Hi all, I wanted to turn off the messages `creating lame upcase table' or `creating lame upcase table' during getting files from a shared directory using smbclient command. I google'd around and could not get pointers to this. Can I do that? If so, how? Thanks & Regards, Ramprasad B

I would like to announce my plugin Swedish Rails. Rails provide many goodies and helpers for you, but some of these are dependant on your user interface being in english. Date controls, for example. Pluralization is another. And have you ever tried to capitalize a string with Swedish letters in them? Then you know it doesn''t work that well. Until now, that is. You install this

Sorry for asking so many questions recently. Just wondered. I originally had acts_as_ferret in my model and I performed a few searches. I then decided to change this line to acts_as_ferret :fields => [ ?name? ] However when I perform searches it is still listing results with queries contained in fields other than the ''name'' field. How do i fix this? -- Posted via

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.

Unfortunately, I wasn''t able to successfully get to where I need to go. This is the predicament I am currently finding myself in: I''m building a shopping cart for a client''s new website. They

Hi there, Has anyone tried acts_as_ferret with Edge Rails and Mongrel? When I install the plugin to a project that has Edge Rails frozen, and the Mongrel gem installed, I can''t start the server. There''s no error, it just doesn''t start. I''ve used acts_as_ferret in the past with WEBrick, and stable Rails releases without a hitch. If I remove the

I am getting unacceptable performace problems by using the roo gem for reading a file by using XLSX or XLS library from this gem. Someone may suggest me an alternative about how to parse an .XLSX file? <code> parsed_file = Excel.new(filename,false, :ignore) if (file_format.upcase == "XLS") parsed_file = Excelx.new(filename,false, :ignore) if (file_format.upcase ==

That should be fine. I don't believe the concern about performing a char-by-char conversion is valid; for example the NTFS-3G driver uses a simplistic upcase table and seems to work fine. I suspect Windows does the same. On Oct 3, 2011, at 1:12 PM, Nikola Smiljanic wrote: > How about this: > > for (int i = 0; i != NumWChars; ++i) > absPath[i] = std::tolower(absPath[i],

We are trying to use Russian(Cyrillic) names in smbclient 4.3.3 but that does not seem to work. Previously we had a problem in 4.0.7 which the location of upcase.dat changed from 3.6.5. In 4.3.3, we don't see it trying to access that file, nor do I believe that file needs to be delivered anymore. Is there a new way to configure the printer to use Russian user names ? Mike

Hi Given the warm response to the syntax additions in 1.9.1 I''m considering moving one or two more syntax extensions into core, and would like your thoughts. Last ones, I promise. Realise we don''t want much more API change now, but also we''ll probably also have to live with whatever we settle on for 2.0 for a little while, so... 1) Setting up event handlers In
