Chris A. Mattmann commented on SOLR-1925:
-----------------------------------------
bq. I tried excel 2003 and excel 2007 - both work fine with embedded newlines.
Perhaps you're not encoding your test file correctly.
Huh? It has nothing to do with any test file? There is no test file.
Process
# Load data into Solr with embedded newlines
# Do query to Solr, call wt=csv and save results to a file (don't specify
excel=true, preserving embedded newlines)
# Load .csv file into Excel on the platforms I mentioned and watch it break
You continue to omit the platforms you're testing on. Why do you continue to do
this?
bq. I'll repeat: "the CSV spec doesn't recommend always using encapsulators".
Why do you keep suggesting that it does?
Because your statement that it doesn't recommend always using encapsulators
neglects to take into account my perspective. Also the spec isn't black and
white, as you imply. There is room for interpretation. I believe my
interpretation allows for the most flexibility.
bq. I didn't need to try it... I just looked at this patch, which doesn't do
proper CSV encoding/escaping.
Right, and you selectively quoted me. If you're going to quote me, include the
whole quote. Look at the 2nd part of what I wrote that mentions that *there are
plenty of cases* with Solr data loading and Response Writers where it doesn't
round trip.
bq. You pick one (like \n)... if there is a need for a different one, you let
it be configured / specified by the client.
Hmmm, not sure I understand this statement.
All I know is that regardless, I'm using this and it's been working fine for me
in production for weeks by applying this patch to branch-1.5.

> As part of some work I'm doing, I put together a CSV Response Writer. It
> currently takes all the docs resultant from a query and then outputs their
> metadata in simple CSV format. The use of a delimeter is configurable (by
> default if there are multiple values for a particular field they are
> separated with a | symbol).
