>                 Key: NIFI-4822
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4822
>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.5.0
>            Reporter: Bryan Bende
>            Priority: Major
>
> If you have ValidateRecord configured with a CSV reader and CSV writer and send in some valid data, the flow file is routed to "valid", but the columns are written out in a different order than there were read.
> This means if the next processor is another record-oriented processor using the exact same schema and reader, it will fail to read it because the first column won't be what it expects.
> From doing some digging, it appears that in WriteCsvResult there is a method getFieldNames() that does this:
> {code:java}
> final Set<String> allFields = new LinkedHashSet<>();
> allFields.addAll(record.getRawFieldNames());
> allFields.addAll(recordSchema.getFieldNames());{code}
> In this case, record.getRawFieldNames() is coming from the keyset of a HashMap which means it is not maintaining the order the fields were read in.
> CsvRecordReader line 97:
> {code:java}
> final Map<String, Object> values = new HashMap<>(recordFields.size() * 2);{code}
> {color:#000080} {color}
