When writing Ruby you have the option to end the file early with __END__. Anything after the __END__ is assigned to a constant called DATA which is available within the file. I recently tried using this in Rails and it didn''t work. Instead I get an uninitialized constant exception. Anyone know why? Has it been disabled in Rails? thanks Gavin

Has anyone seen the below error before? It appears to only occur when Puppet runs automatically (i.e. a "puppetd --test" doesn''t cause it). I have recently installed new Ruby rpms on the server and I''m guessing that I may have left out something when I built the RPMS (based on FC7 SRPM). > -----Original Message----- > From: report@melrhweb1.nmh-au

since http://nqxml.sourceforge.net/ also recommends that we switch to use rexml which is shipped with ruby? If there are plans for it but no developers, I might take it up as an exercise to learn the internals of wxruby-swig. Cheers, Phuah Yee Keat

Hi all. I''m having trouble getting REXML to play nicely with an RSS feed that uses an encoding type called WINDOWS-1250. My application works when I comment out the references to the lines that utilize the REXML library.

Hello all, I''m trying to use the new ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone from Edge. The problem seems to be that I have a several-action process to create a Booking. This Booking is stored in the session (session[:booking] = @booking) throughout the actions until the last action is reached and the record is saved to the DB. Using TimeWithZone seems to be producing errors when trying to

Hi, I need to do some screen scraping and I''ve spent a couple hour getting htmltools and rexml do the right thing.

We have some code that uses REXML, that when executed outside of Rails as a standalone rb file, runs fine. Once we run the code inside of Rails, it is dog slow. I know REXML is slow, buggy, sucks, etc., but my question is what cause the performance to degrade like that.

Not really a solution, but this has to be a classic example of PHP- programmer-bass-ackwardness. They''re already writing to an extensible serialization format (XML) but then just whack language-specific serialized data in instead. That''s right up there with the HTTP-over- SOAP-over-HTTP stuff I''ve seen floating around... --Matt Jones On Sep 24, 9:14 am, Andy
