Benedikt Ritter commented on CSV-35:
------------------------------------
Do we ant to "fix" the parsing behavior for MySQL exports? I think we don't
need to fix this for 1.0. MySQL is just one format among many.
> Escaped line separators are not supported
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: CSV-35
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CSV-35
> Project: Commons CSV
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Emmanuel Bourg
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> Commons CSV doesn't handle escaped line separators, for example:
> {code}
> value1;value2;value3a\
> value3b
> {code}
> In this case the expected result is:
> {code}["value1", "value2", "value3a\nvalue3b"]{code}
> This kind of escaping is produced by MySQL, whether the field enclosing is
> enabled or not. It's possible to see enclosing quotes and escaped line
> separators like this:
> {code}
> "value1";"value2";"value3a\
> value3b"
> {code}
