I am looking for a (preferably)free Java library that outputs data stored in variable (viz list of list) to a csv file.
I saw a commercial library by RiceBridge where they talk of all kinds of special cases that their library takes care of — is there any free library that also does the same?
Alternatively, what are the special cases that I should handle, if I want to create my own csv writer library?
Reading csv is difficult, writing is not. You can just enquote all values with double quotes and replace double quotes in your field values by double double quotes.
