Hello all,
I would like to propose a new method to be added to the POI API regarding
the excel sheets, some times I just need to know whether a certain cell in a
row is empty regardless to whether it is empty or blank, it really doesn't
matter if I created a blank cell instead of an empty cell so I would like to
suggest to add the following method
/**
* check if there's a value whether the cell in blank or empty
* @param row
* @param cellIndex
* @return boolean representing whether the cell is empty or not
*/
private static boolean isEmptyCell(Row row, int cellIndex) {
return row.getCell(cellIndex,
Row.CREATE_NULL_AS_BLANK).getCellType() == Cell.CELL_TYPE_BLANK;
}
Regards,
