Wren commented on CSV-153:
--------------------------
There is technically a workaround which involves not setting the headers in
CSVFormat which in turn ensures that the header record doesn't show up.
{code}
String[] headers = ...
CSVFormat format = ...
if (!skipHeaderRecord) {
format.withHeader(headers);
}
CSVPrinter printer = ...
{code}
I think changing CSVPrinter to skip creation of header record is a cleaner
solution compared to the workaround. Any comments?

> CSVParser uses CSVFormat.getSkipHeaderRecord to initialize index mapping and
> skip the first record as well (initializeHeader method). It's inconsistent
> that CSVPrinter doesn't skip creation of header record since the
> skipHeaderRecord boolean should be applicable for reads/writes.
