C/C++ CSV Parser
This project was created in order to enable a CSV parsing API for C programmers.
The CSV format is commonly easy to parse, but there are special cases which are less-trivial, and that makes it recommended to use a standard tested parser

Usage Example

#include <stdio.h>

#include "csvparser.h"

int main() {
    int i =  0;
    //                                   file, delimiter, first_line_is_header?
    CsvParser *csvparser = CsvParser_new("Book1.csv", ",", 1);
    CsvRow *header;
    CsvRow *row;

    header = CsvParser_getHeader(csvparser);
    if (header == NULL) {
        printf("%s\n", CsvParser_getErrorMessage(csvparser));
        return 1;
    }
    char **headerFields = CsvParser_getFields(header);
    for (i = 0 ; i < CsvParser_getNumFields(header) ; i++) {
        printf("TITLE: %s\n", headerFields[i]);
    }
    while ((row = CsvParser_getRow(csvparser)) ) {
        printf("NEW ROW\n");
        char **rowFields = CsvParser_getFields(row);
        for (i = 0 ; i < CsvParser_getNumFields(row) ; i++) {
            printf("FIELD: %s\n", rowFields[i]);
        }
        CsvParser_destroy_row(row);
    }
    CsvParser_destroy(csvparser);
    return 0;
}
