ActiveRecord-JDBC 0.3 is breaking UTF-8 charset accross all rails applications.
This is a regression since AR-JDBC 0.2.4. 0.2.3 was OK!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-922
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-922
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JRuby-extras
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.0.0RC1
Environment: Linux 2.6.20; Java 1.6; JRuby trunk.
Reporter: Raphael Valyi
Assignee: Thomas E Enebo
Priority: Critical
update your gems to make sure you have ActiveRecord-JDBC 0.3 or 0.2.4 at least.
Then scaffold any dummy Rails application you want. Now, make sure you have the
proper HTML header in your application layout (app>view>layouts>foo.rhtml):
{noformat}
<meta content='text/html; charset=utf-8' http-equiv='Content-Type' />
{noformat}
so now you can't say the header wasn't correct.
You don't need to use jcode since Rails 1.2 (using it won't fix the bug anyway)
Now, go into any of your RHTML view file and put some text with accentuated
characters. For instance, in french just write: "le nouveau président français
est vraiment un populiste affligeant". With that new afflicting ActiveRecod
JDBC, you would then see pr?sident instead of président in the corresponding
rendered HTML.
I've now idea why ActiveRecord-JDBC can break so much code, but it just does.
Guys, I warned you about that regression some 10 days ago, seems you forgot
about it.
I quickly have a look at the diff between 0.2.3 and 0.2.4 but there are quite a
lot of change and I wasn't able to find where is the regression. Good luck with
this one.
