Description Toshiaki Kamoshida 2003-03-28 04:13:41 UTC 
Because of same reason of Bug 18404,I hope to add this attribute.
I hope,if once user setted an attribute about encoding to HSSFWorkbook 
instace,he need not to care about this at each HSSFCell object.

1.Add "default encoding" attribute to HSSFWorkbook and add setter/getter method.
2.When a HSSFCell instance is created in the HSSFWorkbook instance,constractor 
of HSSFCell set automatically a copy of this attribute to itself.

And if you can,set default encoding automatically based upon the Locale of JVM
(e.g by using java.util.ResouceBundle).
Comment 1 Toshiaki Kamoshida 2003-03-28 04:35:39 UTC 
Now,constant value about it already exist in HSSFWorkbook.
But it is worked only setting each sheet's name.

All unicode strings (i think i caught them all) now write out correctly, this
includes the sheet name as you descibe, plus headers & footers and a host of
others that i cant remember.
