```
public class CSVReader
extends java.lang.Object
```
This class parses a CSV InputStream to a list of maps. Each list entry represents a line of the stream and each entry in the map is a parsed CSV field. By default, the reader ignores comments and empty lines. The format of the CSV-source is expected as defined in RFC-4180. Separator and comment chars can differ from the ones in rfc.
Use of this CSVReader:
1. Create the Reader
  csvreader = new CSVReader(inputStream, null ); //null for default encoding
  Use the constructor to set the encoding and the stream. There are also other constructors available.
2. Configure the Reader
  Example: csvreader.setTextSeparator('?');
  If you skip this step, following defaults are set:
  - commentOut = '#' //chars for comment lines
  - fieldseparator = ';' //separate the CSV fields
  - textseparator = '\"' //enclose a CSV text
  - showComments = false //all comment line are ignored
  - toSkip = 0 //there will be no lines ignored
  ATTENTION: If toSkip is set to 3 the first 3 lines of data are skipped, regardless if they are empty lines, comments, real header or data lines!
3. Use the Reader
```
 ArrayList i_am_the_parsed_csv_stream = new ArrayList();
 while (csvreader.readNextLine())
 {
        i_am_the_parsed_csv_stream.add(csvreader.getLine());
 }
 
```
  After this while loop the ArrayList contains all parsed CSV lines. Each line is a Map of the parsed CSV fields. See parseLine(String) for the setup of the map.
4. Close the Reader
  Do not forget to call csvreader.close() to close the reader.
