Support for Birt 4.3.1 - Githubissues

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Birt 4.3.1
2. Export reports that were working in 4.2

What is the expected output?
Working Excel spreadsheet.

What do you see instead?
An Excel spreadsheet with a list of exceptions and their stack trace:
...
java.lang.ClassCastException: 
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.css.engine.value.StringValue cannot be cast to 
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.css.engine.value.FloatValue
at 
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.xls.POIWriterXLS.declareStyle(POIWriterXL
S.java:263)
...

For some reason StyleEntry.getProperty( StyleConstant.TEXT_INDENT ) returns a 
StringValue with contents "none", not a FloatValue.

What version of the product are you using?
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.nativexls_1.0.0.201110122114.jar

On what operating system?
Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
Is there any plan to upgrade the native excel emitter to Birt 4.3.1? This would 
be great as neither of the new Birt Excel emitters offers cell merging for 
headers.
