I'm having serious trouble adding a new, simple XWPFTable to an XWPFHeader (or Footer). Unfortunately there seems to be only one guy having the same problem (https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57366#c0).
Does anyone has an approach to achieve this??
XWPFDocument docx = (XWPFDocument) dockingObject;
CTSectPr sectPr = docx.getDocument().getBody().addNewSectPr();
XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy policy = new WPFHeaderFooterPolicy(docx, sectPr);
XWPFHeader header = policy.createHeader(XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy.DEFAULT);
// somthing like: header.createTable();
Any help will be more than appreciated!
Kind regard...

This is possible using public XWPFTable insertNewTbl(org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlCursor cursor).
Approach:
Create a new paragraph in the header. Then get a org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlCursor
from the org.openxmlformats.schemas.wordprocessingml.x2006.main.CTP
of that paragraph. Then insert the table positioned by that cursor.
Example:
import java.io.*;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.model.XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.wordprocessingml.x2006.main.CTSectPr;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.wordprocessingml.x2006.main.CTTblWidth;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.wordprocessingml.x2006.main.STTblWidth;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlCursor;
import java.math.BigInteger;
public class CreateWordHeaderFooterTable {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
XWPFDocument doc= new XWPFDocument();
// the body content
XWPFParagraph paragraph = doc.createParagraph();
XWPFRun run=paragraph.createRun();
run.setText("The Body:");
paragraph = doc.createParagraph();
run=paragraph.createRun();
run.setText("Lorem ipsum....");
// create header-footer
CTSectPr sectPr = doc.getDocument().getBody().addNewSectPr();
XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy headerFooterPolicy = new XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy(doc, sectPr);
// create header start
XWPFHeader header = headerFooterPolicy.createHeader(XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy.DEFAULT);
paragraph = header.getParagraphArray(0);
if (paragraph == null) paragraph = header.createParagraph();
paragraph.setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.LEFT);
run = paragraph.createRun();
run.setText("The Header:");
// create table in header
paragraph = header.createParagraph();
XmlCursor cursor = paragraph.getCTP().newCursor();
XWPFTable table = header.insertNewTbl(cursor);
XWPFTableRow row = table.getRow(0); if (row == null) row = table.createRow();
int twipsPerInch = 1440;
table.getCTTbl().addNewTblGrid().addNewGridCol().setW(BigInteger.valueOf(6 * twipsPerInch));
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
XWPFTableCell cell = row.getCell(i); if (cell == null) cell = row.createCell();
CTTblWidth tblWidth = cell.getCTTc().addNewTcPr().addNewTcW();
tblWidth.setW(BigInteger.valueOf(2 * twipsPerInch));
tblWidth.setType(STTblWidth.DXA);
paragraph = cell.getParagraphs().get(0);
run = paragraph.createRun();
run.setText("Header Table Cell " + i);
}
// create footer start
XWPFFooter footer = headerFooterPolicy.createFooter(XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy.DEFAULT);
paragraph = footer.getParagraphArray(0);
if (paragraph == null) paragraph = footer.createParagraph();
paragraph.setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER);
run = paragraph.createRun();
run.setText("The Footer:");
doc.write(new FileOutputStream("CreateWordHeaderFooterTable.docx"));
}
