Field Detail

INITIAL_CAPACITY

public static final int INITIAL_CAPACITY

Used for compile-time optimization. This is the initial size for the collection of rows. It is currently set to 20. If you generate larger sheets you may benefit by setting this to a higher number and recompiling a custom edition of HSSFSheet.

_book

protected final InternalWorkbook _book

_workbook

protected final HSSFWorkbook _workbook

Constructor Detail

HSSFSheet

protected HSSFSheet(HSSFWorkbook workbook)

Creates new HSSFSheet - called by HSSFWorkbook to create a sheet from scratch. You should not be calling this from application code (its protected anyhow).

Parameters:: workbook - - The HSSF Workbook object associated with the sheet.
See Also:: HSSFWorkbook.createSheet()

HSSFSheet

protected HSSFSheet(HSSFWorkbook workbook,
                    InternalSheet sheet)

Creates an HSSFSheet representing the given Sheet object. Should only be called by HSSFWorkbook when reading in an exisiting file.

Parameters:: workbook - - The HSSF Workbook object associated with the sheet.; sheet - - lowlevel Sheet object this sheet will represent
See Also:: HSSFWorkbook.createSheet()

Method Detail

preSerialize

protected void preSerialize()

check whether the data of sheet can be serialized

getWorkbook

public HSSFWorkbook getWorkbook()

Return the parent workbook

Specified by:: getWorkbook in interface Sheet

Returns:: the parent workbook

createRow

public HSSFRow createRow(int rownum)

Create a new row within the sheet and return the high level representation

Specified by:: createRow in interface Sheet

Parameters:: rownum - row number
Returns:: High level HSSFRow object representing a row in the sheet
See Also:: HSSFRow, removeRow(org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Row)

removeRow

public void removeRow(Row row)

Remove a row from this sheet. All cells contained in the row are removed as well

Specified by:: removeRow in interface Sheet

Parameters:: row - representing a row to remove.

getRow

public HSSFRow getRow(int rowIndex)

Returns the logical row (not physical) 0-based. If you ask for a row that is not defined you get a null. This is to say row 4 represents the fifth row on a sheet.

Specified by:: getRow in interface Sheet

Parameters:: rowIndex - row to get
Returns:: HSSFRow representing the row number or null if its not defined on the sheet

getPhysicalNumberOfRows

Gets the first row on the sheet

Specified by:: getFirstRowNum in interface Sheet

Returns:: the number of the first logical row on the sheet, zero based

getLastRowNum

public int getLastRowNum()

Gets the number last row on the sheet. Owing to idiosyncrasies in the excel file format, if the result of calling this method is zero, you can't tell if that means there are zero rows on the sheet, or one at position zero. For that case, additionally call getPhysicalNumberOfRows() to tell if there is a row at position zero or not.

Specified by:: getLastRowNum in interface Sheet

Returns:: the number of the last row contained in this sheet, zero based.

setColumnHidden

public void setColumnHidden(short columnIndex,
                            boolean hidden)

Deprecated. (Sep 2008) use setColumnHidden(int, boolean)

public boolean isColumnHidden(short columnIndex)

Deprecated. (Sep 2008) use isColumnHidden(int)

setColumnWidth

public void setColumnWidth(short columnIndex,
                           short width)

setDefaultColumnWidth

public void setDefaultColumnWidth(short width)

setColumnHidden

public void setColumnHidden(int columnIndex,
                            boolean hidden)

Get the visibility state for a given column.

Specified by:: setColumnHidden in interface Sheet

Parameters:: columnIndex - - the column to get (0-based); hidden - - the visiblity state of the column

isColumnHidden

public boolean isColumnHidden(int columnIndex)

Get the hidden state for a given column.

Specified by:: isColumnHidden in interface Sheet

Parameters:: columnIndex - - the column to set (0-based)
Returns:: hidden - false if the column is visible

setColumnWidth

public void setColumnWidth(int columnIndex,
                           int width)

Set the width (in units of 1/256th of a character width)

The maximum column width for an individual cell is 255 characters. This value represents the number of characters that can be displayed in a cell that is formatted with the standard font (first font in the workbook).

Character width is defined as the maximum digit width of the numbers 0, 1, 2, ... 9 as rendered using the default font (first font in the workbook).
Unless you are using a very special font, the default character is '0' (zero), this is true for Arial (default font font in HSSF) and Calibri (default font in XSSF)

Please note, that the width set by this method includes 4 pixels of margin padding (two on each side), plus 1 pixel padding for the gridlines (Section 3.3.1.12 of the OOXML spec). This results is a slightly less value of visible characters than passed to this method (approx. 1/2 of a character).

To compute the actual number of visible characters, Excel uses the following formula (Section 3.3.1.12 of the OOXML spec):


 width = Truncate([{Number of Visible Characters} *
 {Maximum Digit Width} + {5 pixel padding}]/{Maximum Digit Width}*256)/256

Using the Calibri font as an example, the maximum digit width of 11 point font size is 7 pixels (at 96 dpi). If you set a column width to be eight characters wide, e.g. setColumnWidth(columnIndex, 8*256), then the actual value of visible characters (the value shown in Excel) is derived from the following equation: Truncate([numChars*7+5]/7*256)/256 = 8;

which gives 7.29.

Specified by:: setColumnWidth in interface Sheet

Parameters:: columnIndex - - the column to set (0-based); width - - the width in units of 1/256th of a character width
Throws:: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if width > 255*256 (the maximum column width in Excel is 255 characters)
