Ever?
If characters appear between the encapsulated value and the next delimiter, the input is clearly broken, and this needs to be signalled somehow. Does not have to be IOE, but the default should be to inform the user. It might perhaps be worth adding an option to provide alternative behaviour, but I think it will need to be more than just a boolean, as there are at least 3 options: - exception - ignore - append to parsed value But I don't think this is needed for 1.0. To close the main issue, I suggest creating a new one just for this. But it should be postponed for now. > Gary > > > -- > E-Mail: garydgreg...@gmail.com | ggreg...@apache.org > Java Persistence with Hibernate, Second > Edition<http://www.manning.com/bauer3/> > JUnit in Action, Second Edition <http://www.manning.com/tahchiev/> > Spring Batch in Action <http://www.manning.com/templier/> > Blog: http://garygregory.wordpress.com > Home: http://garygregory.com/ > Tweet! http://twitter.com/GaryGregory --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
