ANN: REXML 2.7.2

[Sean Russell]

Hi,

Long time, no release.

2.7.2 is in the CVS repository, so it should be included with Ruby
1.8.1.

Here's the change log since 2.7.1:
* More fixes for compatability with the Ruby 1.8 series
* Exceptions are normalized
* Some changes to the Light API
* Improvements to encoding support. iconv is now used whenever
possible, falling back to the old encoding mechanism for backwards
compatability (Ruby < 1.8)
* Bug to maintain inline external entity instances
* Removed a cascading tainting issue with encoding
* Function::string() now handles Element nodes properly, which means
that XPath text() now works properly.
* A minor indentation bug was fixed
* Applied a patch from Simon Conrad-Armes that improves REXML's
handling of namespaces in the SAX2 parser
* Encoding support is more reliable and thread resistant. The Output
class now works like you'd intuitively expect it to. It is now much
easier to shift between encodings in various was -- by changing the
encoding, by creating an Output with the encoding, etc.
* Document:ECLARATION is deprecated. Use XMLDecl::default() (static
method).

Thanks to all the people who submitted patches, fixed, or reported
bugs.

Notice that most of these changes are bug fixes. Optimization is
still the issue that's at the top of my list, but I've had a hard time
getting anywhere with it. Ruby optimizations are entirely
counterintuitive to me; I think this is just the nature of high level
languages.

My optimization strategy includes a three-pronged attack:

* Optimize the base parser. This will improve performance across
REXML, since all parsers use it.
* Finalize the Light API. This will improve (memory) space
requirements for those who choose to use it, and will provide the
leanest, fastest possible tree parser.
* Add libxml awareness. That is, if REXML sees libxml is installed,
it'll use that as the base parser instead of the native Ruby parser.

Next in line after optimization is documentation. The main
documentation needs to be rewritten, and I need to work on the
changelog. I've got a system for automating the changelog, but I need
to merge it with the REXML project. The tutorial is out of date, and
incomplete, and I haven't looked at the rdoc output in a while -- I'm
sure it's pretty ugly.

Just below that is the creation of some utility classes, which
probably won't become part of the standard REXML distribution: RelaxNG
validation, an XPath tool, and so on. Then there's some work on
Namespace support that Tobias has been hounding me about; I've placed
that on the back burner for the moment, because it only applies to
writing sub-trees -- which, while admittedly desireable, isn't useful
in any XML processing *I* do, and requires a major overhaul of
Namespace support in REXML. If this is important to anybody, I
recommend contributing patches to REXML, 'cause I've got other things
which I think are more important, and I don't know when I'm going to
get to it.

Finally, I've been really bad about getting back to people, and I'm
sorry about that. The bug tracker has been having chronic problems
since we upgraded the server, and I haven't had time to fix it. I've
dropped the Freshmeat entry; it was too much of a pain maintaining 4
release announcement mechanisms.

BTW, the darcs repository is now the preferred repository to make
changes in, despite the fact that the Subversion repository is listed
in the RAA. The reason is that it is much easier for users to submit,
and for me to accept, darcs patches; as Subversion doesn't have any
concept of patches, I have to either provide direct write access to
the repository to contributors, or I have to manually pick apart and
apply patches, and darcs is just easier.

The REXML home page is, as always,

http://www.germane-software.com/software/XML/rexml/

The Subversion repository is at:

http://www.germane-software.com/repositories/public/rexml

with the standard trunk/, tags/, and branches/ subhierarchy.

The darcs repository is at:

http://www.germane-software.com/darcs/rexml

That's the root of the development branch.

darcs is at:

http://abridgegame.org/darcs/


Thanks for your patience,

I'm getting really frustrated.

First: I'm not a professional programmer - programming is a hobby with me,
so I'll be the first to admit - I don't really know what I'm doing but I
should know enough.
Second: I absolutely _love_ Ruby and everything that I've been able to do.
Third: I can't get anything to work.

I'm on Win2000. I used the PragProg installer for the latest 1.8 release...
and I can't get...
mysql-ruby-2.4.2-1-winpkg
or,
rexml_2.7.2
or,
exerb-win32-2.6.5.0
or,
rbbr-0.5.0-withapi.tar.gz
to work - at all...

I read the documentation online and in the downloaded files I do exactly (to
the best of my knowledge) what I'm supposed to do - in short, I try my best
and I still can't get anything to work.

I feel like a kid in a candy shop where the candy I want is an illusion and
I'm startin' to not like the candy shop very much. : - (

What do I need to do to solve my problem??

Could I request better install docs in general? Not everybody who uses Ruby
is a Linux Admin...

Thanks in advance for all the help I can get!!

-Rich
P.s. - Please no suggestions of switching to Linux... : - )

Do you get errors? What are they?

