Hi Rob,
I've discussed this with Yegor who is currently focused on XSSF. The
HSSF methods were in progress when we made the decision to help with
OOXML efforts:
Dave:
There has been a lot of interest in style table management on the
user list lately. What are your plans?
Will the XSSF version of StyleTables be available in HSSF?
Yegor:
Certainly there will be improvements in HSSF style management. One
of the things to make the caching more effective is to implement the
standard Java "equals", "clone" and "hashCode" methods. Then we can
leverage Java containers to store styles and fulfill many of user
requests.
But all these improvement will be after 3.5-FINAL. I just don't have
time to work on both HSSF and XSSF.
If anyone wants to volunteer to get these into HSSF for 3.5-FINAL (in
a month) please go ahead and submit patches to Bugzilla!
Thanks.
Regards,
Dave

Hey wait. The same thing's true for HSSFCellStyle:cloneStyleFrom.
It's
documented at the online site, but not in the 3.1 or 3.2-FINAL
distros.
I'm guessing that the online documentation must be for a yet-to-be-
released
version. Odd, though, that they'd have the default online
documentation not
apply to the current stable version.
Andrew, didn't you say in one of your previous posts that you had used
cloneStyleFrom in the past?
