CSV bug?

ruby-talk
1

I recently added a feature which allows multi-char sequence
as a record
separator and field separator.

very cool.
maybe next you’ll add regexed as separators too :-))

The current version is in csv’s repository located at
http://www.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/lib/csv/
and I’ll merge it to ruby’s repository tonight. Of course at
HEAD(1.9).
What do you think about the branch for 1.8? I’m afraid
that 1.8 users
don’t want incompatibilities…

depends on user. I like the current change since it simpler.

I’m on 1.8, maybe you can create/fork csv2 on 1.8 wc is then compatible w
your 1.9 csv? :slight_smile:

you deprecate curr 1.8 csv.
you develop csv2 1.8 or csv 1.9.

you are the developer. your call.

I hope that feature, too but I don’t think I can do it without dropping
streaming feature of current CSV module.

Sorry for stupid q but what does ‘wc’ & ‘w’ mean here?

Sure. It must be my responsibility.
