### jsoncons::csv::basic_csv_cursor

```cpp
#include <jsoncons_ext/csv/csv_cursor.hpp>

template<
    typename CharT,
    typename Source=jsoncons::stream_source<CharT>,
    typename Allocator=std::allocator<char>> basic_csv_cursor;
```

A pull parser for reporting CSV parse events. A typical application will 
repeatedly process the `current()` event and call the `next()`
function to advance to the next event, until `done()` returns **true**.
In addition, when positioned on a `begin_object` event, 
the `read_to` function can pull a complete object representing
the events from `begin_object` to `end_object`, 
and when positioned on a `begin_array` event, a complete array
representing the events from `begin_array` ro `end_array`.

`basic_csv_cursor` is noncopyable and nonmoveable.

Aliases for common character types are provided:

Constructors (1)-(2) read from a character sequence or stream source and throw a 
[ser_error](../corelib/ser_error.md) if a parsing error is encountered while processing the initial event.

Constructors (3)-(7) read from a character sequence or stream source and set `ec`
if a parsing error is encountered while processing the initial event.

Note: It is the programmer's responsibility to ensure that `basic_csv_cursor` does not outlive the source  
passed in the constuctor, as `basic_csv_cursor` holds pointers to but does not own this resource.

#### Parameters

`source` - a value from which a `jsoncons::basic_string_view<char_type>` is constructible, 
or a value from which a `source_type` is constructible. In the case that a `jsoncons::basic_string_view<char_type>` is constructible
from `source`, `source` is dispatched immediately to the parser. Otherwise, the `csv_cursor` reads from a `source_type` in chunks. 

#### Member functions

    bool done() const override;
Checks if there are no more events.

    const basic_staj_event& current() const override;
Returns the current [basic_staj_event](../corelib/staj_event.md).

    void read_to(json_visitor& visitor) override
Feeds the current and succeeding [staj events](basic_staj_event.md) through the provided
[visitor](basic_json_visitor.md), until the visitor indicates
to stop. If a parsing error is encountered, throws a [ser_error](../corelib/ser_error.md).

    void read_to(basic_json_visitor<char_type>& visitor,
                std::error_code& ec) override
Feeds the current and succeeding [staj events](basic_staj_event.md) through the provided
[visitor](basic_json_visitor.md), until the visitor indicates
to stop. If a parsing error is encountered, sets `ec`.

    void next() override;
Advances to the next event. If a parsing error is encountered, throws a 
[ser_error](../corelib/ser_error.md).

    void next(std::error_code& ec) override;
Advances to the next event. If a parsing error is encountered, sets `ec`.

    const ser_context& context() const override;
Returns the current [context](../corelib/ser_context.md)

    void reset();
Reset cursor to read another value from the same source

    template <typename Sourceable>
    reset(Sourceable&& source)
Reset cursor to read new value from a new sources

#### Non-member functions

    template <typename CharT,typename Source,typename Allocator>
    basic_staj_filter_view<CharT> operator|(basic_csv_cursor<CharT,Source,Allocator>& cursor, 
        std::function<bool(const basic_staj_event<CharT>&, const ser_context&)> pred);
