[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #50619] textscan weird behaviour when reading a csv

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #50619 (project octave):

To the original poster, the following mods work for me (add new line to the
delimiters and increase the buffer size):


provaPath = 'testfile.csv'
file = fopen(provaPath);
formatSpec = '%s %s %s %s %s %s %s';
[col_headers, pos1] = textscan(file, formatSpec, 1, 'Delimiter', ";\n",
'BufSize', 4096);
formatSpec = '%f %f %f %f %f %f %f';
[logLine, pos2] = textscan(file, formatSpec, 1, 'Delimiter', ";\n", 'BufSize',
4096);
fclose(file);


It's not a bug fix, but if you keep your string lengths well below 4096, the
above should work.
