Class CSVStringParser

java.lang.Object
  org.tbee.csv.CSVStringParser

public class CSVStringParser
extends Object

This class can split up a string based on CSV logic. It is used by FileParser to split up the individual lines.

Usage is simple:

// create the parser
CSVStringParser lCSVStringParser = new CSVStringParser();

// parse a string
lFields = lCSVStringParser.parse("test,test,test");

The field separator is per default a comma (,) but can be set prior to parsing. The parser recognizes empty fields (",,,") and returns an empty string. The separator can be escaped using the escaper (default escaper is '\', so '\,') and the escaper can be escaped also ('\\')
