* Add methods to manage first slide number(firstSlideNum) Adds methods to manage the custom starting slide number in XSLF (PowerPoint) presentations. This property is stored as the 'firstSlideNum' attribute in ppt/presentation.xml. The following methods are added to XMLSlideShow: - getFirstSlideNumber(): Retrieves the current starting slide number (default is 1). - setFirstSlideNumber(int num): Sets the custom starting slide number. - unsetFirstSlideNumber(): Removes the 'firstSlideNum' attribute, reverting to the default (1). Constraints: The 'set' method enforces the bounds [0, 9999] as defined by Microsoft's implementation specifications (MS-OI29500, Part 1, Section 19.2.1.26) to ensure the creation of valid PowerPoint files. Also includes TestXSLFSlideShow updates to cover the new functionality, persistence, and validation checks. * Review: Apply review feedback to firstSlideNumber feature - Add @since 6.0.0 Javadoc tag to getFirstSlideNumber(), setFirstSlideNumber(), and unsetFirstSlideNumber() methods in XMLSlideShow. - Refactor TestXSLFSlideShow to use explicit static JUnit imports (e.g., assertEquals, assertThrows) instead of wildcard imports, adhering to project coding style guidelines. * whitespace --------- Co-authored-by: PJ Fanning <pjfanning@users.noreply.github.com>
Apache POI™
A Java library for reading and writing Microsoft Office binary and OOXML file formats.
The Apache POI Project's mission is to create and maintain Java APIs for manipulating various file formats based upon the Office Open XML standards (OOXML) and Microsoft's OLE 2 Compound Document format (OLE2). In short, you can read and write MS Excel files using Java. In addition, you can read and write MS Word and MS PowerPoint files using Java. Apache POI is your Java Excel solution (for Excel 97-2008). We have a complete API for porting other OOXML and OLE2 formats and welcome others to participate.
OLE2 files include most Microsoft Office files such as XLS, DOC, and PPT as well as MFC serialization API based file formats. The project provides APIs for the OLE2 Filesystem (POIFS) and OLE2 Document Properties (HPSF).
Office OpenXML Format is the new standards based XML file format found in Microsoft Office 2007 and 2008. This includes XLSX, DOCX and PPTX. The project provides a low level API to support the Open Packaging Conventions using openxml4j.
For each MS Office application there exists a component module that attempts to provide a common high level Java api to both OLE2 and OOXML document formats. This is most developed for Excel workbooks (SS=HSSF+XSSF). Work is progressing for Word documents (WP=HWPF+XWPF) and PowerPoint presentations (SL=HSLF+XSLF).
The project has some support for Outlook (HSMF). Microsoft opened the specifications to this format in October 2007. We would welcome contributions.
There are also projects for Visio (HDGF and XDGF), TNEF (HMEF), and Publisher (HPBF).
This library includes the following components, roughly in descending order of maturity:
- Excel spreadsheets (Common SS = HSSF, XSSF, and SXSSF)
- PowerPoint slideshows (Common SL = HSLF and XSLF)
- Word processing documents (Common WP = HWPF and XWPF)
- Outlook email (HSMF and HMEF)
- Visio diagrams (HDGF and XDGF)
- Publisher (HPBF)
And lower-level, supporting components:
- OLE2 Filesystem (POIFS)
- OLE2 Document Properties (HPSF)
- TNEF (HMEF) for Outlook winmail.dat files
- OpenXML4J (OOXML)
| Components named H??F are for reading or writing OLE2 binary formats. | Components named X??F are for reading or writing OpenOffice XML (OOXML) formats.
