Bug ID: 69860
Summary: Data validation with explicit list of values should
trim the values
Product: POI
Version: 5.4.1-FINAL
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: HSSF
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Excel takes a comma-separated list of values for list validation. Sometimes
people type a space after the comma, and Excel ignores it (and validates by the
trimmed values) but POI doesn't.
Relevant classes/methods: DataValidationEvaluator.isValidCell,
DataValidationConstraint.getExplicitListValues, DVConstraint.createDVConstraint
This seems to be done better in XSSF (see
XSSFDataValidationConstraint.LIST_SPLIT_REGEX, though it only trims around
commas? I haven't tested it) but not in HSSF.
