Apologies if this has been sorted, I'm not actually on the POI mailing
list - just getting into it.
It seems to me that the org.apache.poi.util.LittleEndian class doesn't cater
the for situation for ClassID as it returns numbers and not byte[] - so if
you use it's methods you still have to convert to a byte[] after.
I think the following version of ClassID should work:
==========> ClassID STARTS HERE
<=================================================================
package org.apache.poi.hpsf;
public class ClassID {
private byte[] bytes;
public ClassID(final byte[] src, final int offset) {
bytes = read(src, offset);
}
public final static int LENGTH = 16;
public int length() {
return LENGTH;
}
public byte[] getBytes() {
return bytes;
}
public byte[] read(byte[] src, int offset) {
byte[] dest = Util.copy(src, offset, 24);
int destOffset = 0;
int srcOffset = 0;
Util.copy(readField(src, offset, 8), 0, 8, dest, destOffset);
Util.copy(readField(src, offset += 8, 4), 0, 4, dest, destOffset +=
8);
Util.copy(readField(src, offset += 4, 4), 0, 4, dest, destOffset +=
4);
return dest;
}
public static byte[] readField(byte[] src, int offset, int lth) {
byte[] dest = new byte[lth];
for (int i = 0; i < lth; i++) {
dest[i] = src[offset + lth - 1 - i];
}
return dest;
}
}
