Re^3: text::csv output help

No, the documentation is correct.

$csv->print($fh, $_) for @rows;
[download]

and

$csv->print($fh, \@row);
[download]

make sense, but not

$csv->print($fh, $_) for \@rows;
[download]

I imagine that your @rows didn't actually contain rows.

@rows is supposed to contain a 2-d array? Can you give an example of the format? The error I get: "Expected fields to be an array ref at line x". Thx, Dave	[reply]

`print` expects a file handle and a reference to an array of field values. `my @row = qw( 1 2 3 4 5 'hello world'); $csv->print($fh, \@row);` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

What are the rows supposed to contain? How do you keep track of rows, they are all appearing on one line. Should I insert the "\n" character in somewhere? Otherwise I get the error: Expected fields to be an array ref at path line x. Say for example I wanted to make 2 rows of a CSV file, can you provide some code to do that? Regards, Dave	[reply]

`$csv->print (...)` only prints a newline if it is told to do so. You can tell it to do so either in the constructor `my $csv = Text::CSV->new ({ binary => 1, auto_diag => 1, eol => "\n" });` Or at a leter stage `my $csv = Text::CSV->new ({ binary => 1, auto_diag => 1 }); $csv->eol ("\r\n");` [download] Enjoy, Have FUN!
