error installing piggly gem on windows

[born-in-brooklyn]

this doesn't appear to have ill effects (yet) but figured Id report it;

$ gem install piggly
unable to convert "\xA3" from ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8 for lib/piggly/reporter/resour                                                   ces/sortable.js, skipping

Hmm, this looks like an issue with code in RubyGems or rdoc when generating documentation. If you're willing, can you try gem update rdoc and then reinstalling to see if that fixes it?

I don't have access to a Windows machine to check myself. If you don't want to bother with it, no big deal -- it seems harmless and should only affect the locally installed documentation (whatever that happens to be).

[born-in-brooklyn]

sure

[born-in-brooklyn]

nope, same problem:

Ok, looks like the stray characters in that JavaScript file weren't important so I've just removed them (it was used to detect currency formats in a table, to sort data numerically). Can you open a separate issue about missing output in the report? I probably will need more details before I can work on that one -- how many procedures did it say were compiled and traced on the console, etc?

[born-in-brooklyn]

yeah, scratch that. I was pumping in bad params :(

[kputnam]

No problem :-)

[born-in-brooklyn]

hang on though, have more bugs concerning procs

[born-in-brooklyn]

and thanks again for your help with this. Is there a way I can support you in this?

[kputnam]

Oh, you're welcome! Submitting bug reports or patches or documentation is enough support for me. Since I rarely use PL/pgSQL (and even Ruby) these days, it's great to get help from others. Thank you for asking :-)

[born-in-brooklyn]

I was referring to donations!

[kputnam]

Ah, you are very kind. If you wish, you can make a donation to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation on my wife's page: http://fightcf.cff.org/goto/shuchi-and-kyle (her page from last year was here http://fightcf.cff.org/goto/kyle2017).

Best wishes, -- Kyle
