Gary Gregory updated CSV-208: ----------------------------- Description: Cannot parse PostgreSQL CSV and Text formats. We cannot seem to parse the stock PostgreSQL Text format, see - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testRandomPostgreSqlCsv() - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testRandomPostgreSqlText() - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testPostgreSqlCsvNullOutput() - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testPostgreSqlCsvTextOutput() I am guessing that the issue is that in PostgreSQL, the escape character is the same as the quote character: {quote} QUOTE Specifies the quoting character to be used when a data value is quoted. The default is double-quote. This must be a single one-byte character. This option is allowed only when using CSV format. ESCAPE Specifies the character that should appear before a data character that matches the QUOTE value. The default is the same as the QUOTE value (so that the quoting character is doubled if it appears in the data). This must be a single one-byte character. This option is allowed only when using CSV format. {quote} was: Cannot parse PostgreSQL CSV and Text formats.
