Summary: csv.reader endless loop
Initial Comment:
Hi,
the csv.reader produce a endless loop, ifan parsing
Error is in the last line of the CSV-File. If you put
an "\r" in the last line, cvs.Error is raised and
StopIteration will lost.
import csv, StringIO
fp = StringIO.StringIO("line1\nline2\rerror")
reader = csv.reader(fp)
while 1:
try:
print reader.next()
except csv.Error:
print "Error"
except StopIteration:
break
Die Problem is in python 2.3 AND python 2.4. Other
version are not checked.

>birkenfeld: csv.Error would imply a StopIteration/break ...
No, this Error says only: "Can not parse THIS line ...".
This exception is used for reading buggy
outlook-Export-CSV-Files und trying to read some lines (not
all). And if the error is in the last line, the
StopIteration will be forgotten and the Error will be
produced in a endless-loop.
input = StringIO.StringIO("1.\rerror\n2.ok\n3.\rerr")
#insert my while-loop
#Output:
>Error
>2.ok
>Error
>Error
...

Actually, the problem may not be a problem with the csv
module at all, it may be a misinterpretation of the API on
the submitters part.
Is there any time a non-fatal csv.Error would/could be
raised? Seems to me that a csv.Error would imply a
StopIteration/break ...
