Hi there.

Is there any way the library is able to read xlsx files?

Thanks!

Have to research, in theory there is support for it in the underlying library (Apache POI) ...

Hi Florian.

Thanks for the info. I have written a couple of classes that reads and writes .xlsx files, however I am not that familiar with combining ant (creating a Processing library) with Apache POI. Is it possible to give a little info on how to set up Apache in Eclipse to export with Ant?

Thanks a lot for your help

Kind Regards,

Conor.

I do not use a full IDE for the library development ... and never really used Eclipse. Can't help there.

Did you extend on my code or did you write something completely separate? ... if it's based on my library i'm happy to take pull requests and integrate your update if possible.

... and all the ant magic happens in the build.xml file. That is really all you need to look into for compilation.
