HSSF

+Alternatives to HSSF +
+ +

+ +

+ + +
+ + + + + + + +
Alternatives
+
+ +

+ Maybe it's unwise to advertise your competitors but we believe + competition is good and we have the best support reading and + write Excel workbooks currently available. +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
ProductURLDescription
Formula One + www.tidestone.com + An alternative to this project is to + buy the $10,000 Formula 1 library + and accept its crude api and limitations.
Visual Basic + www.microsoft.com + Give up XML and write Visual Basic code on a Microsoft Windows based + Environment or output in Microsoft's beta and primarily undocumented + XML for office format.
JExcelhttp://stareyes.homeip.net:8888Frequently unavailable. Little currently known about it's capabilities.
JWorkbookhttp://www.object-refinery.com/jworkbook/index.htmlThis effort supports Gnumeric and Excel, however the Excel part is done using POI anyway.
xlReaderhttp://www.sourceforge.net/projects/xlrdProvides decent support for reading Excel.
Excel ODBC Driverhttp://www.nwlink.com/~leewal/content/exceljavasample.htmODBC offers a somewhat wierd method for using Excel.
ExtenXLShttp://www.extentech.com/products/ExtenXLS/docs/intro3.jspCommercial library for reading, modifying and writing Excel spreadsheets. Not cheap but + certainly a lot more affordable than Formula 1. No idea as to it's quality.
J-Integra Java-Excel Bridgehttp://www.intrinsyc.com/products/bridging/jintegra.aspUses DCOM to an Excel instance on a windows machine.
Perl & C-There are a number of perl and C libraries, however none of them are consistent.

Quick Guide to HSSF Features

+ +

+ +

+ + +
+ + + + + + + +
Quick Guide to Features
+
+ +

+ Want to use HSSF read and write spreadsheets in a hurry? This guide is for you. If you're after + more in-depth coverage of the HSSF user-API please consult the HOWTO + guide as it contains actual descriptions of how to use this stuff. +

+ + +
+ +
+ + + + + + + +
Features
+
+ + + +

New Workbook

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
+    FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+    wb.write(fileOut);
+    fileOut.close();
+
+
+
+ + + + +

New Sheet

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
+    HSSFSheet sheet1 = wb.createSheet("new sheet");
+    HSSFSheet sheet2 = wb.createSheet("second sheet");
+    FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+    wb.write(fileOut);
+    fileOut.close();
+
+
+
+ + + + +

Creating Cells

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
+    HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet("new sheet");
+
+    // Create a row and put some cells in it. Rows are 0 based.
+    HSSFRow row = sheet.createRow((short)0);
+    // Create a cell and put a value in it.
+    HSSFCell cell = row.createCell((short)0);
+    cell.setCellValue(1);
+
+    // Or do it on one line.
+    row.createCell((short)1).setCellValue(1.2);
+    row.createCell((short)2).setCellValue("This is a string");
+    row.createCell((short)3).setCellValue(true);
+
+    // Write the output to a file
+    FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+    wb.write(fileOut);
+    fileOut.close();
+
+
+
+ + + + +

Creating Date Cells

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
+    HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet("new sheet");
+
+    // Create a row and put some cells in it. Rows are 0 based.
+    HSSFRow row = sheet.createRow((short)0);
+
+    // Create a cell and put a date value in it.  The first cell is not styled
+    // as a date.
+    HSSFCell cell = row.createCell((short)0);
+    cell.setCellValue(new Date());
+
+    // we style the second cell as a date (and time).  It is important to
+    // create a new cell style from the workbook otherwise you can end up
+    // modifying the built in style and effecting not only this cell but other cells.
+    HSSFCellStyle cellStyle = wb.createCellStyle();
+    cellStyle.setDataFormat(HSSFDataFormat.getFormat("m/d/yy h:mm"));
+    cell = row.createCell((short)1);
+    cell.setCellValue(new Date());
+    cell.setCellStyle(cellStyle);
+
+    // Write the output to a file
+    FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+    wb.write(fileOut);
+    fileOut.close();
+
+
+
+ + + + +

Working with different types of cells

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
+    HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet("new sheet");
+    HSSFRow row = sheet.createRow((short)2);
+    row.createCell((short) 0).setCellValue(1.1);
+    row.createCell((short) 1).setCellValue(new Date());
+    row.createCell((short) 2).setCellValue("a string");
+    row.createCell((short) 3).setCellValue(true);
+    row.createCell((short) 4).setCellType(HSSFCell.CELL_TYPE_ERROR);
+
+    // Write the output to a file
+    FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+    wb.write(fileOut);
+    fileOut.close();
+
+
+
+ + + + +

Demonstrates various alignment options

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    public static void main(String[] args)
+            throws IOException
+    {
+        HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
+        HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet("new sheet");

+        createCell(wb, row, (short) 0, HSSFCellStyle.ALIGN_CENTER);
+        createCell(wb, row, (short) 1, HSSFCellStyle.ALIGN_CENTER_SELECTION);
+        createCell(wb, row, (short) 2, HSSFCellStyle.ALIGN_FILL);

+
+        // Write the output to a file
+        FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+        wb.write(fileOut);
+        fileOut.close();
+
+    }
+
+    /**

+     *
+     * @param wb        the workbook
+     * @param row       the row to create the cell in

+    style.setBorderTop(HSSFCellStyle.BORDER_MEDIUM_DASHED);
+    style.setTopBorderColor(HSSFCellStyle.AUTOMATIC);
+    cell.setCellStyle(style);
+
+    // Write the output to a file
+    FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("workbook.xls");
+    wb.write(fileOut);
+    fileOut.close();
+
+
+
+ + + + +

+ +
+ + + + +
+
+    HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
