If an index has never been used (or not for a long time), is it really necessary to use hard drive storage for the index? After a sufficiently long time has passed, it seems like it would be possible to purge storage of index data. The index would...

AntiMatter Code accelerator

SQL Engines employ "query rewrite" to effect a more efficient query to supplement user expertise or application knowledge. Can Mac / Int code generated by Classes be accelerated in a similar way? Beyond locating inefficient and discouraged code an...

Reinstate Studio as a fully supported code editor

Studio is a focused no-nonsense COS/CSP code editor.Although I like VS Code a lot for other programming languages, I find it overkill to just edit IRIS classes and routines. I also like the idea of a dedicated editor: for instance I use PyCharm fo...

Add legitimate special symbol-separator for ObjectScript variable names

If I have a meaningful variable in languages like Python it is very convenient to use _ as a word separator. E.g. this_is_an_sql_that_causes_an_error="SELECT * FROM TABLE" in IRIS there are no special symbols allowed as separators. So the variable...

Interoperability Wizard

Should be possible to build a basic production or process based on simple options. For instance if I just want to import a CSV file and populate a generated class then all I need to supply is a name and a file source.
