always getting a \r\n at the end of my string with StringWriter

[madquantum81]

Hello,
When I create a csv string with a StringWriter, I always get a \r\n at the end of that string.. Is there a way to remove it?

Heres my config

var csvConfig = new CsvConfiguration(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
{
HasHeaderRecord = false,
TrimOptions = TrimOptions.Trim,
};

Thanks!

How are you doing the writing?

[madquantum81]

yeah but why its generating a \r\n after the last item? Is there a way to not have a carriage return a the end?

You'll have to write manually if you want to do that.

void Main()
{
    var records = new List<Foo>
    {
        new Foo { Id = 1, Name = "one" },
    };
    var config = new CsvConfiguration(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
    {
    };
    using (var writer = new StringWriter())
    using (var csv = new CsvWriter(writer, config))
    {
        csv.WriteHeader<Foo>();
        foreach (var record in records)
        {
            csv.NextRecord();
            csv.WriteRecord(record);
        }

        csv.Flush();
        writer.ToString().ToCharArray().Dump();
    }
}

private class Foo
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

NextRecord writes the line ending.

ok nice!

The /r/n now is at the beginning so I ended up with

for (int i = 0; i < listData.Count; i++)
{
if (i > 0)
{
csv.NextRecord();
}
csv.WriteRecord(listData[i]);
}

working fine! thanks for your help!

Forgot you weren't writing the header. Great!
