be incredibly useful :)
Thank you @Bernd Mueller - can you point me to which types of things would necessitate the restart of the hosting webserver?
Thanks chad - scripting automatic review failure is more involved than just scripting the calling of the API at deployment time (and not relying on RELOAD=1) so we'd probably go that route.
If RELOAD = null is hardcoded for immediate removal than probably relying on that would be the more risky approach to change control in this case. So we'd likely rely on "Set status = %CSP.Mgr.GatewayMgr.ActivateCSPIni()" for automation.
@Dan Pasco - anytime I see you respond to a D.C. question I always take the time to read it carefully as I know I will definitely learn something (and this response did not disappoint!) Quick question - what is the use of $$$QN() as I can't find it in the docs?
I think you should consider publishing this as a standalone article.
Great samples Joel and right to the point! (as usual ;) )
congrats to the winners!!
thank you for the excellent summary! I recommend that you create a standalone article highlighting what you have learned.
@Hannah Sullivan ... does Organizations have to be a list? If it is a Parent/Child relationship then I believe the children are stored by default in the extent of the parent so deletion of the parent automatically deletes the children.
