<p>The high level API (package: org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel)
<p>The high level API (package: org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel)
is what most people should use. Usage is very simple.
</p>
<p>Workbooks are created by creating an instance of
org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook.
org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Workbook. Either create
a concrete class directly
(org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook or
org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFWorkbook), or use
the handy factory class
org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.WorkbookFactory.
</p>
<p>Sheets are created by calling createSheet() from an existing
instance of HSSFWorkbook, the created sheet is automatically added in
instance of Workbook, the created sheet is automatically added in
sequence to the workbook. Sheets do not in themselves have a sheet
name (the tab at the bottom); you set
the name associated with a sheet by calling
HSSFWorkbook.setSheetName(sheetindex,&quot;SheetName&quot;,encoding).
The name may be in 8bit format (HSSFWorkbook.ENCODING_COMPRESSED_UNICODE)
or Unicode (HSSFWorkbook.ENCODING_UTF_16). Default encoding is 8bit per char.
Workbook.setSheetName(sheetindex,&quot;SheetName&quot;,encoding).
For HSSF, the name may be in 8bit format
(HSSFWorkbook.ENCODING_COMPRESSED_UNICODE)
or Unicode (HSSFWorkbook.ENCODING_UTF_16). Default
encoding for HSSF is 8bit per char. For XSSF, the name
is automatically handled as unicode.
</p>
<p>Rows are created by calling createRow(rowNumber) from an existing
instance of HSSFSheet. Only rows that have cell values should be
instance of Sheet. Only rows that have cell values should be
added to the sheet. To set the row's height, you just call
setRowHeight(height) on the row object. The height must be given in
twips, or 1/20th of a point. If you prefer, there is also a
setRowHeightInPoints method.
</p>
<p>Cells are created by calling createCell(column, type) from an
existing HSSFRow. Only cells that have values should be added to the
existing Row. Only cells that have values should be added to the
row. Cells should have their cell type set to either
HSSFCell.CELL_TYPE_NUMERIC or HSSFCell.CELL_TYPE_STRING depending on
Cell.CELL_TYPE_NUMERIC or Cell.CELL_TYPE_STRING depending on
whether they contain a numeric or textual value. Cells must also have
a value set. Set the value by calling setCellValue with either a
String or double as a parameter. Individual cells do not have a
width; you must call setColumnWidth(colindex, width) (use units of
1/256th of a character) on the HSSFSheet object. (You can't do it on
1/256th of a character) on the Sheet object. (You can't do it on
an individual basis in the GUI either).</p>
<p>Cells are styled with HSSFCellStyle objects which in turn contain
a reference to an HSSFFont object. These are created via the
HSSFWorkbook object by calling createCellStyle() and createFont().
<p>Cells are styled with CellStyle objects which in turn contain
a reference to an Font object. These are created via the
Workbook object by calling createCellStyle() and createFont().
Once you create the object you must set its parameters (colors,
borders, etc). To set a font for an HSSFCellStyle call
borders, etc). To set a font for an CellStyle call
setFont(fontobj).
</p>
<p>Once you have generated your workbook, you can write it out by

<section><title>XSSF and SAX (Event API)</title>
<p>If memory footprint is an issue, then for XSSF, you can get at
the underlying XML data, and process it yourself. This is intended
for intermediate developers who are willing to learn a little bit of
low level structure of .xlsx files, and who are happy processing
XML in java. Its relatively simple to use, but requires a basic
understanding of the file structure. The advantage provided is that
you can read a XLSX file with a relatively small memory footprint.
</p>
<p>One important thing to note with the basic Event API is that it
triggers events only for things actually stored within the file.
With the XLSX file format, it is quite common for things that
have yet to be edited to simply not exist in the file. This means
there may well be apparent "gaps" in the record stream, which
you need to work around.</p>
<p>To use this API you construct an instance of
org.apache.poi.xssf.eventmodel.XSSFReader. This will optionally
provide a nice interace on the shared strings table, and the styles.
It provides methods to get the raw xml data from the rest of the
file, which you will then pass to SAX.</p>
<p>This example shows how to get at a single known sheet, or at
all sheets in the file. It is based on the example in svn
src/examples/src/org/apache/poi/xssf/eventusermodel/exmaples/FromHowTo.java</p>
