             Summary: CSVRecord is not Serializable
                 Key: CSV-248
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CSV-248
             Project: Commons CSV
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.7
            Reporter: Alex D Herbert


CSVRecord is no longer Serializable as it stores the CSVParser and that is not 
serializable.

The parser contains a list of all the CSVRecords. So to serialize this would 
serialize a lot of extra information. The cascade of serialization eventually 
includes the original BufferedReader used to read the data.

The parser is required for the header map functionality and the getParser() 
method. The easy fix is to not support any functionality related to the parser 
after deserialization. If the header map functionality is to be supported the 
class can store the header map (easy), or overload the serialization methods to 
record and load the header map (more effort), or something else.
