func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This example program loads a file (japanese.csv)
    // that contains this content:
    // 
    // year,color,country,food
    // 2001,red,France,cheese
    // 2005,blue,"United States",hamburger
    // 2008,green,Italy,pasta
    // 1998,orange,Japan,sushi
    // 2010,silver,"太志","森田"
    // 

    let csv = CkoCsv()!

    // Prior to loading the CSV file, indicate that the 1st row
    // should be treated as column names:
    csv.hasColumnNames = true

    // Load the CSV records from the file.
    // Important: Make sure to call LoadFile2 so that the charset (utf-8)
    // of the CSV file can be indicated.
    success = csv.loadFile2(path: "qa_data/csv/japanese.csv", charset: "utf-8")
    if success != true {
        print("\(csv.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Display the contents of the 3rd column
    var row: Int
    var n: Int = csv.numRows.intValue
    for row = 0; row <= n - 1; row++ {
        print("\(csv.getCell(row: row, col: 2)!)")
    }
