Is there any advantage in CSV having delete or update? Truncate I understand....

Hi All,

Any more comments or suggestions?

Yeah - What about extending CSV engine to support user defined
delimiters and such in the DDL? The reason why I like this feature is
that for ETL jobs, you can use this to kind of simulate a stream of
data. The disadvantage of LOAD DATA INFILE is that you waste time on
loading and storing data in a table (which is a pity if the table is
not the final destination and you need to process the data before
storing it)

Of course, a storage engine is just an implementation - something like:

SELECT  ...
FROM     LOAD DATA INFILE .. etc

would be ok too (perhaps even more powerful)


Thanks!
