Hello! I am developing a rails application in a test environment on Windows XP and recently upgraded to InstantRails 1.5. During the upgrade process, I went to install the latest ferret gem and realized that the latest gem compiled for Windows was 10.9. We upgraded our production environment (Ubuntu) to 11.1-rc2 successfully, but wanted to find out if we were going to run into any problems conducting our testing with 10.9 and deploying into the 11.1-rc2 production environment. If we were, is there anyone that has compiled a win32 binary of the 11.1-rc2 gem? Thanks! --------------------------------- Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

I''ve just released 0.11.2-rc3. I''ll give it 24hours and if there are no serious issues I''ll compile a win32 gem. Cheers, Dave -- Dave Balmain http://www.davebalmain.com/

There are no major API changes between the two versions you are using so if your app is working with 0.10.9 then it should work with 0.11.2. There are however differences in the index file format so you can''t copy the index across and 0.10.9 has a lot more bugs than 0.11.2. But for the short term you should be fine. -- Dave Balmain http://www.davebalmain.com/
Thanks for the quick response, Dave. I appreciate it -- it saved us tons of time with some potential debugging/environment setups. I''ll let anyone know if we run into any errors while testing the new win32 gem upon its release as well.

Hello! I just wanted to follow up on this previous post of mine, we''ve noticed that there have been several updates to the gem. I have two quick questions. Is there a new win32 gem (since v10.9) on its way -- if so, when? and 2. If we continue to develop with our v10.9 gem on our windows XP laptops and then deploy to a unix environment that'' would be using the latest gem (11.3+), should all of our syntax, etc work (I understand that the indices would be built differently, but that''s fine)? Thanks again!

So far all my 0.10 code has worked with 0.11 fine. from the announcement for 0.11.0: "I''ve just released Ferret 0.11.0 which is the first release candidate for Ferret 1.0. This release has no new features to the API but it does fix some very major bugs." "Some of these fixes mean that the current version of Ferret is not backwards compatible. If you install the latest version you will need to rebuild your index from scratch." John.
