Hi All, while trying to use the poi library for reading msoffice files it was failing on password protected files with strange exception (mainly InvocationTargetException) so I have made some changes and introduced new exception called PasswordProtectedException and put some rough hacks in the lib so it is thrown when strange exception appear. For the ppt files i found that rectype 51432 is presenting only on password protected files. For the xsl files there is smth strange cause a rectype 49 can be contained many times but in the RecordFactory.createMethod it is properly handled except when the file is password protected (I think that in this case the rectype shouldn't be 49). I'm attaching the patch containing the changes with some code commented (i hope it can be of help). It would be nice if some kind of exception for password protected files is added to the library.
