CAS Formatting change

[vinayak1-coder]

What if in future the formatting of CAS is changes by CDSL or Kfintech will it work or not

[codereverser]

I can't guarantee that the current parser will support every future format change; It is, however built to handle most common changes. Column locations are parsed from table headers and cross checked with arithmetic. for eg:- units * nav ≈ value ; so minor layout changes usually keeps working.

If a change does break something, you should generally get a warning or error rather than silent wrong numbers.

If there is a significant structural re-design that requires a parser update, I can't always promise a timely fix, as this is a spare time project. If a format change affects you, an issue with details of what changed (no passwords, personal details redacted) is the fastest path to getting it supported.

Okay, so it is confirmed that the system will always provide the correct response (correct numbers). However, if the format changes, it will only result in an error.

[codereverser]

Not quite "always". The library does best-effort-detection, not a guarantee; it can't catch everything. The recent issues like #118 are proofs.
