similar to: [OT] Unicode tokenization for Ferret

Looks like I have skipped on this, but still - a couple of questions: 1) Why there suddenly is an OrderedHash in ActiveSupport? (this glaring omission from ruby core is present in many apps already) 2) Why it doesn''t match the semantics of Hash respectively? 3) Why it''s #nodoc ? -- Julian ''Julik'' Tarkhanov please send all personal mail to me at julik.nl

I wonder - do we have some helper/processor/gem to automatically convert all URLs in a passed string to their canonical equivalent - i.e. with the protocol, host and such prepended based on the Rails environment. Super-duper infty for RSS feeds (I hate their requirement for canonical URLs everywhere). -- Julian ''Julik'' Tarkhanov please send all personal mail to me at

Well, I see that my last email hasn''t generated any reaction from the Rails core team. It looks like all of them are the happy users of "plain text" (which, as we know by now, doesn''t exist, but still). I apologize in advance for the sore bitterness of this message but I see that the Rails-core STILL, despite all of the efforts, sees these issues as something

Did someone encountered a problem of putting a hash of values into AR, into a certain field? Essentially I need some denormalized, freeform serializable hash to which the user can add keys and values, and handle accessors from there would be lovely too. I remember that AR has "serialize" but did someone actually use it? I heard nothing but complaints about rich objects in AR

TO everyone who is making use of unicode_hacks! I have made irreversible changes to the plugin so that the routings are no longer overloaded. To call the character-bound routines, you need to use the "chars" or "u" accessors, as outlined in the docs http://julik.nl/code/unicode-hacks/index.html and in this blog post by Thijs:

Hello Campers! Is it just me or does Camping init the session twice on a redirect? If I have an app and when the user visits it for the first time, a session is generated. Afterwards I redirect the user in a service (that basically does auth) and he gets bounced to the login page - but when I arrive at the login page my SID somehow has changed :-( so there is a stale session dangling

Mosquito, the TDD framework for Camping has been updated (0.1.3). We''ve tried to keep it backwards compatible, so your apps should continue to work. But feel free to submit a bug report at RubyForge if you have any problems.

Hello everyone! Pushing my new rails project I stumbled upon some weird problem. I cannot force WeBRICK to show me my MySQL records in UTF-8. All I recieve into the object (instead of russian letters) are question marks (a la ?????? style). I am running MySQL 4.1 (the one with switchable charsets) and a binary Ruby extension for it, all on OSX. To me it looks like MySQL never recieves what I

I am making 2 or 3 apps that have to speak Russian and English (and probably Dutch). My coming website will have to speak all of them (and maybe French). I am tired. Can someone help me think a little? http://123.writeboard.com/4f2acae094e850b35/login Password: rails I won''t manage this alone. -- Julian "Julik" Tarkhanov

Hi all, Following the recent release of Instiki-AR beta, I haven''t had a lot of bug reports or other feedback. This could mean one of the two things. Either nobody is using it, or some people are, and have no problems at all. One thing for sure is that it''s certainly getting downloaded (20 times a day, as it were)! I''d like to know which way is it. So, if you are

Hi, just saw the announcement of yet another ajax library on theserverside.com. The server seems to be under heavy load already but if you can cope with longer load times http://rialto.application-servers.com/demoRialto.jsp shows some neat stuff. regards Jan

I haven''t had a chance to work on fixing multiple controller view paths recently. My original patch attempt was: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8582 It was rejected due to the fact that it was fixing the symptom more than the problem. However, I think it''s critical that this problem get fixed, otherwise the whole concept of view_paths is severely neutered and

I am disappointed about the (seeming) lack of Unicode support in Rails. Is there a howto about working the most important limitations? For example, figuring out the length of an entered word: "???".length() will return 6, not 3. So if there is a maximum number of characters a user is allowed to enter, this won''t work as it should -- it treats strings as byte arrays instead

Hi, I''m a newcomer to Ruby and to Rails, and am having a problem with character encoding. Now, I know ruby doesn''t handle unicode...but, characters like ? (eacute) and ? (ccedil) are part of the iso-8859-1 charset, so it shouldn''t be a problem, right? But, for some reason, the string functions still seem to hang on those characters. As an example, in a brand new rails

In my work with a simple localization plugin, i''m running into a lot of places in the Rails core, where text and other localization specific information is hardcoded. I''ve included some examples in the bottom of this post. It''s hard for an outsider to know, if the hardcoded values are a result of inconsistency in code, or "by design". I hope that we can have
