Are there other free packages besides org.apache.poi for working with MS Excel files?

Question

Java

Hello.
Today it was necessary to solve the problem of loading information from an excel file into Java.
Used package org.apache.poi
working example

try {
            FileInputStream file = new FileInputStream(new File("example.xlsx"));

            //Create Workbook instance holding reference to .xlsx file
            XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(file);

            //Get first/desired sheet from the workbook
            XSSFSheet sheet = workbook.getSheetAt(0);

            //Iterate through each rows one by one
            Iterator<Row> rowIterator = sheet.iterator();
            while (rowIterator.hasNext())
            {
                Row row = rowIterator.next();
                //For each row, iterate through all the columns
                Iterator<Cell> cellIterator = row.cellIterator();

                while (cellIterator.hasNext())
                {
                    Cell cell = cellIterator.next();
                    //Check the cell type and format accordingly
                    switch (cell.getCellType())
                    {
                        case Cell.CELL_TYPE_NUMERIC:
                            System.out.print(cell.getNumericCellValue() + "\t");
                            
                            break;
                        case Cell.CELL_TYPE_STRING:
                            System.out.print(cell.getStringCellValue() + "\t");                        
                            break;
                    }
                }
                System.out.println("");
            }
            file.close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Are there other free packages for working with MS Excel files for Java besides org.apache.poi?

Answer 1

JXLS and some commercial (forgot the name), non-portable, because. works through OLE Automation.
What's wrong with POI? I use it all the time, because. A lot of things have to be imported/exported. Satisfied.
