ruby 1.9.2 incompatible encoding regexp match

[winding-lines]

I am getting some encoding problems in REXML. Any idea on how to force the encodings to either UTF-8 or ASCII-8Bit?

add

encoding: utf-8

at the beginning of the file

add that to the beginning of what file? I am having an identical issue:

At the beginning of the file where the error occurred add: #encoding: utf-8

[becatlibra-zz]

it is occurring after the code connects to the server. it is when the xmpp4r stream parser is parsing the incoming stanzas. Are you saying that I should be adding this to the streamparser.rb (part of the core of the xmpp4r module?)

[bobanj]

in every file that contains no ascii chars like for example шѓќч....so add it in the beginning of all files where there are non ascii chars...start with source.rb , baseparser.rb...it does no harm ...thats how 1.9 rolls ;) good luck

[becatlibra-zz]

The problem is that the characters that it cannot parse are coming in from the xmpp stream. They are not in a local file. The are in the incoming stanzas when the code connects to the xmpp server.
