i found a simpler way round this, i read somewhere that open office simply
converted .rtf files to .doc, so i just handle it using the rtf handler, but
i wanted to do it so it would try handling it with poi, in case it catches a
IllegalPropertySetDataException, to handle it with rtf handler, but it
always gives me the exception...
Example of what i'm trying to do:
try {
content = docextractor.getText();
} catch (IllegalPropertySetDataException ipsde) {
try {
DefaultStyledDocument styledDoc = new
DefaultStyledDocument();
new RTFEditorKit().read(fisdoc, styledDoc, 0);
content = styledDoc.getText(0, styledDoc.getLength());
} catch (BadLocationException ble) {
return;
}
finally {
return;
}
I don't know if there's any "bad programming in this", for now i just wanted
it to work :p
thank you,
chris
