CSV Parser 2.2.0

• Fixed bug which caused inaccurate serialization of floating point values in CSV Writer as reported by #188
  • Bug affected numbers close to 10 ^n; was caused by usage of inaccurate std::log() function (see: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1489830/efficient-way-to-determine-number-of-digits-in-an-integer)
• Fixed issue where strings consisting of numbers and dashes (e.g. phone numbers) were inaccurately identified as integers
• Silenced some compiler warnings

CSV Parser 2.1.3

• Fix various compatibility issues with g++ and clang
• Added hex value parsing
• Fixed a rare out-of-bounds condition

CSV Parser 2.1.2

• Fixed compilation issues with C++11 and 14.
  • CSV Parser should now be should C++11 compatible once again with g++ 7.5 or up
• Allowed users to customize decimal place precision when writing CSVs
• Fixed floating point output
  • Arbitrarily large integers stored in doubles can now be output w/o limits
• Fixed newlines not being escaped by CSVWriter

CSV Parser 2.1.1

• Fixed CSVStats only processing first 5000 rows thanks to @TobyEalden
• Fixed parsing """fields like this""" thanks to @rpadrela
• Fixed CSVReader move semantics thanks to @artpaul

Minor Patch

Fixed #142 where decimal numbers were being printed properly by CSVWriter, and incorporated #137 and #134

Better, faster, stronger

New Features

• CSVReader can now parse from memory mapped files, std::stringstream, and std::ifstream
• DelimWriter now supports writing rows encoded as std::tuple
• DelimWriter automatically converts numbers and other data types stored in vectors, arrays, and tuples

Improvements

• CSVReader is now a no-copy parser when memory-mapped IO is used
  • CSVRow and CSVField now refer to the original memory map
• Significant performance improvements for some files

Bug Fixes

• Fixed potential thread safety issues with internals::CSVFieldList

API Changes

• CSVReader::feed() and CSVReader::end_feed() have been removed. In-memory parsing should be performed via the interface for std::stringsteam.

CSV Parser 2.0.1

• Made parsing CSV files without header rows more convenient
• Fixed a compilation error with std::back_inserter on some systems

CSV Parser 2.0.0

• Parser now uses memory-mapped IO for reading from disk thanks to mio
  • CSV files are read in smaller chunks to reduce memory footprint (but parsing is significantly faster)
• CSVReader::read_row() (and CSVReader::iterator) no longer blocks CSVReader::read_csv(), i.e. we can now simultaneously work on CSV data while reading more rows
• Parser internals completely rewritten to use more efficient and easier to maintain/debug data structures
• Fixed bug where single column files could not be parsed
• Fixed errors with parsing empty files
• CSVWriter::write_row() now works with std::array

CSV Parser 2.0 Beta: >300 MBps Edition

• Parser now uses memory-mapped IO for reading from disk
  • On Windows, parser may map entire file into memory or mmap chunks of file iteratively based on available RAM (will extend to all OSes)
• Parser internals completely rewritten to use more efficient and easier to maintain/debug data structures
  • New algorithm involves minimal copying
• Fixed bug where single column files could not be parsed
• Fixed errors with parsing empty files

Fixed memory errors when parsing large files

• Fixed issue with incorrect usage of string_view that led to memory errors when parsing large files such as the 1.4GB Craigslist vehicles dataset #90
• Added ability to have no quote character #83
• Changed VariableColumnPolicy::IGNORE to IGNORE_ROW to avoid clashing with IGNORE macro as defined by WinBase.h #96
