Hi All. When translating a string to in swedish, using HTML codes for å,ä,ö i have a minor problem. Eg: (se.yaml) ui_core_over: Över All I get when calling l(''ui_core_over'') in my view is "Ouml;ver" The leeding & is missing, making the page look silly. The HTML characters works fine as long as it''s not used as the first letter in the string.

I''m running from the trunk, and hitting road blocks no matter which way I attempt to search across multiple indexes. I tried a MultiSearcher, but I can''t pass a string for the search query ms.search "iraq" TypeError: wrong argument type String (expected Data) So I tried creating a QueryParser to pass, but I can''t get the fields from the reader

Hi, I have a model class like so: class Candidate < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :name @@index = FerretConfig::INDEX def self.after_destroy puts "Ferret: after_destroy called" @@index.query_delete("+id:#{self.id} +ferret_class:#{self.class.name}") optimize_index end end But when I delete a record, the after_destroy is never called.

Hi, following the discussion about acts_as_ferret on the Rails mailinglist, there was an issue about transactions, which could result in beind the database and ferret out of sync. I have taken a different approach from acts_as_ferret trying to resolve the transaction problem. Instead of adding things to the ferret index in the model, I have added it in the controller. I have only the create part

I've got a gls formula that's a mix of continuous and ordered variables. I wanted to use gls because I wanted to use the varIdent structure. Anyway, attempts to use "predict.gls" choke with the error that the levels I use are not allowed for one of them -- the first one alphabetically, so I'd guess the second would have the same problem. So I have three linked questions --

Hi Everyone, I have a weired situation where calls in and out are proceessed all right but when I dial *97 Asterisk is literally choking when it comes to announcements like "Password" or "Call from 205-456-2222".

Dear all, Sweave chokes when using "\\" in the path to the Rnw file. Using "/" works fine. The problem is that Eclipse+StatET uses "\\" in the filename.

Hi all This week I have worked with Rails and Ferret to test Ferrets (and Lucenes) capabilities. I decided to make a mixin for ActiveRecord as it seemed the simplest possible solution and I ended up making this into a plugin. For more info on Ferret see: http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/ The plugin is functional but could easily be refined. Anyway I want to share it with you. Regard it as a

Is there any way to set a field name that is different than the method name used to populate it? My example: In Rails, I''m using acts_as_ferret on a Article model that has_many Authors. I want to be able to index authors'' names with each article. Since @article.authors yields an array of Author objects (and not an indexable string), I''ve created this method in my

Hi all, I''m using fuzzy~ queries which can return very poor matches. What is the most elegant way to filter out scores below some threshold? I know that I can do my own thing with find_id_by_contents but I''d like to filter out less relevant results at a lower level so that I can use :limit/:offset for pagination and all that. What am I missing? Thanks, Casey

hello, I am actually indexing thousands of 1ko text documents using ferret and acts_as_ferret, and i face performance problems. I takes me hours to index 20 000 1ko text documents.

Thank you if you have any
