Rcov and i18n gem

Rails Rails I18n
1

Hi guys,

I installed rails 3 beta, and the gem i18n (active_support
dependency).

After this, when I migrated my app to rails 2.3.5, it was 2.3.2, it
became to raise an error when I ran rcov reports.

The error is:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/i18n-0.3.3/lib/i18n/core_ext/string/
interpolate.rb:88:in %': one hash required (ArgumentError) from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rcov-0.9.6/lib/rcov/formatters/ text_report.rb:21:inprint_info’

from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rcov-0.9.6/bin/rcov:428
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/test/unit.rb:278

I updated rcov to 0.9.7.1 but the error remains the same.

Then I removed i18n gem and everything came back to normal again.

We will be migrating to rails 3 soon, so how I can solve this?

This should be resolved in in

which is contained in I18n 0.3.4 and available on Gemcutter.

This was also reported on
Issues · ruby-i18n/i18n · GitHub and
#20 i18n fails interpolation with %% in strings (ArgumentError: one hash required) - Ruby I18n - i18n

Thanks everybody!

Funny, I just ran into this today and ticketed it in Rails:
https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994-ruby-on-rails/tickets/4052

Sven, maybe you could explain just how the i18n gem and the built-in
Active Support core ext are meant to interact? As that ticket states,
when I ran the Active Support tests, it used the method from my i18n
gem.

Oops :slight_smile:

Yeah, I that problem should go away with upgrading the I18n gem?

basically Rails shipped the I18n gem as a vendored gem from 2.2.0 (which
introduced I18n support in Rails) until 3.0.0 (which stops shipping any
dependencies as vendored code, afaik).

ActiveSupport is not the only library in Rails that vendored stuff but
here’s where these gems were located:

At first users were forced to use the vendored gem no matter which gem
version had been released and installed on the user’s system in the
meanwhile:

rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb at v2.3.0 · rails/rails · GitHub

Starting from 2.3.3.1 users could install the gem locally and
ActiveSupport would prefer that one over the vendored/shipped version,
but ONLY if the version is I18n >= 0.1.3 and <= 0.2.0 (that’s what that
‘~> 0.1.3’ expression says):

rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb at v2.3.3.1 · rails/rails · GitHub

In Rails 2.3.5 this was relaxed so that the user could install any I18n
version >= 0.1.3 and ActiveSupport would pick it up:

rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb at v2.3.5 · rails/rails · GitHub

Starting from Rails 3 afaik Bundler will install and use whatever
version you tell it through the Gemfile. I haven’t really looked closely
at that though.
