Nico Kruber created FLINK-21583: ----------------------------------- Summary: Allow comments in CSV format without having to ignore parse errors Key: FLINK-21583 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21583 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile), Table SQL / Ecosystem Affects Versions: 1.12.1 Reporter: Nico Kruber
Currently, when you pass {{'csv.allow-comments' = 'true'}} to a table definition, you also have to set {{'csv.ignore-parse-errors' = 'true'}} to actually skip the commented-out line (and the docs mention this prominently as well). This, however, may mask actual parsing errors that you want to be notified of. I would like to propose that {{allow-comments}} actually also skips the commented-out lines automatically because these shouldn't be used anyway. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