 

[Rich]

--rexml--

1. Using a file with these lines:

require "rexml/document"
file = File.new( "slashdot.xml" )
doc = REXML:ocument.new file

2. I get this error:
"D:\rubyMine\rexml\tests>ruby include.rb
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rexml/encoding.rb:39:in `load': No such file
to l
oad -- rexml/encodings/UTF-8.rb (LoadError)

from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rexml/document.rb:24
from include.rb:1:in `require'
from include.rb:1"

3. I've looked at the file to see what it was trying to load - and it's
trying to load "rexml/encodings/UTF-8.rb". I don't have that file. I
downloaded 3 different times to see if maybe it just wasn't in the Zip file
I downloaded. No luck.

--rbbr--

1. Following the install directions -
"Install
-------
1. Install Ruby-GetText-Package, ri and ReFe. (All of them are optional)
2. De-Compress ruby-gnome2-api.tar.gz and rbbr's archive(Optional)
withapi package include this api files.
3. Puts ruby-gnome2-api/* to (rbbr's top directory)/data/rbbr/rd/*
4. Move rbbr's top directory and type:

$ ruby install.rb config
$ ruby install.rb setup
($ su)
# ruby install.rb install

You can also install files in your favor directory by
supplying install.rb some options. Try "ruby setup.rb --help"."

#1 - no
#2 - yes
#3 - no
#4 - yes (install.rb config, install.rb setup, install.rb install)

2. I then went to the Usage section -
"Usage
-----

Run the following command:

$ rbbr"

This makes no sense to me... so I found the file 'rbbr'
(C:\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\rbbr) and...
- double clicked (it asked what to use to open it... and I said Cancel)
- changed it's name to have the extension '.rb' and double clicked it...
the console window opened then closed.
- went to the same location and typed 'ruby rbbr.rb' into the command
prompt and...
"C:\ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8>ruby rbbr.rb
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rbbr/ui/gtk/stockbrowser.rb:16:in `require':

from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rbbr/ui/gtk/stockbrowser.rb:16

from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rbbr/ui/gtk.rb:39
from rbbr.rb:35:in `require'
from rbbr.rb:35"

--mysql-ruby-- ( I noticed that what I referred to earlier was wrong -
sorry!! This is the right name for what I tried to get working...)

1. Following Install section:
" Install
% ruby ./setup.rb
% ruby ./test.rb hostname user passwd
# ruby ./install.rb"

When I type "ruby setup.rb" into a command prompt I get:
"F:\rubyAll\ruby-mysql-0.2.2.tar.gz\ruby-mysql-0.2.2.tar\ruby-mysql-0.2.2>ru
by se
tup.rb
setup.rb:8:in ``': No such file or directory - mysql_config --socket
(Errno::ENO
ENT)
from setup.rb:8"

--exerb--

When I run the file "exerb-win32.exe" inside
"F:\rubyAll\exerb-win32-2.6.5.0\exerb-win32-2.6.5.0" all I get are old
versions of Ruby (1.68)... I'm using 1.8. What do I need to do to get it to
compile my scripts to 1.8?


I think that covers it... thanks for listening to my problems - I'm really
grateful for any help I can get...

-Rich

Hi Rich,

I have no answer to the rest of your problems, but

--exerb--

When I run the file "exerb-win32.exe" inside
"F:\rubyAll\exerb-win32-2.6.5.0\exerb-win32-2.6.5.0" all I get are
old
versions of Ruby (1.68)... I'm using 1.8. What do I need to do to
get it to
compile my scripts to 1.8?

You have to specify it in your recipe file. And to use 1.8 core,
you need to install exerb or or exerb core collection from
http://exerb.sourceforge.jp/index.en.html . The documentation of
recipe file can be found in doc directory of exerb.

By the way, exerb is now under major rework and the current
version is 3.0.0-preview7, however the documentation in
English is not ready yet. (exerb-win32 has not been released
for 3.0.0 exerb.)

Awesome - I'll try and wait for the 3.0.0 release then

Will the Windows version be released at the same time?

BTW - thanks for paying attention to me - I feel ignored sometimes...

I'm not the author, so I don't know. But you can use exerb
(not exerb-win32) instead. You can install it just by
typing what the readme file says on the command line.
Though We Windows people generally prefer GUI...

I forgot to mention, but the latest exerb is now resolved
some problems on extensions it had before, such as YAML's
Syck cannot be used with exerb. As far as I know, now you
can require yaml in your program to be compiled with exerb.
If anyone had a problem with it, try the current release.

Hi,

Thanks for detail reporting.

Thanks for your suggestions (and for your patience) ... here is everything
that happens when I...

This is a bug of rbbr when the environment doesn't have gettext.

When you remove line 16 of stockbrowser.rb ?
and then, does it work?

Sorry for inconvenient.

The errors is caused not to be set HOME environment variable.
So the workarround is to set HOME correctly on dos prompt:

set HOME=c:\your\own\directory

or you can set it with Control Panel as a permanent environment variable.

Thanks again for all of your help...

