Re: Apache POI, .xlsx export filter, and missing used cell iteration APIs in Calc

2015-12-24 Thread Dave Fisher
Hi,

I am really glad you are looking into POI. I have been waiting for interest. I 
am on both the POI and OpenOffice PMCs. The support for each Office document 
format varies with the people volunteering. Excel is the most complete format 
with support for reading, writing and calculation. There is even a low memory 
model. There is new support for Visio. Text extraction is a popular use of POI. 
If you are using Apache Solr and Apache Tika you are also using POI.

I recommend that you take a look at POI's unit tests for OOXML use cases. This 
is due to how POI creates a lite version of the OOXML jar. Any object used in a 
unit test is included.

If you have POI questions you are likely to get answers on either the user or 
the dev mailing lists.

Regards,
Dave

​Thanks. This seems much more stringent  to the wording on the acceptable
3rd pa​
​rty licensing page where only a reference in a NOTICE file to the original
work is required. I will investigate further before changing anything.

I've found it mentioned here, even though this is not a policy page:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/privacy.html
"The ASF only accepts voluntary contributions of software and 
documentation that are expressly licensed to The ASF under an approved 
open source license".


That said, if you still wish to edit the page I'm not opposing. I simply 
pointed out that it is correct as it is now. If we reword it the way you 
propose, it will still be correct.

  Andrea.

Only now, briefly. Seems to have a nice API, reminiscent of JAXB.



Also, where can I find info on the XLSX format without paying for the ISO

http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-376.htm seems
to have it available for free download. I haven't downloaded it and don't
intend to, as I don't even remotely deal with OOXML or XML in this filter -
Apache POI does that, which is the only reason I am trying this.


Okay Now I understand.

Thank you for the link !




Thanks,
Carl



Thank you
