public class TextDelimited
extends TextLine
```
Class TextDelimited is a sub-class of TextLine. It provides direct support for delimited text files, like TAB (\t) or COMMA (,) delimited files. It also optionally allows for quoted values.
TextDelimited may also be used to skip the "header" in a file, where the header is defined as the very first line in every input file. That is, if the byte offset of the current line from the input is zero (0), that line will be skipped.
It is assumed if sink/source fields is set to either Fields.ALL or Fields.UNKNOWN and skipHeader or hasHeader is true, the field names will be retrieved from the header of the file and used during planning. The header will parsed with the same rules as the body of the file.
By default headers are not skipped.
TextDelimited may also be used to write a "header" in a file. The fields names for the header are taken directly from the declared fields. Or if the declared fields are Fields.ALL or Fields.UNKNOWN, the resolved field names will be used, if any.
By default headers are not written.
If hasHeaders is set to true on a constructor, both skipHeader and writeHeader will be set to true.
By default this Scheme is both strict and safe.
Strict meaning if a line of text does not parse into the expected number of fields, this class will throw a TapException. If strict is false, then Tuple will be returned with null values for the missing fields.
Safe meaning if a field cannot be coerced into an expected type, a null will be used for the value. If safe is false, a TapException will be thrown.
Also by default, quote strings are not searched for to improve processing speed. If a file is COMMA delimited but may have COMMA's in a value, the whole value should be surrounded by the quote string, typically double quotes (").
Note all empty fields in a line will be returned as null unless coerced into a new type.
This Scheme may source/sink Fields.ALL, when given on the constructor the new instance will automatically default to strict == false as the number of fields parsed are arbitrary or unknown. A type array may not be given either, so all values will be returned as Strings.
By default, all text is encoded/decoded as UTF-8. This can be changed via the charsetName constructor argument.
To override field and line parsing behaviors, sub-class DelimitedParser or provide a FieldTypeResolver implementation.
Note that there should be no expectation that TextDelimited, or specifically DelimitedParser, can handle all delimited and quoted combinations reliably. Attempting to do so would impair its performance and maintainability.
Further, it can be safely said any corrupted files will not be supported for obvious reasons. Corrupted files may result in exceptions or could cause edge cases in the underlying java regular expression engine.
A large part of Cascading was designed to help users cleans data. Thus the recommendation is to create Flows that are responsible for cleansing large data-sets when faced with the problem
DelimitedParser maybe sub-classed and extended if necessary.
