That's where the name of this component gets confusing to me. Since it's called "CSV", it would make sense that we follow RFC 4180, which defines the standard for comma-separated value files and thus the default record separator would be CRLF. However, we are allowing users to define whatever format they want using properties of the CSVFormat class (of course, if you use delimiter != ',', then it's not really CSV). So, what's the intent? This is more of a delimited-record format parser/writer component which supports CSV. Thus, it is not really very well-named. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
