QuickManifoldLoad

Loading Manifold (Multi record) file

To load manifold file, use ChoManifoldReader component to parse it. Sample below shows how to load file (sample.txt) containing delimited as well as fixed length data. In order to process this file successfully, you need to determine the identifier or logic to determine the type of record. In this sample, I'm going to specify any line with length of 90 will be fixed length record.

Load using iterator

using (var r = new ChoKVPManifoldReader(@"sample.txt")
                .WithCustomRecordSelector((l) =>
                {
                    if (l.Length == 90)
                        return typeof(FixedLengthEmp);
                    else
                        return typeof(CSVEmp);
                })
)
{
	foreach (var item in r)
	{
		Console.WriteLine(item.ToString());
	}
}

Load using loop

using (var r = new ChoManifoldReader(@"sample.txt")
                .WithCustomRecordSelector((l) =>
                {
                    if (l.Length == 90)
                        return typeof(FixedLengthEmp);
                    else
                        return typeof(CSVEmp);
                })
)
{
	object rec;
	while ((rec = r.Read()) != null)
	{
		Console.WriteLine(rec.ToString());
	}
}
