Sebb moved IO-317 to CSV-92:
----------------------------
Workflow: jira (was: Default workflow, editable Closed status)
Key: CSV-92 (was: IO-317)
Project: Commons CSV (was: Commons IO)
> Need a way to extract parsed headers, e.g. for use in formatting output
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: CSV-92
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CSV-92
> Project: Commons CSV
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Sebb
>
> Parsed header names are currently not accessible except as field key names,
> but these have to be known in advance.
> It would be useful to be able to have access to the header names:
> * to use in printing a header for a new CSV file. E.g. to read a CSV file and
> produce a new one with some changes made.
> * to write generic CSV applications
> The headers could be made available as a String array (in column number
> order) from the CSVParser class.
> The simplest would be to store the parsed (or provided) headers and return a
> clone of the array.
> If headers were not provided or requested, the method should probably return
> null rather than an empty array - to be decided.
