<p>The POI project is the master project for developing pure
|
|
|
|
Java ports of file formats based on Microsoft's OLE 2 Compound
|
|
|
|
Document Format. OLE 2 Compound Document Format is used by
|
|
|
|
Microsoft Office Documents, as well as by programs using MFC
|
|
|
|
property sets to serialize their document objects.

<link href="utils/index.html">POI-Utils</link> are general purpose artifacts
|

from POI development that have not yet been implemented elsewhere. We're
|
|
|
|
always looking to donate these and maintain them as part of a general library
|
|
|
|
used in another project. These are things we need to complete our mission but
|
|
|
|
are generally outside of it.
