Re[8]: ltChunk using in POI
I guess, i found something by reading sources of Apache POI library!
QName ALTCHUNK$58 = new QName ( "http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" , "altChunk" ) ;
QName ID$2 = new QName ( "http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships" , "id" ) ;
CTDocument1 ctDoc = doc. getDocument ( ) ;
CTBodyImpl b = ( CTBodyImpl ) ctDoc. getBody ( ) ;
XmlComplexContentImpl ac = ( XmlComplexContentImpl ) b. get_store ( ) . add_element_user ( ALTCHUNK$58 ) ;
org. apache . xmlbeans . SimpleValue target = ac. get_store ( ) . add_attribute_user ( ID$2 ) ;
target. setStringValue ( id ) ;
This code is creating correct altChank element in the body of docx document. Now I'm thinking, how to put another docx inside this one with correct content type an relation object.
How I understand, this way is usful for many different low level modifications of OOXML.

Re[10]: ltChunk using in POI
Posted by Алексей Ушаровский <us...@mail.ru.INVALID>.
I think it's good aim, to develop new class for AltChunk. But I'm only at the beginnig on this way))
Do you know is there a place where MS Word or Excel saves logs with detailed errors which happened when it try to open corrupted documents?

Thanks for looking into this. If you can figure out how to wrap this into
an easy-to-use class, certainly submit a patch on bugzilla to get this
added to the baseline. I'd be happy to help you get this integrated.
