Bug 42974

Summary: HSSFSheet.protectSheet() method missing in 3.0.1 FINAL JAR
Product: POI Reporter: Vinny Carpenter <vscarpenter>
Component: HSSFAssignee: POI Developers List <dev>
Status: RESOLVED INVALID

Description Vinny Carpenter 2007-07-25 13:53:50 UTC
The JavaDoc for HSSFSheet has marked the setProtect() method as deprecated. It
recommends that I use protectSheet(String, boolean, boolean) but that method
doesn't appear to have made it in the 3.0.1 FINAL POI jar file.  I've downloaded
the file poi-bin-3.0.1-FINAL-20070705.tar.gz several times from different
mirrors to make sure but I don't see the protectSheet() method in the classes or
the src file itself.

Am I missing something?  Is the JavaDoc generated from another set of code?  thanks

The javadocs on the site are generated from TRUNK. The javadocs for any given
version of POI are included in the binary package.

If you take a look at the change list for poi,
   http://poi.apache.org/changes.html
then you'll see that the new protection code is only in TRUNK for now.
