rawValues

Detailed Property Reference

Namespace: Canley.Utility.CSV.Standard
Class: CSVRecord

Definition

public Dictionary<string, string> rawValues { get; }

• Description: The internal shadow dictionary storing raw string data for unmapped columns.

• Workflow:

  1. Hydration: Populated during CSV parsing with any column values that do not map directly to explicit class properties.
  2. Access: Provides direct read access to unmapped or custom row data for flexible runtime processing.

• Returns: Dictionary<string, string> - The dictionary of raw string key-value pairs.

• Example:

public void InspectUnmappedData(CSVRecord record)
{
    if (record.rawValues.TryGetValue("CustomField", out string value))
    {
        Debug.Log(message: $"Found unmapped custom field value: {value}");
    }
}

TIP

Use rawValues when your CSV contains dynamic or extensible columns that are not hardcoded into your strongly-typed record class.
