如何在Java中使用POI-XSSF在Excel文件中插入表情符号

Question

I am using below code, for inserting emojis into excel using apache POI-HSSF, Please let me know how can I insert emojis into .xlsx file using POI-XSSF in Java,

Workbook workBook =new HSSFWorkbook();
Sheet createSheet = workBook.createSheet("Emoji");
String str ="🤓😜"+"somevalue";

Row createRow = createSheet.createRow(0);
createRow.createCell(0).setCellValue(str);
//creating a file and writing the Workbook data 
try {
    FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream("/tmp/MyFirstExcel.xls");
    workBook.write(fileOutputStream);
    fileOutputStream.close();
} catch (IOException iException) {
    System.out.println("IO exception occured while creating the file" + iException.getMessage());
}

Any help would be highly appreciated.

You need to move on from xmlbeans-2.6.0 to higher version. I did replace it with 3.1.0 plus your UTF-8 needs to be enforced. This step is not necessary but rather ensuring

String cleanedText = StringEscapeUtils.unescapeJava(yourstringhere);
                    byte[] bytes = cleanedText.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
                    String text = new String(bytes, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
                    Charset charset = Charset.forName("UTF-8");
                    CharsetDecoder decoder = charset.newDecoder();
                    decoder.onMalformedInput(CodingErrorAction.IGNORE);
                    decoder.onUnmappableCharacter(CodingErrorAction.IGNORE);
                    CharsetEncoder encoder = charset.newEncoder();
                    encoder.onMalformedInput(CodingErrorAction.IGNORE);
                    encoder.onUnmappableCharacter(CodingErrorAction.IGNORE);
                    try {
                        // The new ByteBuffer is ready to be read.
                        ByteBuffer bbuf = encoder.encode(CharBuffer.wrap(text));
                        // The new ByteBuffer is ready to be read.
                        CharBuffer cbuf = decoder.decode(bbuf);
                        String str = cbuf.toString();
                        RichTextString rx = createHelper.createRichTextString(str);
                            row.createCell((short) 1).setCellValue(rx);
                    } catch (CharacterCodingException e) {
                        logger.error("PUT SOME CODE HERE FOR DEBUGGING");
                        row.createCell((short) 1).setCellValue(new XSSFRichTextString(""));
                    }

Do not forget this it does not get lost in transformation for HttpServletResponse response :

        response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
        response.setContentType("application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet;charset=UTF-8");
        response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + filename + ";");

By the way, here is the change log for xmlbeans 2.6.0 vs 3.1.0

1. XMLBEANS-517: use safe XML parsers

   XMLBEANS-516: remove unnecessary javax and org.w3c classes

   XMLBEANS-515: remove piccolo support

   XMLBEANS-514: make java 6 the lowest supported runtime

   XMLBEANS-489: fix for Cursor getAllNamespaces not returning default namespace

   Fix for XMLBEANS-499: xmlbeans2.6.0.jar contains duplicate class files (causes issues on Android)

   XMLBEANS-447: Drop the ConcurrentReaderHashMap source code

   Fix for XMLBEANS-404: entitizeContent CDATA loop iterating too many times (causes assertion error or ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in replace)

   Fix for XMLBEANS-332: XMLBeans changes surrogate pair bytes to question marks

Answer 2

This is working since xmlbeans 3.0.0

Someone mentioned version 2.6.2, which is not indexed anymore (as of now, June 2019), so jump directly to 3.xx
