             Summary: The CSV file source needs to be a little more robust when handling multi-line CSV files
                 Key: CRUNCH-414
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRUNCH-414
             Project: Crunch
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 0.8.3
            Reporter: mac champion
            Assignee: Josh Wills
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.8.4


Brandon Inman recently reported an undesriable behavior in the CSV file source group of files. Currently, the CSVLineReader, if reading a malformed CSV file, can enter a state where it is perpetually waiting for an end-quote character. As he put it, "Malformed files are malformed files and should probably fail in some regard, but a hang is obviously undesirable." 

Essentially, the CSVLineReader needs to be tweaked in such a way that an informative exception is thrown after some threshold is reached, instead of basically just hanging.
