SYMPTOM(s):
When using QUOTER with the -d option and there are unmatched quotes in the file QUOTER will ignore delimiter instances until the next double-quote is found
Quoter with delimiter option doesn't ignore quotes
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress/OpenEdge Versions
OpenEdge Category: Language (4GL/ABL)
CAUSE:
Bug# OE00046571
CAUSE:
This is expected behavior. Quoter was designed to respect existing quoted strings in a file and not add extra quotes around them so once a double-quote is encountered in a file quoter sleeps until it finds the next double-quote and then starts looking for the next delimiter.
FIX:
Remove stray quotes from the file before passing through quoter.
