Multibyte error under Ruby 1.9.1
Reported by Martin Hess | June 23rd, 2009 @ 01:48 AM
I've tracked down a problem with Webby It turns out that it has some non-ascii characters in at least one file; for example the second quote in the regular expression below is not an ASCII character:
parts = self.split( %r/( [:.;?!][ ] | (?:[ ]|^)["“] )/x )
webby-0.9.4/lib/webby/core_ext/string.rb
It produces errors like this:
:in `require': /opt/local/lib/ruby1.9/gems/1.9.1/gems/webby-0.9.4/lib/webby/core_ext/string.rb:14: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) (SyntaxError)
I fixed it by adding the following to the top of the offending file:
# encoding: utf-8
You might consider adding it to all your files
