[CSV] How to start?

[sp...@aformatik.de]

Good evening,

in two projects of mine I use something like a CSV-Object Mapper, which I
have developed. I would like to share it and make a project of it. My
mapper goes a lot further than the three existing csv-projects, but is not
much code either.

This is similar to what I am doing with Morph--in my
day job I have written a fixed length file library and
am in the final stages of using Morph to effect
dumping an Object graph onto a "record" structure. 
There still remains hope that this library might see
the light of day as an OSS project, FWIW...

Hi Sebastian,

My first thought is that String->Object mapping is something that
comes up a lot. We had a Commons Convert sandbox project a while back,
but it was overmodelled. Now Morph (spawned out of the Convert
discussions) is interested in joining, and of course BeanUtils still
has conversion code in (this is what lead to the Convert component).
So my assumption (architectually) for a CSV-Object mapper would be to
hook a csv parser up to Morph. I've not tried that, so I might be
missing lots.

The best way to keep discussion going is to put your code online
somewhere so everyone can look at it.

Thanks,

Hen
