Extensibility for functions in formulas on HSSF

[Michel Bertrand <mi...@datasul.com.br>]

Hi !
I would like to add some of my business formulas in HSSF Formula
Support, like financial mathematics. 
How can I do that ? I take a look on the code which loads all functions
for HSSF and I would like to make
it flexible to support user custom formulas. But I would like to know if
you contributors have any ideia on
how to do it, do you have ? And so, I would like to donate that code and
my formulas to the project 
upon the contributors agree it could be valuable !

Thanks in advance !
Michel Bertrand.

Hi,
I tried doing the same but as far as I know, there isnt any support 
for user custom formulas. but if excel supports your 
business formulas (plugin or sumthing), then you 
can extend HSSF and write those functions using HSSF. 
Otherwise you can only write 
those functions for which excel provides support. 
Let me know if you need more help on this.
