SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables the deployment of compiled ObjectScript code to customer databases without requiring recompilation on the customer's end, streamlining the delivery of updates and new features.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Code Packaging: Packages compiled classes, routines, and globals into a single deployable file.
  • Version Control: Allows for the deployment of code that is independent of the source code's compilation state on the target system.
  • Use Case: A software vendor can use this skill to deliver a new version of their application's backend code to a client's production environment without disrupting ongoing operations or requiring the client to have the development environment set up.

Quick Start

Use the Add Compiled Code to Customer Databases skill to deploy the project 'myproject' to the file 'c:\deploy\myproject.xml'.

Frequently Asked Questions about Adding Compiled Code to Customer Databases

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy compiled ObjectScript code to an InterSystems IRIS customer database?▼

To deploy compiled ObjectScript code to an InterSystems IRIS database, package classes, routines, and globals into a distributable file using the %Studio.Project class method DeployToFile().

Can I deliver InterSystems IRIS updates without recompiling code on the customer's production server?▼

Yes, you can deliver updates without recompiling on the customer's server by packaging compiled code into a single deployable file, streamlining delivery without requiring a local development environment.

How does the InstallFromFile method work for packaging InterSystems IRIS projects?▼

The InstallFromFile method installs the packaged compiled classes, routines, and globals from the distributable file into the target InterSystems IRIS environment, ensuring version consistency between systems.

What is the best way to maintain version consistency for ObjectScript deployments across development and production?▼

The best way to maintain version consistency for ObjectScript deployments is packaging compiled code into a distributable file, which makes the deployment independent of the target system's source code compilation state.

Does deploying compiled code to customer databases require specific InterSystems IRIS dependencies?▼

Deploying compiled code requires the InterSystems IRIS environment and utilizes built-in %Studio.Project class methods to handle the packaging and installation of the distributable file.

When should I package compiled ObjectScript classes and routines instead of deploying source code?▼

You should package compiled ObjectScript classes and routines when delivering application backend updates to a client's production environment, avoiding operational disruptions and removing the need for client-side compilation.
