Dear all great developers. I wonder if there is any work being done or thoughts being shared regarding prepared SQL statements. Currently I am in heavy need of tuning SQL INSERTS that insert large (3MB) images into blobs. I am using rails 2.3.5 with postgres adapter and pg driver. Any information would be appreciated.

Hi all, I wanted to draw some attention to a couple of very small multibyte-related patches I believe should be included before Rails 3.0 RC1: * Use String#bytesize rather than String#length in exception templates: This is a simple case where string length is checked, but bytes is needed, so it breaks with string with multibyte chars.

I''m testing ruby-head through rvm but can''t get ''ação''.mb_chars.upcase == ''AÇÃO''... I get ''AçãO'' instead... This happens both for Rails 2.3.5 and Rails 3 beta 3... How can I get upcase to work correctly? Thanks in advance, Rodrigo. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby

Along the same lines as the default javascript library discussion [1], why don''t we switch the default test library to RSpec? The stats [2] posted by Xaviar in the other thread seem to support that RSpec is the preferred way to test.

Hello, I''d like to ask for some feedback on a patch I just submitted. The patch improves the reliability of ActiveSupport::Inflector.transliterate, which currently does not handle many characters from Danish, Swedish, Icelandic, Polish and other European languages. This is because the current code relies upon UTF-8 decomposition, but many common characters do not in fact decompose to

HI all, A patch of mine from a few weeks ago made String#mb_chars use a proxy class for 1.9.x as well as 1.8. This proxy overrode some methods that were buggy in 1.9.1. but that work in 1.9.2. Since Rails officially now only supports 1.8.7 and 1.9.2, these methods should definitely no longer be overridden. Here''s the LH ticket:

Hi all, I recently encountered a problem in my FriendlyId plugin where a belongs_to association unexpectedly failed to load because a user was using state_machine and a default scope to make only "active" records return by default. It seems logical to allow associations to be specifed as "unscoped" in order to bypass any default scopes. Conceptually I see this as similar to

Hi all, In response to Rodrigo Rosas''s message about mb_chars.upcase not giving the expected result on 1.9, I''ve done some work in a fork to make String#mb_chars always return an instance of a proxy class, both with Ruby 1.8 and Ruby 1.9. The end result of the patch is (hopefully) to make Rails'' multibyte functionality behave the same way in 1.8.7 and 1.9.x.
