Description Peter M. Murray 2004-03-24 21:40:29 UTC 
When using the HSSF* classes, there doesn't appear to be an easy way to get 
FormatRecords to support unicode.  Analogous to Bug #22957, I propose that the 
FormatRecord automatically detect if unicode is needed.  Then, you don't need 
to expose the explicit unicode support.

I've attached a patch (including an extension to StringUtil to detect unicode 
required strings).
