Sean Wu commented on CSV-102:
-----------------------------

Hi, I'm eager for this feature :)

Now my application will process the CSV format liked data by the embeded commons-csv, but it failed to handle the customized line breaks that specified in the MySQL LOAD DATA command(e.g. LOAD DATA INFILE xxx ... LINE TERMINATED BY "| \n").

So I was wondering whether this issue will be fixed in the near futrue?

Besides, I found a member named recordSeperator in CSVFormat but failed to seek any usage of in Lexer. It really confuse me because the recordSeperator should be used in the lexer process but actually it doesn't. :(

> Any specified record separator appear to be ignored and the code just assumes that standard line endings are the record delimiters.
> I have a patch to partly address the problems that 'falls back' to the current behavior. The patch only allow a maximum of a one character record separator.
> The approach needs verifying and also needs improving to be more generic.
