Resolution: Won't Fix
Well, I guess nobody was really interested in this one...

> values, sequences, etc.

> Key: OFBIZ-108
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-108
> Project: OFBiz (The Open for Business Project)
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: framework
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: Si Chen
> Fix For: SVN trunk
>
>
> A long time ago we had worked on extending the OFBiz DataFile tool with the
> following features:
> 1. separator-style="tab" or "csv" will do tab or csv importing. This will
> support Excel CSV files, including formats such as
> "This is a comma delimited field, which means it can have commas in the text
> separated by quotes", "125.00",
> Also supports tab delimited formats.
> 2. Set constant values for fields or default values if they are null, by
> using tags such as default-value="<value>" will set the value when there is
> nothing there
> and default-value="<value>" constant-value="true" will set a constant
> 3. Skip null records: use a skip-if-null="true" for a field, and if the
> field is null or only has blank spaces, a record will not be added
> 4. Default values for date fields, use attributes:
> default-value="2004-05-01" constant-value="true"
> 5. auto-generated="true" will cause an auto-generated sequence from the
> current entity name, or if seq-name is specified, from that entity
> This unfortunately never got pushed back to OFBiz, but I think it would be a
> good enhancement, so if someone else on the list has the time to work on it,
> I can post a file plus some documentation to help you merge it back into the
> OFBiz DataFiles component.
