CSV Type Provider does not support RFC4180 #194

Closed Rickasaurus closed 11 years ago

Rickasaurus commented 11 years ago

The spec can found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180 It seems to fail on quoted values and, after I peeked at the code, it seems it only supports floating point values

Also, Tomas's CSV provider in FSharp.Data is quite good, but needs to be modified to work with large CSV files. The inference can be quite slow.

Do you have a mini sample file?

I don't because the data I'm using is private, but if you just paste some some numbers and strings into excel and export as CSV it should suffice for the most common cases.

Won't fix it here.

But you should look into https://github.com/tpetricek/FSharp.Data/pull/9 ;-)
