Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Gregory Bond (gnbond) Assigned to: Andrew McNamara (andrewmcnamara) Summary: csv module cannot handle embedded \r Initial Comment: CSV module cannot handle the case of embedded \r (i.e. carriage return) in a field. As far as I can see, this is hard-coded into the _csv.c file and cannot be fixed with Dialect changes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Andrew McNamara (andrewmcnamara) Date: 2005-01-13 22:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=698599 If you're interested, I've just checked in a change to the CVS head for Python 2.5 that may, at least partially, fix this problem (if you try it, let me know how it goes). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Skip Montanaro (montanaro) Date: 2004-06-07 21:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=44345 It certainly intersects with it somehow. ;-) If nothing else, it will serve as a useful test case. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Andrew McNamara (andrewmcnamara) Date: 2004-06-07 15:32 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=698599 I suspect this restriction (CR appearing within a quoted field) is a historical accident and can be safely removed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Date: 2004-06-07 15:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=80475 Skip, does this coincide with your planned switchover to universal newlines? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=967934&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
