First, you are correct about the call to new_cellRangeAddress(0,10,0,5); should use : instead of , to separate parameters.
Second, to enable this, you only need to modify hssf_h.
Third, what is the error message, I am unsure what your problem is. Is setAutoFilter not found in org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Sheet?
Do you have range declared as a Java Object?
dcl-s range Like(CellRangeAddress);
What does you code look like?

Subject: Update Excel with RPG
POI does it starting with version 3.7, here is a Java example:
Workbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(); //or new XSSFWorkbook();
Sheet sheet = wb.createSheet();
sheet.setAutoFilter(new CellRangeAddress(0,100,0,10));
Now, Scott's HSSF prototypes do not include the setAutoFilter method,
but that can be added
// ----------------------------------------------------------------
// ssSheet_setAutoFilter()
//
// sets an auto filter for a range of cells
// ref - a range to set the filter on
// ----------------------------------------------------------------
dcl-pr ssSheet_setAutoFilter
ExtProc(*JAVA
: SHEET_CLASS
: 'setAutoFilter');
ref Like(CellRangeAddress) const;
end-pr;
Call in RPG using HSSF this way to set auto filter on the first ten rows
and first five columns:
wb = new_XSSFWorkbook();
sheet = ss_newSheet(wb: 'Sheet1');
range = new_cellRangeAddress(0,10,0,5);
ssSheet_setAutoFilter(sheet: range);

Back in December Mark Murphy injected the above as a modification to
Scott's HSSF_h.
I'm wondering if Mark would elaborate on what he did.
I tried to add this addition to HSSF_h (using POI-3.11) and I'm not sure
what I'm missing
as far as modifications go because while compiling a program it says the
setAutoFilter
is not defined.
Also, I'm concerned that what's shown ...Address(0,10,0,5) probably
should be (0:10:0:5)
at least in the rpg code. Should there be entries in HSSF_h as well as
HSSF4?
D SSSheet_setAutoFilter...
D PR EXTPROC(*JAVA: SHEET_CLASS
D :'setAutoFilter')
D ref like(CellRangeAddress) const
Thanks!
