( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

When parsing CSV with Text::CSV_XS or Text::CSV don't specify the eol attribute at all, and getline () most likely will do-the-right-thing.

open my $fh, "<", $file or die "$file: $!"; # Don't use auto_diag on older Text::CSV_XS my $csv_in = Text::CSV_XS->new ({ binary => 1, auto_diag => 1 }); my $csv_out = Text::CSV_XS->new ({ binary => 1, sep_char => "\t", eol + => $/ }); while (my $row = $csv->getline ($fh)) { $csv_out->print (*STDOUT, [ @{$row}[2, 3, 0, 4] ]); } $csv->eof () or $csv->error_diag (); # Not needed with auto_diag close $fh;

update: filled in the correct output syntax for a array-ref-slice

Important update: I was wrong. A single \r is not a valid line ending in the default configuration according to the CSV specs. In that case you'd have to specify that with eol => "\r". I will see if I can make it legal if the system $/ already is a "\r".


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
