Vpim talk - Oct 2007 - problem with (french) localisation

hey all,

here is my script taken from the examples :

----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require ''vpim/vcard''
require ''vpim/icalendar''

$in  = ARGV.first ? File.open(ARGV.shift) : $stdin
$out = ARGV.first ? File.open(ARGV.shift, ''w'') : $stdout

cal = Vpim::Icalendar.create

Vpim::Vcard.decode($in).each do |card|
   if card.birthday
     cal.push Vpim::Icalendar::Vevent.create_yearly(
       card.birthday,
       "Birthday for #{card[''fn''].strip}"
       )
     $stderr.puts "#{card[''fn'']} -> bday
#{cal.events.last.dtstart}"
   end
end

puts cal.encode
----------------------------------------------------------------


calling it by :

./vcf-to-ics.rb Anais.vcf Anais.ics

with "Anais.vcf" in the same folder.


then, i get an error :

~/work/Ruby/vpim-0.9/essais%> ./vcf-to-ics.rb Anais.vcf Anais.ics
./vcf-to-ics.rb:12: undefined method `birthday'' for
#<Vpim::Vcard:0x10d81c0> (NoMethodError)
         from ./vcf-to-ics.rb:11:in `each''
         from ./vcf-to-ics.rb:11

the vCard i''ve exported being with a birthday field, name in french :
"date de naissance"

however the vCard itself is exported in english the birthday line of  
it :

BDAY;value=date:1979-06-16

do you think this could be the prob (ie french localisation of
AddressBook) ???

vest,

Yvon
