Question

Hi Iam trying to convert xlsx to pdf using apache.poi at first time it's work perfectly until i add some code (convert docx to pdf) which need to use 3.17 version. After that when i try to convert xlsx i got this error

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.poi.util.POILogger.log(ILjava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Throwable;)V

I don't know what happen. Anyway here is my some code to get the file

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    OPCPackage pkg = OPCPackage.open(file);
    XSSFWorkbook xls = new XSSFWorkbook(pkg);
    XSSFSheet worksheet = xls.getSheetAt(0);

i got error when OPCPackage open file(InputStream). Please any one can help me?

Lib : poi 3.17 and all dependencies, itextpdf 5.5.13

Answer 1

Check actual versions of your dependencies, please (e.g. with mvn dependency:tree).

I see nothing wrong with poi 3.17 and itextpdf 5.5.13. Unit test with pom below get passed.

package stackoverflow.q59892610;

public class PoiTest
{
    @Rule
    public TemporaryFolder folder= new TemporaryFolder(new File("target"));
    @Test
    public void xlsTest() throws Exception
    {
        File file = new File(folder.getRoot(), UUID.randomUUID() + ".xlxs");
        String cellValue = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
        try (XSSFWorkbook xls = new XSSFWorkbook(XLSX)) {
            xls.createSheet("new sheet").createRow(0).createCell(0).setCellValue(cellValue);
            try(OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file)) {xls.write(out);}
        }
        ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        XSSFWorkbook xls = new XSSFWorkbook(file);
        XSSFSheet worksheet = xls.getSheetAt(0);
        assertEquals("cell value mismatch", cellValue, worksheet.getRow(0).getCell(0).getStringCellValue());
    }
}
