I would like to export a Java Bean or ResultSet(JDBC) into a CSV file through Reflection mechanism.
I have seen this api :
http://opencsv.sourceforge.net/apidocs/au/com/bytecode/opencsv/bean/BeanToCsv.html
but it’s not released yet.
Also, it will be fine if we can set some filters to avoid to map some precised fields.
Do you know a known API which owns these features ?
Unless there are some ready-made API:s I would use
Apache commons http://commons.apache.org/lang/api-2.4/org/apache/commons/lang/builder/ReflectionToStringBuilder.html to get a String representation of an JavaBean. By setting your own
ToStringStyleit would be possible to create a CSV style String. There are many possible settings for styling of the String, including excluding fields and so on.And then of course writing it to a file.
