Detailed Description

CSVWriter interface.

A very simple CSV writer implementing RowWriter.

It works as any other RowWriter, but open must be called once before the first write operation.

It uses the format RFC 4180: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180

You can use your own separators and quote characters. By default the separator is the comma (,) and the quote character is the double quotes (") and autoquote is enabled.

See the CSVReader locale documentation or the SPARKSEE User Manual.

Check out the 'Data export' section in the SPARKSEE User Manual for more details on this.

autoquotes

[in] If TRUE it enables the automatic quote mode, if FALSE it disables it.

- (void) setForcedQuotes:

(STSBooleanList *)

forcequotes

Disables the automatic quote mode and forces to be quoted those positions set to TRUE in the given vector.

Parameters

forcequotes

[in] A booleanList with the position for each column that must be quoted set to true.

- (void) setLocale:

(NSString *)

localeStr

Sets the locale that will be used to write the file.

Parameters

localeStr

[in] The locale string for the file encoding.

- (void) setQuotes:

(NSString *)

quotes

Sets the character used to quote fields.

Parameters

quotes

[in] Quote character.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException

null

- (void) setSeparator:

(NSString *)

sep

Sets the character used to separate fields in the file.

Parameters

sep	[in] Separator character.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException

null

- (void) write:
