In this PR I made sure that the csv file exists from csv_config_set_path() before any further steps.

If the file does not exist, we show an error message and exit, we don't need to go any further, this check allows me to remove code that checks the file every time as we are sure now from the beginning that it exists.

Walkthrough

The changes introduce a file existence check in the CSV configuration logic, ensuring the specified file exists before proceeding. Platform-specific macros are added for compatibility. Separately, error handling for file opening failures is removed from the CSV reader initialization functions, allowing potential NULL file pointers. Whitespace cleanup is also performed.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
csv_config.c Added platform-specific includes/macros for file existence checks; added runtime file existence validation in csv_config_set_path; minor whitespace cleanup.
csv_reader.c Removed error handling for failed fopen calls in initialization functions; performed whitespace cleanup.

Estimated code review effort

Poem

The rabbit checks the file is there,
Before it hops along with care.
No more early reader fright—
If fopen fails, it’s out of sight!
With tidy code and platform flair,
The CSVs are handled fair.

78-78: Same file opening issue as in csv_reader_init_with_config.

Like the previous function, this removes error handling for fopen() failure, which could result in a reader with a NULL file pointer being returned.

48-48: Clean whitespace formatting.

Good cleanup of trailing whitespace.

Also applies to: 51-51, 57-57, 60-60, 68-68


144-144: Clean whitespace formatting throughout the file.

Good cleanup of trailing whitespace and blank lines.

Also applies to: 168-168, 173-173, 182-182, 196-196, 207-207, 212-212, 214-214, 215-215, 224-224, 230-230, 243-243, 246-246, 248-248, 256-256, 265-265, 275-275, 283-283, 288-288, 291-291, 293-293


16-16: Safe handling of NULL file pointers confirmed

The implementation of read_full_record and all CSV reader APIs guard against a NULL FILE*, so if fopen() fails the code will not crash:

• csv_parser.c – read_full_record immediately returns NULL if file is NULL (lines 202–205).
• csv_reader.c – All public functions (csv_reader_next_record, csv_reader_get_record_count, csv_reader_get_position, csv_reader_seek, csv_reader_has_next, csv_reader_rewind, csv_reader_free) check reader->file is non-NULL before using it.

No further error‐handling changes are required here.

csv_config.c (2)

1-8: Good cross-platform compatibility for file access.

The platform-specific includes and macro definitions properly handle the differences between Windows (_access) and Unix-like systems (access) for file existence checking.


15-15: Clean whitespace formatting.

Good cleanup of trailing whitespace throughout the file.

Also applies to: 18-18, 30-30, 42-42, 46-46, 170-170

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Consider less aggressive error handling than exit(1).

While the file existence check aligns with the PR objectives, calling exit(1) directly is quite aggressive and prevents graceful error handling by the caller. Additionally, there are a couple of issues:

  1. The error message lacks a newline character
  2. The validation occurs before checking if path is NULL (though access() should handle NULL safely)

Consider returning an error code instead of terminating the program:

-void csv_config_set_path(CSVConfig *config, const char *path) {
+int csv_config_set_path(CSVConfig *config, const char *path) {
+    if (!path) return 0;
+    
     if (access(path, F_OK) != 0) {
-        printf("Error: File %s does not exist!", path);
-        exit(1);
+        printf("Error: File %s does not exist!\n", path);
+        return 0;
     }

     if (config && path) {
         strncpy(config->path, path, MAX_PATH_LENGTH - 1);
         config->path[MAX_PATH_LENGTH - 1] = '\0';
     }
+    return 1;
 }

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In csv_config.c around lines 121 to 125, the code checks file existence but
calls exit(1) on failure, which is too aggressive and prevents graceful error
handling. Also, the error message lacks a newline and the NULL check for path is
missing. Fix this by first checking if path is NULL and returning an error code
if so, then check file existence with access(), and if the file does not exist,
print the error message with a newline and return an error code instead of
calling exit(1). This allows the caller to handle errors more gracefully.
