Marc Shirley created TEIID-4995: ----------------------------------- Summary: Investigate use of org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.DataFormatter in Excel translator Key: TEIID-4995 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-4995 Project: Teiid Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Misc. Connectors Affects Versions: 9.2.4, 8.12.11.6_3, 8.7.12.6_2 Environment: Excel translator Integer values in string columns Reporter: Marc Shirley Assignee: Steven Hawkins For integer values in a string column, values are displayed as a decimal value (for example, a value "5" is displayed as "5.0"). It looks like org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.DataFormatter [1] by default attempts to format values in the same manner as Excel would display it [2], and would result in the integer value "5" being displayed as "5". In the case of string columns, this would avoid the user needing to modify source data to compensate as indicated as workarounds in TEIID-3947. [1] https://poi.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/poi/ss/usermodel/DataFormatter.... [2] The default number format will mimic the Excel General format: "#" for whole numbers and "#.##########" for decimal numbers. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.2.3#72005)
