Previously when I used to build index i used to get false in return.
Event.rebuild_index
=> false
Now I get this.
Event.rebuild_index
=> {}
Following changes took place.
- I moved my app from FCGI to mongrel.
- I moved my app to capistrano.
Before moving to capistrano the code was
acts_as_ferret :fields => [ “name”, “desc_uf” ]
Now the code is
acts_as_ferret :fields => [ “name”, “desc_uf” ],:index_dir =>
“/home/dorelal/apps/eii_#{RAILS_ENV}/shared/ferret”
My question is this:
Now that I do Event.rebuild_index I get {} in return. Is that okay? Or
does that mean something is wrong somewhere?
Thanks

As of now, the return value of rebuild_index does not mean anything and
has changed between aaf versions. In 0.3.0, index.close() was the last
call
in the method, in 0.3.1 it’s been an assignment to Hash.new, so {} looks
like
a correct return value for this version.
However I don’t see how the return value should change from false to {}
without switching the aaf version.

PS: I promise to set the return value of rebuild_index to something
meaningful (maybe the number of records indexed?) in future versions, as
people really seem to pay attention to it

You are right. I upgraded aaf too. Not sure what the earlier version was
but when I upgraded I got ‘svn revision 132’ for aaf.
Sorry I should have mentioned that.
Thanks
