tzinfo-0.3.11 bundled with activesupport-2.1.2 is incomplete
Hi folks, the tzinfo version packaged with rails 2.1.2 is incorrect and missing some files. If you compare the version stored in activesupport/lib/ active_support/vendor/tzinfo-0.3.11 with a fresh gem install of tzinfo-0.3.11, the activesupport-2.1.2 version is missing all the country_code files. (http://github.com/rails/rails/tree/v2.1.2/activesupport/lib/ active_support/vendor/tzinfo-0.3.11/tzinfo) (still seems broken in master: http://github.com/rails/rails/tree/master/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor/tzinfo-0.3.11/tzinfo) This means that if the rails version is loaded up, calling TZInfo::Country.get(''US'').zones fails, while if the standard gem version is loaded, it works. I was explicitly setting, in environment.rb config.gem "tzinfo", :version => ''0.3.10'' but rails 2.1.2 sets 0.3.11, and because I didn''t have that gem installed on my system, it loaded the broken one from activesupport-2.1.2. The way to get all of this to work is to install the 0.3.11 gem and change my environment.rb file to require the 0.3.11 version, and then it loads up the full gem version and bypasses the bad rails 2.1.2 version. But this definitely doesn''t seem like the correct behavior, starting with the bad vendorized tzinfo-0.3.11 gem in activesupport-2.1.2.

Re: tzinfo-0.3.11 bundled with activesupport-2.1.2 is incomplete
Adam, The bundled tzinfo is a slimmed-down version that only includes the classes and zone definitions necessary to support ActiveSupport::TimeZone. This chops ~2.8MB from the size of tzinfo, and hundreds of files, so it seems worth it. But as far as trying to require a complete version of the gem that''s older than the bundled version -- indeed, that wouldn''t work. I agree it''s confusing, given that you''ve declared the explicit version of tzinfo via config.gem. Maybe we could be smarter about how we require bundled libraries in activesupport/lib/vendor.rb -- maybe add logic so that we don''t clobber existing gem requirements?

Re: tzinfo-0.3.11 bundled with activesupport-2.1.2 is incomplete
Isn''t there a method of freezing not just rails, but all gems your project uses? Seems to me that if you''re dealing with an uncooperative host, that''s the route you want to go -- those of us with cooperative hosts would probably rather manage things with gems. Often, that''s unavoidable -- rmagick, for example. Certainly seems odd to be doing this in a support library.

Because it is the only "non-rails" dependency for rails itself. Seems like the root cause of the problem is that rails freeze command is broken, because it does not freeze the entire dependency graph of rails, which includes tzinfo. Instead, the rails freeze command should freeze whatever version of the tzinfo gem is specified by the current version of activesupport. Then, you get all the benefits and no problems: 1.

Re: tzinfo-0.3.11 bundled with activesupport-2.1.2 is incomplete
Please keep in mind, you *can* manage the full Tzinfo gem via config.gem -- the bug you identified only occurs when you try to require a version that''s older than the bundled one. Also, Tzinfo is not the only non-Rails dependency: see the vendor directories in ActionMailer, ActionController and ActiveSupport. Do you suggest that Rails unbundle TMail, Builder, XmlSimple, etc., and add them as dependencies to the rails gem?

Re: tzinfo-0.3.11 bundled with activesupport-2.1.2 is incomplete
Good conversation! Geoff, it sounds like there is not an easy solution except perhaps if you bundle a version like 0.3.11 but rails *requires* 0.3.9, use ~>0.3.9 for the config.gem version rather than always incrementing it to 0.3.11. But that could create additional issues like missing a dependency, etc. If I''m the only one who was bit by this issue, then so be it. But if it keeps coming up, putting the full gem (with the extra 2.6 megs and hundreds of files; yes it is a beast!) into vendor/ doesn''t seem to be all that bad, in this day and age of broadband ;) Thanks guys, Adam On Nov 12, 5:42 am, "Michael Koziarski" <mich...@koziarski.com> wrote:> On Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 3:42 AM, David Masover <d...@3mix.com> wrote: > > On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 7:11 PM, Geoff B <gbues...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >> Also, Tzinfo is not the only non-Rails dependency: see the vendor > >> directories in ActionMailer, ActionController and ActiveSupport.

I do think we should respect a version explicitly specified via config.gem, even if it''s an older version than the bundled one (which we''re not doing right now.) Or at least give feedback that we''re not respecting the user''s declared wishes. I don''t know if this would even be possible -- we''d have to somehow introspect the gem requirements, I guess. Fyi, Rails should be compatible with any tzinfo version in the 0.3.x series (and possibly the 0.2.x series, though I haven''t tested this recently.)

I had tzinfo 0.3.10 installed using rails 2.1.1. that rails version shipped with tzinfo-0.3.9, but it correctly used my config.gem specification and used the 0.3.10 version. The issue arose because I migrated to rails 2.1.2, which came with a partially bundled tzinfo-0.3.11, used that version and ended up breaking my application (thankfully not in production; love those tests!). Chad, I agree with your point about bundling, but at the risk of beating a dead horse, my vote would be to either bundle the full gem (instead of a partial one with broken dependencies) OR do not bundle and just have dependencies (like active-record does on a db-specific gem).

Re: tzinfo-0.3.11 bundled with activesupport-2.1.2 is incomplete
Adam and Chad -- curious to know if this setup would work for you: I pulled together a version of tzinfo that has all the stuff (classes, definitions, indexes) that''s *not* in the slimmed-down ActiveSupport version: http://github.com/gbuesing/tzinfo_completer (works as a plugin: I tried to make a gem of it, but github won''t let me use fileutils in the gemspec) ...seems to work, given my limited testing. With this setup, you can effectively have access to the full gem, and updates to the bundled version won''t break it. Also slims down your app repository a bit, since you don''t have to duplicate tzinfo files that are already bundled in AS. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
