java - ResultSet returns blank column in CSV -

i'm using jooq , postgres. in postgres have column gender:

 'gender' gender, 

(the table view , gender column placeholder value gets calculated in java)

in java when .fetch() view, calculations on each record:

     (record r : skillrecords) {             idnumber=function(r)             r.set(id, idnumber);             r.set(gender,getgender(idnumber));         } 

all looks , if println values they're correct. however, when call intoresultset() on skillsrecord, gender column has asterisks next values, eg "*male".

then, use resultset input opencsv csv writer , when open csv gender column comes out null.

any suggestions?

update:

following input lukas regarding asterisks, realise issue opencsv.

my code follows:

        file tempfile = new file("/tmp/file.csv");          bufferedwriter out = new bufferedwriter(new filewriter(tempfile));         csvwriter writer = new csvwriter(out);         //code getting records sits here      (record r : skillrecords) {         idnumber=function(r)         r.set(id, idnumber);         r.set(gender,getgender(idnumber));     }         writer.writeall(skillrecords.intoresultset(), true);         return tempfile; 

all columsn in csv come expected, except gender column, has header "gender" column values empty. have necessary try/catches in code above i've excluded them brevity.

the asterisk in *male

the asterisk see in resultset.tostring() output (or in result.tostring()) reflects record's internal record.changed(field) flag, i.e. information on each record says record modified after retrieved form database (which did).

that visual information can safely ignore.
