[okkhoy]

We will use this issue to track all requests to use third party libraries or frameworks. Please list the library you wish to use as a comment below (including a link to the homepage of the library).

General guidelines for using third-party frameworks/libraries

All thrid-party frameworks and/or libraries have to be approved by the teaching team.

• They should be free, open-source, and have permissive license terms
  • Trial version of libraries that require purchase after N days are not allowed
• They should not require any installation by the user of your software
• They should not violate other constraints

Once the library is approved

• Once a library is approve for one team, it stands approved for the entire class
  • No need to seek permission again for an approved library
• Ensure that you use the libraries within the provided usage terms
  • Some libraries, though free/open-sourced, have certain usage restrictions

Hi prof,

My group would like to request to use the opencsv library. http://opencsv.sourceforge.net/

Regards, Jit Wei

[okkhoy]

@jitwei98 Approved 👍 However, ensure that you don't use CSV as tables and SQL-like queries to work on the data (this would be violating the project constraints)

[jitwei98]

@okkhoy Thanks! No worries, we will just use it to import/export contacts.
