Hi all,
i'm using POI 2.5.1 to create and read XLS files.
The xls file lifecycle is:
- creation in my Java app;
- activeSync'ing to a handheld device --> xls gets
converted to Pocket Excel pxl format
- modifying the file on the handheld
- Active syncing back to the PC --> pxl file gets
re-converted to xls Excel 97/2000 format.
Then I try to read the xls with my java app.
I used the code in the example at HSSF:
...
FileInputStream inputStream = new
FileInputStream(fileName);
POIFSFileSystem fs = new POIFSFileSystem(
inputStream );
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(fs);
...
I get the following exception:
java.io.IOException: Unable to read entire block; 295
bytes read; expected 512 bytes

org.apache.poi.poifs.storage.RawDataBlock.<init>(RawDataBlock.java:98)

org.apache.poi.poifs.storage.RawDataBlockList.<init>(RawDataBlockList.java:88)
at
org.apache.poi.poifs.filesystem.POIFSFileSystem.<init>(POIFSFileSystem.java:123)
at ....
I found that if I open the problematic xls file with
Excel and re-save it, it all works fine.
I cannot do that in production! ;-) I need to parse
the file directly through my app.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated!
Thank you all in advance!
Luca.
