[jira] [Created] (CSV-288) String delimiter (||) is not working as expected.

Santhsoh created CSV-288:
----------------------------

             Summary: String delimiter (||) is not working as expected.
                 Key: CSV-288
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CSV-288
             Project: Commons CSV
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Santhsoh


Steps to reproduce  : 
1. Parse CSV file with || as delimiter and having empty columns
2. Print the CSVRecord resulting from CSVParser


 
//Expected : a,b,c,d,,f,g 
// Actual : a,b|c,d,|f,g


public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception\{
     String row = "a||b||c||d||||f||g";
     StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
     try (CSVPrinter csvPrinter = new CSVPrinter(stringBuilder, CSVFormat.EXCEL);
          CSVParser csvParser = CSVParser.parse(new StringInputStream(row), StandardCharsets.UTF_8, CSVFormat.Builder.create().setDelimiter("||").build())) {
         for (CSVRecord csvRecord : csvParser) {
             for (int i = 0; i < csvRecord.size(); i++) {
                 csvPrinter.print(csvRecord.get(i));
             }
             System.out.println(stringBuilder.toString());
             //Expected : a,b,c,d,,f,g
            // Actual : a,b|c,d,|f,g
         }
     }
 }

With the snippet provided above, actual value is not same as expected value
