apache POI - xssf und ss missing from package

843785Nov 22 2008 — edited Nov 23 2008
Hi Everybody,

I have downloaded the Apache POI 3.2 from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/poi/release/ (mid5 checksum says download is complete) and then placed the jars in my classpath variable (under win XP). Then I have tried to run a demo program provided on the apache poi website. The demo program starts as follows:

package org.apache.poi.ss.examples;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook;
.......
But Anytime i compile the program I get the message that the "package org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*; does not exist". And also same message for the package "import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*;". And when I have a look into the POI jar files (using winzip) I can see that there are no folder named xssf. In the folder ss there is no subfolder usermodel!!! Does it mean that they are missing from the package? Has anybody already met this problem? Or am I just a silly very beginner :)?

Would be happy if somebody helps me.

Bye