You're welcome .

BTW,
I intend to release rbbr-0.5.1 for MS Windows
if your problem will be fixed.
So keep to report your problems until you succeed to run rbbr, please .

Do you mean that I have to set 'Path' Environment Variable?

It's set to:
"C:\GTK\2.0\bin;C:\GTK\2.0\lib;c:\ruby\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot
%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem"

I'm not sure if you mean for me to create a new Environment Variable - or to
change an existing one...

I'm also not sure what you mean when you say to set HOME to
'c:\your\own\directory'. Is this a specific folder? The Ruby 'bin' folder or
the GTK2 'bin' folder? I'm not sure what to set it to...

Again - I can't tell you how nice it is to finally get someone who's willing
to help me... thanks. I'll keep doing what you tell me to...

wow, if you're going to correct such issues[1], I'd like to add dsome
more:

my environment is
winxp pro
ruby 1.8.0 (2003-08-04) [i386-mswin32]
ruby-gtk 0.8
gtk from dropline 2.2.4

1)
for some strange reason, %USERPROFILE% does'nt get setted on my box.
so, if you try do a 'require library' you may get:

C:/Programmi/ruby-1.8/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rbbr/ui/gtk/confmanager.rb:65:

`main'
from c:/programmi/ruby-1.8/ruby/bin/rbbr.rb:22






2)
I suppose in the rescue clause there should exist an additional
'NameError' catching. in browser.rb:39
if you try to load this script

$ary=Arrayciao 3000 , 0

you may get this error:

`main'
from c:/programmi/ruby-1.8/ruby/bin/rbbr.rb:22

btw, every NameError will crash rbbr. What's wrong with just catching
every exception ?


3)
in moduleindex.rb line 47,
maybe this :
if iter.get_value(0) =~ /#{target_name}/i
should become
if iter.get_value(0) =~ /#{Regexp.quote(target_name)}/i

other way, if you try to search for a single "]" you'll get a huge
number of warnings in the console. But maybe this is ok.

[1] I mean, those were is the environment that is not working or users
doing stupid things

Hi,

At Mon, 15 Dec 2003 04:26:58 +0900,

I'm also not sure what you mean when you say to set HOME to
'c:\your\own\directory'. Is this a specific folder? The Ruby 'bin' folder or
the GTK2 'bin' folder? I'm not sure what to set it to...

On Unices, HOME variable points each users own directory, and
all user specific data are stored there. On Windows, "My
Documents", "Application Data" or "User Profile" might be it.
Commonly, this directory is expressed as "~/", and I suspect
ruby on Windows should expand it to one of those folders.

I intend to release rbbr-0.5.1 for MS Windows
if your problem will be fixed.
So keep to report your problems until you succeed to run rbbr, please .

I just sent a longer message that does not seem to have appeared here.
My ISP has problems ATM with newsservers so I try again.

I think there are some possible fix before 0.5.1,
my environment is
winxp pro
ruby 1.8.0 (2003-08-04) [i386-mswin32]
ruby-gtk 0.8
gtk from dropline 2.2.4

1)
for some strange reason, %USERPROFILE% does'nt get setted on my box.
so, if you try do a 'require library' you may get:

C:/Programmi/ruby-1.8/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rbbr/ui/gtk/confmanager.rb:65:
in `initialize': No such file or directory - %USERPROFILE%/.rbbr
(Errno::ENOENT)

Hmm, rbbr doesn't use %USERPROFILE% directly.
How is your environment variables?
I think your HOME environment is set like as HOME=%USERPROFILE%.
If so, set correct path to HOME or USERPROFILE.

I accpet the erro, but possibly an error dialog instead of a crash
would be better

Sure. I'll change it in the near future.

2)
I suppose in the rescue clause there should exist an additional
'NameError' catching. in browser.rb:39
if you try to load this script

$ary=Arrayciao 3000 , 0

you may get this error:

C:\Documents and Settings\gabriele\bf.rb:1: undefined
method`Arrayciao' for #<Object:0x27892d0> (NoMethodError)
from
C:/Programmi/ruby-1.8/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rbbr/ui/gtk/browser.rb:39:in
`load'

btw, every NameError will crash rbbr. What's wrong with just catching
every exception in that line ? (I'm a nuby forgive me

Thanks. Fixed.

3)
in moduleindex.rb line 47,
maybe this :
if iter.get_value(0) =~ /#{target_name}/i
should become
if iter.get_value(0) =~ /#{Regexp.quote(target_name)}/i

other way, if you try to search for a single "]" you'll get a huge
number of warnings in the console. But maybe this is ok.

The entry box accept regexp strings.
For example, when you find classes which start 'A', put '^a'
to the entry box. If you find Gtk::Window itself, put 'Gtk::Window$'
there. If you find all of Gtk and Gdk modules/classes,
put '(Gtk|Gdk)' there.
It's really useful for me .
