We also use that. We also saved the old version of the HSSF prototypes,
and it used to be jshort, which is what some of our programs were compiled
with. I don't think I can tell which ones they were, so I'll either have
to guess by compile date, or just recompile all the 100+ programs.

Fortunately, for us anyway, the HSSF prototypes from Scott K already use
the setColumnWidth(jint, jint) method rather than the heretofore deprecated
setColumnWidth(jshort, jshort).

This upgrade has been a hoot. Turns out that POI dropped support for
setColumnWidth(jshort,jshort) at version 3.14. The preferred and only
method for this now is setColumnWidth(jint,jint). You've been warned.

We're currently running the Jakarta POI HSSF Excel generation java methods,
version 3.10.1. I attempted to replace this with the current version,
which is 3.14. Identical programs on different IBM i servers reacted
differently to this upgrade. Some worked as on the previous version, but
our production server blew up on an error about Windows Server X11 could
not be located. I found that some other install had created an environment
variable "DISPLAY" with an attribute of "localhost:10" on the production
server. Removing this environment variable let the new version (3.14) work
correctly. This DISPLAY variable has something to do with defining a
display device to Java, which I presume does not exist for an IBM i job
running in batch.

I'm posting this for someone else that may have experienced a similar
issue, so that it might help you.
