Release Notes -- Apache POI -- Version 3.8
|
||||
|
||||
Introduction
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Apache POI is well-known in the Java field as a library for reading and
|
||||
writing Microsoft Office file formats, such as Excel, PowerPoint, Visio and
|
||||
Word. See http://poi.apache.org/ for more details
|
||||
|
||||
Apache POI 3.8 is an incremental feature release based on and
|
||||
compatible with earlier POI 3.8-beta* releases. POI 3.8 is considered stable and recommended for production use.
|
||||
|
||||
Release highlights:
|
||||
|
||||
* NPOIFS: NIO driven API to read OLE2 filesystems with low memory footprint.
|
||||
* SXSSF: a low-memory footprint API built on top of XSSF that can be used when very large spreadsheets have to be produced, and heap space is limited
|
||||
* poi-excelant: Ant tasks for running POI against a workbook
|
||||
* Supported evaluation of new Excel formulas: IRR,NPV,MROUND,VAR,VARP,CLEAN,CHAR,ADDRESS,HOUR,MINUTE,SECOND,RATE,WORKDAY,NETWORKDAYS,SUMIFS,RANK
|
||||
* XSLF usermodel API: POI's implementation of the PowerPoint 2007 OOXML (.xlsx) file format. XSLF provides a rich usermodel API and a PPTX2PNG utility to export slides to images.
|
||||
* WordToFO, WordToHtml and WordToText converters: utilities to export MS Word .doc files into XSL-FO, html and text files. Output from WordToFO can be used to convert .doc files to pdf using Apache FOP.
|
||||
|
||||
Other notable changes:
|
||||
* Numerous improvements and refactorings in HWPF, Java API for MS Word .doc files: support for reading
|
||||
footnotes, endnotes and bookmarks, improved support for hadlings tables, paragraphs, text runs and much more...

||||
