           Summary: NullPointerException trying to place a page break
           Product: POI
           Version: 2.5
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HSSF
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


This error only happens when trying to insert page break in an existing 
workbook, like in

HSSFWorkbook book = new HSSFWorkbook(new FileInputStream(existingFileName));
HSSFSheet sheet = book.getSheetAt(0);
sheet.setRowBreak(10);

When doing same thing with a new workbook, it works:

HSSFWorkbook book = new HSSFWorkbook();
HSSFSheet sheet = book.createSheet("Test");
sheet.setRowBreak(10);

The reason is that the rowBreaks property of Sheet is only initialized for new 
sheets (the createSheet() call). If an existing sheet (createSheet(List, int, 
int) call) doesn't have any records for page breaks, then rowBreaks doesn't 
get initialized, resulting in an NPE.

Possible resolution: either initialize rowBreaks during createSheet call, or 
do a null check in setRowBreak()
