B4J Library jExcel library

A more powerful library is now available: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...microsoft-excel-xls-and-xlsx-workbooks.57392/

This library allows you to read and write XLS files. It is similar to B4A Excel library: http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/read-write-excel-files-on-android.25632/#content

You should follow the steps in the above link to download and copy the native library.

There are two new methods in this library:

ReadableWorkbook.InitializeAsync - Asynchronously opens the file. The Ready event is raised when the workbook is ready.

Sheet.GetAllAsync - Asynchronously gets all the cells from the sheet. The ValuesAvailable event is raised when the operation completee.

The attached example allows you to open a workbook file and browse its content.

It depends on jxl.jar: www.b4x.com/b4j/files/jxl.jar

Hi there. Someone can help me reading a .xml file, and writing all the data into a list, or a table.
In fact i wish to parse the xml file and write an .txt file with the data from the xml file.
Can you give a try please?

I have a problem with this library: i create a new excel file with my data, now i close the workbook and make a delay for 1500 msec,
then i want to open it fx.showexternalDocument(...). It opens, but this file is writeprotected by user ''.
How can i 'free' this excel file?

The jFileWatcher library allows you to get and set the read-only status of files.

Thanks for your help! I am sorry, i translated it not exactly - the file is in use by user '' - i checked it with jFilewatcher and the file itself is not write protected - i think the creations process does not free the file handles. If i open it in excel, i can it open write protected and save under another name.

Now i tried the newer excel library - PoiExcel - and in this example the opening of the file is already in the demo included - so here it works. Maybe i have to transfer my code to the new library...
