It seems I'm in a bit of a pickle, I read various topics about read xls files with hssf but I can't seem to find good xssf tutorials and it's really hard since they have different statements. My code is supposed to read the row 2, column 2 but I get a "getContents() is undefined for the type XSSFComment" error
My code goes something like:
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFCell;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFRow;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFSheet;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFWorkbook;
public class parsing{
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
InputStream ExcelFileToRead = new FileInputStream("C:/test.xlsx");
XSSFWorkbook wb = new XSSFWorkbook(ExcelFileToRead);
XSSFSheet sh = wb.getSheetAt(0);
System.out.println(sh.getCellComment(1,1).getContents());
}
}
Error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem:
The method getContents() is undefined for the type XSSFComment
