Java2Excel is a simple Java library to allow the
creation of Excel files based on Java Collections.
Each element of the collection goes in a row and
the columns are based on the properties you define
through an XML config file.

The "Too many different cell formats" error message in Excel was fixed. An id was added for properties. If not specified, it will continue to be the expression, as before. The setIncludeExtraLevel method was added to the BodyDtd interface. Maven 2.0 is now used. Maven 1.0 support should be considered deprecated. It will be maintained only for code dependencies, but the site will be generated using Maven 2.0 from now on.
The ognl evaluation has been moved from ExcelWriter to the implementations of PropertyDtd. This allows more flexibility to user implementations of PropertyDtd. There are two supplied implementations: PropertyDtdImpl implements a default ognl evaluation of the expression; and PropertyDtdStaticImpl is an implementation that returns a user defined object as a result of the evaluation (it does not actually uses ognl).
This release adds the ability to specify a name to the Excel sheet created with the method addReport in class ar.com.epere4.java2excel.excelWriter.ExcelWriter.
This was a major upgrade and many things were
changed. This version is not backwards compatible.
It is now possible to make Excel files out of Java
Collections without even suppling an XML
configuration file by getting properties through
reflection. You can combine both methods and use
the XML file to configure only those Excel columns
that reflection can't get automatially and let the
library guess the rest of them. There was a major
refactoring done in the DTD.
This is the first release. It does not have much
documentation or functionality. It allows you to
generate an Excel file using a fairly inflexible
XML file and a java.util.Collection.
