Emmanuel Lécharny commented on DIRSTUDIO-1346:
----------------------------------------------
This is a bit more complicated than I initially thought...
If we use a '*' or '+' attributes, we simply can't determinate before having
read all the entries which *attributeTypes* will be present or absent, so it's
hard to create a tabular representation of the data when you may have an
*attributeType* present only in the last entry.
The only way to do it is either by reading all the entries and store them in
memory or in a temporary file, and keep a track of all the present attributes,
then create the CSV file. Or we can read the data twice, the first pass will
get the *attributeTypes* but no value, the second pass will create the CSV file.
> Exporting a CSV does not work when using * or + attributes
