Description
TCSVHandler is the base class for class
TCSVParser which allows you to read a CSV file,
and class
TCSVBuilder which allows you to write a CSV file. It defines some common properties for
these classes, mainly to describe the formatting of the CSV file, such as the
Delimiter
or
QuoteChar and
LineEnding properties.
Normally you will not create an instance of TCSVHandler,
instead you will create a TCSVParser or TCSVBuilder instance.
