  Merb extends English gem and Merb extension lives in Language::English::Inflector. What's wrong with using it as advertised in generated init file?

  It's gonna be merged into extlib eventually, and if you have any patches to English gem, let me know.

  Michael,

  Sorry, I should have been more clear about the why. The thing is, when using Language::English::Inflector, I (and also at least one other person on datamapper irc channel if I remember correctly) got the following error. (This was a few days ago, and also happens with edge from right now)

  .../config/init.rb:157: uninitialized constant Language::English::Inflector (NameError)

      from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/merb-core-0.9.5/lib/merb-core/bootloader.rb:316:in `load'

  Any ideas?

  I'll look into it. I tried merb -i and it works :\ Load order problem.

  It doesn't seem that this was fixed.

  I'm finding this problem on 434bb664f6007fbf5b07b42c250f345162840eeb .

  Namely, as above, it has to be:

  English::Inflect.word "erratum", "errata"

  @Nicholas We can't reproduce this issue on db2758f6e4723e3b73fcf9a251da48e935bb22c1 - be sure to have the latest English gem and Extlib HEAD versions too. We currently have a spec for this, and testing with merb -i shows the expected result.

  If the problem persists, could you please supply a sample app that we can try?

  @Nicholas - config/init.rb of your current app shows incorrect examples of English::Inflect - this is fixed for any new app you create, as well as for apps where you'd regenerate your config/init.rb using merb-gen.

  Through our IRC encounter you made it clear that it's best to ignore you from now on :-/ Thanks.

  Ok. I don't want to be argumentative but I will point out two things.

  In this ticket you said that you couldn't reproduce the problem - this implied that English::Inflector was working correctly.

  I contacted you on irc, explained everything which was in this ticket again in private message including posting code examples. I felt it was a very simple problem and it was taking a long to point out. I'm sorry if I didn't want to hang around and keep talking about it but it was becoming a little bit painful.

  Anyway, thanks for showing that the documentation was updated.

  Fabien Franzen (loob2) September 6th, 2008 @ 01:56 PM

  @Nicholas - I suggest you review the original title of this ticket:

  config/init.rb template should use English::Inflect instead of Language::English::Inflector

  The merb-gen template was promptly fixed in merb-more/merb-gen/lib/generators/templates/application/merb/config/init.rb - then I set the ticket to resolved.

  Now, off coarse your app won't show the changed config/init.rb template code... your comment wasn't clear about whether you meant that the specific case of 'erratum' was faulty, or something else wasn't working. While you should have said: the documentation/comments in config/init.rb are incorrect.

  Can you see why it was painful to grasp your intentions?

  Fabien,

  I can't see that, from my point of view I was frustrated and wanted to leave the chat because it was taking a long time to explain a very simple problem. But I'm happy to concede that it was a misunderstanding.

  I will point out that I was at no time rude in chat to you. If I had sworn or been abusive, I'd understand your attitude. It's tiresome to go on about this issue, so I won't. I did feel that I was entitled to reply to your aspersion above, which I've done. I'm happy to put it aside and go back to my code now.

  Regards, biv
