java.lang.NoSuchMethodError：org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Font.setBold（Z）V

Question

I am using

apache poi 3.15.jar

poi-ooxml-schemas-3.15.jar

trying to create xlsx file from java code

XSSFWorkbook

I have used

        Font font = workbook.createFont();
        font.setColor(IndexedColors.WHITE.getIndex());
        font.setFontName("Arial");
        font.setBold(true);// this line throws error

Or

        XSSFCellStyle style = workbook.createCellStyle();
        XSSFFont myfont = workbook.createFont();

Both throws error Error log:

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Font.setBold(Z)V

I have referred

Java - org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Font.setBold(Z)V while trying to make a Excel Sheet, gives NoSuchMethodError -> Dint help.

Answer 1

I'm not sure, but could you try use variable of different type:

Workbook wb = new XSSFWorkbook("myWorkbook.xlsx");

XSSFFont defaultFont= wb.createFont();
defaultFont.setFontName("Arial");
defaultFont.setColor(IndexedColors.WHITE.getIndex());
defaultFont.setBold(true);
