Page Breaks
I read some discussion in the archives about adding page breaks in Excel
sheets to POI's functionality (must have been around August last year).
A developer was writing that is is just implementing page breaks and
wanted some input of how users would like the methods to look like.
However, I can not find any further mentioning of page breaks (what I
was looking for is something like: it's working now, just use
sheet.setPageBreak(...)).
Are simple page breaks implemented yet? I had a look at the javadocs,
but there I can not find any method which would look to me like it would
solve my issue. But then again, maybe I am looking at the wrong place
...
What I want to do is create a excel sheet, which contains information
about shipments, with several rows per shipment, and on a printout I
would like every shipment to start on a new page. Is this currently
possible?
Thanks,
Best Regards,
Christoph Jäger

In case you're not looking at the news blog or dev list, the latest CVS
build has page break support.

yeah, they're mainly new methods. No binary incompatible changes on the
usermodel side.

what happened was the following:
1) I wrote page break functionality while release 2 was in
pre-release/release stage and didn't want to commit new code.
2) I created a patch incorrectly and subsequently lost most of the changes.
I have these in binary form for another project and will decompile the
source since it's been working for a while. I will try to commit this
to the release 2 branch on Monday (February 9) the latest.
