csv_iterator

A flexible iterator library written in C++ for traversing CSV files

Usage:

Just copy the the files under the folder include in your include files. In your code include the csv_iterator.hpp header and using the boost tuples declare an iterator reading from an istream. The contructor without arguments is a synomim for the end of the stream.

The minimal example would be:

#include <fstream>
#include <boost/tuple/tuple.hpp>
#include <csv_iterator.hpp>
using namespace boost::tuples;
typedef tuple<int,std::string,double> record;
void myFunc(const record& value){
// Your code here
}
int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
// Example of csv_iterator usage
std::ifstream in("myCsvFile.csv");
csv::iterator<record> it(in);
// Use the iterator in your algorithms.
std::for_each(it, csv::iterator<record>(), myFunc);
return 0;
}
