go to post Ben Spead · May 3, 2023 may I ask why you would want to do this? What is the downside of the methods all being in the same class? I don't think there is any way of doing this other than manually. I think you'll need to create a new class and then copy the method definition into the new class.
go to post Ben Spead · May 1, 2023 Thank you @Matthew Giesmann !! I know a lot of work went into this effort, and that our beta testers have been using this successfully for many months. Everyone - please make sure to provide feedback, especially if you see any issues. After a period of dual-use we will be retiring the old UI completely so if there are reasons users need to keep using the old UI for some reason we need to hear about the details ASAP.
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 25, 2023 Thank you @Gertjan Klein - that did it! (note, I fixed the missing ) in my example ... obviously I wrote that in my browser and not my IDE ;) )
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 21, 2023 Are you exporting it as OBJ-only, or are you okay exporting it for a previous version which they will then load into their instance and compile? E.g. if you use Do $System.OBJ.SetQualifiers("/exportversion=2017.2") it will export the code in Caché 2017.2 format. *However* this will not catch if you use syntax or updated APIs which were not supported in 2017.2. You should really get a copy of the target version of software from the WRC (kits or containers) and at least do a compilation test there.
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 17, 2023 wow - what an incredibly in-depth tutorial! thank you @Yuri Marx for the time you took putting this together for the Community!
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 13, 2023 very nice article! Nice to see this topic addressed to raise awareness with new users on how this works :)
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 12, 2023 thanks for the input Robert ... %All is powerful but won't work for me in this scenario.
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 12, 2023 Thanks Clark - this is one of the approaches I hadn't thought of previously
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 12, 2023 We are using %ALL for some other things but unfortunately it won't apply in this case. Specifically, this is for a HS instance where we need to move auto-created classes into a new routine DB. So I can't add a mapping for each and every package (300 packages).
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 12, 2023 thanks Tim - this is along the lines of what I was thinking about. Much appreciated!
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 12, 2023 Thanks Chad - I think that this would be the lowest impact overhead approach if I don't copy the definitions directly via a clone or the globals
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 12, 2023 Thanks Matt, I am trying to avoid using the OS as the middle-man in this case as we have 300+ namespaces to do this on and so should be scripted. I can create a %Method that would do this but was hoping for a quick command that could just do the transfer
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 11, 2023 seriously! it's amazing how much knowledge there is to be gleaned within this community :)
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 11, 2023 Bravo gentlemen!! thank you for your continued investment in our community :)
go to post Ben Spead · Apr 10, 2023 Another very cool aspect of the feature :) So it looks like this is just a built-in alias which ships with InterSystems IRIS.
