Merge Tool

[arvernes]

Dominique, alias Lemovice is developing a new plugin to merge different gedcom files.
This tool is available right now, but for people running Ancestris beta 0.8 only. Check the plugins manager of Ancestris. This tool can be used for testing purpose only.
It's important for us to get feedback and bug reports. Francois

I just tested the plug-in works correctly.

Bonsoir, ... chez moi ça ne marche pas ... à la fin du processus, au moment de cliquer sur "ouvrir le fichier produit" ... il trouve une erreur et me demande de :

Erreur pendant l'écriture de la ligne 0:
Impossible d'encoder une propriété dans Nom1. Prénom1(IOOOO2) avec le jeu de caractères
ANSEL. Utilisez ‘Enregistrer sous‘ et choisissez un autre encodage.

Donc ne fonctionne pas ici ;-((

Hello,
This message if it's a bug report in french should be posted in the french section. Don't forget that Ancestris beta 0.8 must be run using Java 1.7.xxx (not 1.6.xxx).

[oops66]

Thank you for the information ;-)

For information, I have also tested with java 1.7 only, and I still have the same issue/bug ... so (FI:I had the both java 1.6.x & 1.7.x version installed before)
... thanks for this great work, have a good evening.

Hello,

   I've tried to merge 2 ANSEL files and it's working fine for me, could you please try to save your files in another character format, UTF-8 for example, and retry to merge these files.

  When you've got such problem please include the logs in a support request so that we can try to debug

Thank's

Dominique

Hello Dominique,
Thank you for the reply ... Well, I have found a work around ... I don't know why, but with ANSEL I had this bug (UTF-8 too), so I used UNICODE then the bug has gone.
So now the merge plugin is OK for me too ;-)

  When you've got such problem please include the logs in a support request so that we can try to debug

OK, I have this error in the Logs:
...
Can't encode character  '+A0' in Ansel charset. Position 734 in: "0 @I00002@ INDI
...
INFO [ancestris.app]: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Called DataObject.find on null

---------------------
PS: Is it better to use ANSEL instead UNICODE for ancestris ? Why ANSEL is by default (probably better for ancestris) ... but UNICODE seems to be more "universal" ?

****EDIT (in French) : OK I got an answer ...***

> > L'ascii est à éviter, car tu n'auras pas les caractères accentués.

Si l'ASCII Gedcom c'est du 8bits : l'ANSI US, ce qui doit correspondre à
Windows, ce n'est pas trop bien défini.

UNICODE on oublie, c'est le code 16 bits avec une grosse perte de place
pour tout ce qui est compatible ASCII 7 bits. Ce ne doit pas être lu par
beaucoup de programmes de généalogie.

> > L'encodage par défaut est l'ansel.

L'ANSEL est complètement obsolète depuis une dizaine d'années pour sa
fonction premières : les bibliographies américaines. Il a été remplacé
par UTF-8, même la draft gedcom 5.5.1 le reconnait en l'acceptant.
 ...

... So I use UNICODE, because now days, I think than a lot of softwares support UNICODE ?
