Description

Behaviour:

Whenever the last non-empty line of the CSV file starts with a comment, the CSVParser loops infinitely!

Examplary CSV file:

some
# comment OK
line
# comment OK
value
# problematic comment

Excerpt of Java code:

   private static final char COMMENT = '#';
   private static final char QUOTE = '"';
   private static final char SEPARATOR = ';';

   CSVStrategy csvStrategy = new CSVStrategy(SEPARATOR, QUOTE, COMMENT);
   CSVParser parser = new CSVParser(reader, csvStrategy);

   String[] line = parser.getLine();

   while (line != null) {
      Log.debug("Line: " + line[0]);
      // Do something
      line = parser.getLine();
   }

Used Maven Dependency:

 <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.solr</groupId>
    <artifactId>solr-commons-csv</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.0</version>
 </dependency>
