v0.5.0

  • Extensive rewrite of MARC::Reader (ISO 2709 binary reader) to provide a fairly complete and consistent handing of char encoding issues in ruby 1.9.

    • This code is well covered by automated tests, but ends up complex, there may be bugs, please report them.

    • May not work properly under jruby with non-unicode source encodings.

    • Still can’t handle Marc8 encoding.

    • May not have entirely backwards compatible behavior with regard to char encodings under ruby 1.9.x as previous 0.4.x versions. Test your code. In particular, previous versions may have automatically transcoded non-unicode encodings to UTF-8 for you. This version will not do so unless you ask it to with correct arguments.

gem install ruby-marc -v 0.5.0
