UPDATE: this is now working again.

Can we use iknow in the Cache tool means if i don't have deepsee tool to work on like for doing some sample programs. Because i don't have deepsee tool with me?

And is there any open source for downloading deepsee? 

This is a translation of the following article. Thanks [@Evgeny Shvarov] for the help in translation.

This post is also available on Habrahabr^ru.

The post was inspired by this Habrahabr article: Interval-associative array^ru→en.

Since the original implementation relies on Python slices, the Caché public may find the following article useful: Everything you wanted to know about slices^ru→en.

Note: Please note that the exact functional equivalent of Python slices has never been implemented in Caché, since this functionality has never been required.

All right, let’s cut to the chase and take a look at some examples.

Hi,

I would like to retrieve the O.S version (Windows or Unix) and Cache installed directory.

which COS apis should I use ?

Thanks for your help.

I would like  to invoke some unix/windows commands from COS, any API could do that?

Also, I would like to set up  some Environment Variables for this process which would execute  the above external command.

Anyway to achieve that?

Thanks for your help.

Hi all,

I trying build a project with .NET and Entity Framework in the Code First method, but Caché return the error " 'VARBINARY' is not a supported type for CAST" when run this sql code:

Hi There

New to the cache sql commands looking for how to create a parameter within a sql statement like with MSSQL is @ and Oracle is : 

What is cache's?

I try to find a function, which generates hash values of columns. In MS SQL Server I can use

select hashbytes('sha2_256', my_column) ...

to create hash values of my_column. Is it possible to use such things in Caché?

Thank you
André

When working at a terminal prompt the %SS routine lets me see what's running on the instance:

USER>d ^%SS

But sometimes I'm only interested in knowing what's running in my namespace. In which case, here's what I use:

USER>d THIS^%SS

Recently I was conducting a remote support session with a site. The desktop they were sharing with me was on a PC configured with German as the native language. Since my German is rather rusty, and virtually non-existent when it comes to computing terms, I was glad to be able to switch the Portal session into English.

This is done from the page that appears when you use the About link:

All I needed to remember was that the About link is the second one, and the language selection dropdown is at the foot of that page.

It is possible to update Cache object property from Python using the following Python code, with import of intersys.pythonbind3:

my_object.set("my_property",["A","B","C"])

However, I am unable to save 2D %List with 2D Python array like the following:

my_object.set("my_property",[["A","B","C"],["1","2","3"]])

I am not sure whether this is Python-Cache bind flaw or design issue. Is there any alternative/ workaround to do the same for above?

Hi, Community!

How do you store the source files of your Caché project? What is the directories structure? What are the benefits?

I prefer the following structure:

/cls/package/subpackage/class.cls

/mac/package/routine.mac

/int/package/routine.int

/inc/macro.inc

/dfi/folder/sample.pivot.dfi

Example

Benefits: 

• folders are packages.
• easy to understand what type of sources are in the project.

What is your approach?

Hi,

I want to attach one local namespace on instance A to the database on instance B.

How could I use ECP to achieve my goal?

Should I config instance B as ECP data server? If so, how could I explicitly specify which database on instance B could be exposed ?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, Community!

And so I continue with publishing of the tasks for the Final round of InterSystems Contest on InterSystems Caché and DeepSee as a part of IT Planet Student Championship in Sochi. This year we had about 2 000 participants in InterSystems Contest.

One of the tasks for the finals was to crack the black box!

Hi all,

I have a non objectscript application connecting to a cache instance via ODBC and one column is a list of serial objects. The output from the query contains a lot of special characters and I'm hoping there's a better way to get this data back so I won't have to perform extensive parsing on the application side.

I've tried using the $ListToString() function, but that didn't help much, probably because the list contains complex objects rather than primitives. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

In Cache Studio there is export class dialog with options "Export current project" and "Include dependent classes".

Is there any way to export class programmatically, but with same effect as if "Include dependent classes" was checked? So that not only the class itself is exported, but also all dependent classes? I know of Export method in %SYSTEM.Obj class, but it only exports the class itself.

Hello,

I have a question related to running an SQL query for range of data.

I am running a query like:

Select A,B from table_name where A>=12345 AND A<=12390

 - Where A and B are my two of the properties under the mentioned table/class definition

- A is an integer property

 Question: The result of the above query does not return me all the values between the mentioned range of integer though I do have all the values in that range. I see that some of the values are missing in result.

Any reason why this query won't work?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Aditi

In addition to its general security, Caché offers SQL security with a granularity of a single row. This is called row-level security. With row-level security, each row holds a list of authorized viewers, which can be either users or roles. By default access is determined at object modification Some time ago I became interested in determining row-level security at runtime. Here's how to implement it.

How can i compare two files using cache program, i need this for unit testing purpose 

I am trying to design a RESTful service that takes a string (with control characters). Does something with that in the logic on the server, then returns a string, which may also have control characters.

Basically the string is a pharmacy claim in a delimited format that uses control characters for those delimiters. The logic on the server will pull the entire claim apart and process it.

I was thinking that a GET method could be uses but I'm used to sending content in JSON format and wondered what other normal RESTful ways there were to do this.

Whenever I try to run a simple query on a production database table, I get a timeout 504 error. I'm using the SQL interface in Ensemble. One of the queries is a simple SELECT TOP 10. Even SELECT COUNT(*) gives a timeout. 

I have tried to run the SQL Runtime Statistics, but this gives me a timeout as well. 

Does anyone have an idea where I might look to find what is causing this? 

Thanks in advance, 

Best regards

Hi,

I only use Caché and CSP, I am making a simple request in CSP page with #call method, and I have to define a callback of this #call method, can I do this?

This is my simple request in CSP page (javascript):

            PainelBordoResource.prototype.obterIndicador = function(requisicaoParametros) {
                let retorno = #call(painelbordo.PainelBordoResource.obterIndicador(angular.toJson(requisicaoParametros)))#;
                return retorno;
            };
