[jira] [Commented] (CSV-213) CSVParser#iterator()#hasNext() fails

["Gary Gregory (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CSV-213?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16095718#comment-16095718 ] 

Gary Gregory commented on CSV-213:
----------------------------------

This is normal behavior with the current architecture: The {{iterator()}} API presents an object that is backed by data in the {{CSVParser}} as the parser is _streaming_ over the file. The {{CSVParser}} is like a forward-only stream.

When you create a new {{Iterator}} you are only created a new view on the same position in the parser's stream.

For the behavior you want, you need to open a new {{CSVParser}}.

You can also abreviate the parser creation like this:

{code:java}
CSVParser parser = csvFormat.parse(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(csvFile), StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
{code}

> Hello,
> with class sample below and attached fail the program fails. Problem is that iterator wrongly computes the records. If hasNext is true then next record should be fetched.
> + wouldn't it be better to provide currentRecord also?
