I know there are several libraries of code out there that can parse CSV files according to the standard, but, for various reasons, I need one simple routine (not an entire library) that parses a CSV into a DataTable or array. Does such an animal exist or is it extinct? (Preferably C# but i can translate vb.net too) ...
Anyone having any experience using the Norken Technologies Parser Development Toolkit ?

Hi, I need to parse a file in TSV format (tab separated values). I use a regex to break down the file into each line, but I cannot find a satisfying one to parse each line. For now I've come up this: (?<g>("[^"]+")+|[^\t]+) But it does not work if an item in the line has more than 2 consecutive double quotes. Here's how the file is ...
Hello I have a very large SQL script and while trying to execute it I get an error from PostgreSQL about a duplicate primary key. It does not give a line number of anything for where the duplicate entry occurs (it is also wrapped in a transaction, so it doesn't know about the duplicate until commit; at the end of the file. Basically, co...

I'm developing an application for an old phone which is running java 1.4 and it's not upgradeable. I can't find any library for XML parsign that is compatible with such an old java runtime. Any idea? Thanks! ...
Most of the posts that I read pertaining to these utilities usually suggest using some other method to obtain the same effect. For example, questions mentioning these tools usual have at least one answer containing some of the following: Use the boost library (insert appropriate boost library here) Don't create a DSL use (insert favor...
Hi I have an XML (in the form of tree), I require to create sub-tree out of it. For ex: <a> <b> <c>Hello</c> <d> <e>Hi</e> </a> Subtree would be <root> <a> <b> <c>Hello</c> </b> </a> <a> <d> <e>Hi</e> </d> </a> </root> What is the best XML library in python to do it? Any algorithm that already does...
There are lots of fragments out there detailing bits and pieces of the parse transform process in Erlang, but none I've found offer complete coverage from motivation to execution. Is there a good tutorial I'm missing somewhere and, if so, where can it be found? ...
I have downloaded the web page into an html file. I am wondering what's the simplest way to get the content of that page. By content, I mean I need the strings that a browser would display. To be clear: Input: <html><head><title>Page title</title></head> <body><p id="firstpara" align="center">This is paragraph <b>one</b>. ...
My company has a problem: we suspect that the NACHA files we are receiving from one of our application service providers that we use to draw money from our clients are incorrect. We have all of the ACH agreements and legal mumbo-jumbo in place, so it's not a problem with our use of the ACH network, and we're not receiving word from the...
Hi, I'm trying to parse some data returned by a 3rd party app (a TSV file). I have all the data neatly parsed into each fields (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2410788/parse-a-tsv-file), but I don't know how to format some fields. Sometimes the data in a field is encapsulated like this: =T("[FIELD_DATA]") (That's some sort of ...
Is it possible to generate a parse tree at the same time as I use recursive descent parser to check if the data matches grammar? If so, what approach would I use to build a tree as I recursively descent? Thanks, Boda Cydo. Note: I am new to parsing. (Asked several questions on SO already, and I am getting better with it.) ...
I have written a simple C++ shell program to parse large XML files and fix syntax errors. I have so far covered everything I can think of except strings within strings, for example. <ROOT> <NODE attribute="This is a "string within" a string" /> <ROOT> My program loops through the entire xml file character by character(keeping only ...
I'm trying to parse an XML file using C. The DTD for this XML file is fairly simple. It's basically a bunch of key-value pairs, with support for arrays as well. I've found XML parsers like Mini-XML and AsmXml, but they don't seem to support building a linked-list of the XML file based on the DTD. Is there an XML parsing library availab...
What's the popular tool people use in Unix to parse/analyze log files? Doing counting, find unique, select/copy certain line which have certain patterns. Please advise some tools or some keyword. Since I believe there must be similar questions asked before, but I don't any idea about the keywords. Thanks. ...
The problem: You have some data and your program needs specified input. For example strings which are numbers. You are searching for a way to transform the original data in a format you need. And the problem is: The source can be anything. It can be XML, property lists, binary which contains the needed data deeply embedded in binary junk...
