See more CSV Examples

Load a CSV using comma delimiters and convert to a CSV using semicolon delimiters.

Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

    CkCsv csv = new CkCsv();

    success = csv.LoadFile2("qa_data/csv/csv_wit_comma_separators.csv","utf-8");
    if (success == false) {
        System.out.println(csv.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Note: Prior to Chilkat v9.5.0.89, setting the Delimiter property did not modify the already-existing
    // rows in the CSV.  Updating the Delimiter property in Chilkat v9.5.0.89 or greater will cause
    // all rows to be updated with the new delimiter.
    csv.put_Delimiter(";");

    System.out.println(csv.saveToString());
  }
