cybernations_file_parser
C# parser for CyberNations Statistics files
This is a quick and dirty generic file parser that will use the header line of the input file to attempt to populate fields on the underlying model. Note that the CyberNations Stats files do use column headers with whitespace in them "Alliance ID", so we compress these by stripping whitespace. Each model can optionally override the CNColumnMapper() method to create it's own mappings between the CyberNations column name and the model. In the models included here, I've done that in a few places to support standardized C# UCamelCase naming conventions (e.g. AllianceID to AllianceId).
The parser itself should not need to be modified if additional columns are added in the future to the CN Stats files, as it looks for properties using Reflection. However, your models will obviously have to change in order to support additional fields of changes to column names.
Possible TODO: Allow the suppression of columns that you don't care about in your models.
