[Bug 69878] COUNTIF pattern matching not escaping +, \

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69878

--- Comment #1 from PJ Fanning <fa...@yahoo.com> ---
There is noone actively maintaining the POI formula evaluations. If you would
like to submit a PR, feel free to do so.

In practice, not everyone needs formula evaluation. xls(x) files have the
evaluated values cached in them - so POI read those anyway. When writing, you
can call setForceFormulaRecalculation(true) on the POI workbook and this sets a
flag in the xls(x) file that tells Excel to eval the formulas when it opens the
file.

POI will likely never have full formula eval support.
