import 'package:chilkat/chilkat.dart';

void main() {
  // This example program loads a file (japanese.csv)

  final csv = CkCsv();

  // Prior to loading the CSV file, indicate that the 1st row
  // should be treated as column names:
  csv.hasColumnNames = true;

  // Load the CSV records from the file.
  // Important: Make sure to call LoadFile2 so that the charset (utf-8)
  // of the CSV file can be indicated.
  try {
    csv.loadFile2('qa_data/csv/japanese.csv', 'utf-8');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // Display the contents of the 3rd column
  final n = csv.numRows;
  for (var row = 0; row < n; row++) {
    print(csv.getCell(row, 2));
