Maybe the method could be named better, something like ExtendedBufferedReader.getCurrentLineNumber() - which would be different than total lines processed.

I've been looking at it further and there is an issue with 1-based counting.

The line number currently counts the number of EOLs seen.
This means it is currently accurate for total line count (which a
1-based system would not be) and is accurate for any completed
records.

It's only during processing of a line (before EOL is reached) that the
count is off by one.
I noticed that when I tested an invalid parse.

One way round this would be to adjust the count when generating the
IOException. e.g. if there are spurious characters before EOL it's
obvious that one needs to add 1.

I suspect it might be a bit tricky / more expensive to increment the
line number only at the start of a line.

Needs further work, which is why I started by just correcting the
Javadoc to agree with the code.

The line number returned by

ExtendedBufferedReader.getLineNumber()

currently starts at zero, so an error in the first line in the file is
reported as being in line 0.

There does not seem to be any good reason for using a zero-based line
number, so I would like to change it to 1-based. Some tests will need
to be fixed.

WDYT?

Makes sense to me too.
