The latest release seems to not want you to give a class element both a Php type and a doc-block type. I used the "fix" operand to delete the redundant doc-block declarations, with no other changes. So there should be no change to executable code.
Fix#460. Another in the "better late than never" series, closed as stale in June 2018. Ods Writer and Ods Reader handle booleans differently; what is worse, neither of them do it correctly. They will now match the behavior of LibreOffice. Reporter said that part of the xml would vary depending on locale; I believe that part is never actually used, but I do emulate that behavior.
Fix#64 (really!), closed as stale in December 2017, another in our "better late than never" series. Excel's INDEX function doesn't really behave quite as described. If a single row is used as an argument, either in literal form `{item1, item2, item3}` or expressed as a range `A1:A6`, INDEX is happy to evaluate the array as if each entry were a row rather than a single item. PhpSpreadsheet is changed to do likewise.
INDEX also returned `#REF!` when it would normally return an array (which would often be reduced to its leftmost topmost entry later). This code is deleted, invalidating one existing test, and INDEX will now operate like other functions which can return arrays.
Fix#2581 (not obvious - see next paragraph for explanation). This continues the work of PR #2902 (and also PR #3467) to have errors propagated through function calculations rather than treating them as strings. All text functions, and the concatenation operator, are addressed in this PR.
In the original issue, the spreadsheet being loaded uses the result of an unimplemented function as an argument to another function. When `getCalculatedValue` is used on the cell in question, the result is returned as `#VALUE!`. If the cell had just contained a function call to the unimplemented function, getCalculatedValue would have recognized the situation and returned oldCalculatedValue as the result. Not perfect, but good enough most of the time. User would like oldCalculatedValue returned here as well, which seems like a reasonable request.
PhpSpreadsheet always returns `#Not Yet Implemented` as the result for a function which it knows about but which is not yet implemented. That is the key to the `Cell` class being able to substitute oldCalculatedValue in the first place. However, in order to do that for the issue in question, that result has to be propagated to any functions for which the result is an argument. I don't want to add unimplemented to the list of known error codes, but I am willing to add a parameter to `ErrorValue::isError` to indicate whether that value should be considered an error (default is "no").
The first use of that new parameter would be by the text functions. They go through a common Helper routine, so it is pretty easily implemented. And, as it turns out, most of the text functions do not currently propagate errors, e.g. if A1 results in a value error, `=LEFT(A1,2)` will result in `#V` rather than `#VALUE!`. With this PR, they will now be handled correctly.
Fix#1310, which was closed as stale in 2020, but which I will now reopen. Supersedes PR #1311 (@jaiminmoslake7020), from which I will remove the stale label but leave closed. The issue and the PR were too limited - they detected that the use of two equal signs at the start of a string made for an invalid formula, but there are variations, trivial and otherwise, which might also be detected. Using `setValue` with a string which starts with an equal sign will now attempt to parse (not evaluate) the formula; for certain situations in which the parser throws an exception, the string will be treated as a string rather than a formula. An example where it will still be treated as a formula is a 3D range reference, where the problem is not that it can't be parsed, but rather that the formula isn't supported (see unit test Calculation/Engine/RangeTest::test3dRangeEvaluation). Allowing such a formula might cause problems later on, but that is already what happens.
A string beginning with an equal sign but which isn't treated as a formula will automatically set the `quotePrefix` attribute to `true`; all other `setValue` attempts will set it to `false`. This avoids the problem of a lingering value causing problems later on.
It has long been a matter of discontent that setting a style can change the selected cells. A new method is added to `Worksheet`:
```php
applyStylesFromArray(string $coordinate, array $styleArray)
```
This will attempt to guarantee that the active sheet in the current spreadsheet, and the selected cells in the current worksheet, remain undisturbed after the call. The setting of `quotePrefix` above is the first use of the new method.
Dependabot suggested some changes this month which required an unusual effort to implement successfully. With the elimination of Php 8.0 as a supported environment, it became possible to use Phpunit 10 rather than 9. Among other considerations, the configuration file for Phpunit is changed. I preserved the Phpunit 9 version under a different name. Aside from the configuration change, several other changes needed to be made to accommodate the change:
- Fix#3993. A peculiar problem indeed. One of the reporters said it had something to do with mocking, but I couldn't duplicate it. But Phpunit 10 revealed the problem in one test (Reader/Xlsx/AutoFilterTest), and that was sufficient for me to apply the trivial source code change to Worksheet/Worksheet.
- Some extra stringency on data providers required extra work in Calculation/CalculationFunctionListTest.
- There was a misplaced label in Calculation/ParseFormulaTest. Likewise in the data member CellGetRangeBoundaries.
- More stringency required changes to data members Shared/Trend/ExponentialBestFit and Shared/Trend/LinearBestFit.
- Issue3982Test testLoadAllRows seemed to go into a memory-acquiring loop in 10 that was not evident in 9. This particular test uses a lot of memory by design, but was included only to establish a base level for the other tests in that member. I feel it is acceptable to skip it for 10.
Phpstan errors with a new release are not unusual. One of the problems this time around was, however, unusual - it is fixed when Phpstan runs under Php8.3, but not for earlier Php releases. Our tools currently use Php 8.1. It is on my to-do list to get Phpstan and other test tools running under 8.3 before 8.1 goes EOL. There are also some configuration file changes needed for Phpstan.
Php-cs-fixer has been taking an increasingly long time to run. They've added an experimental option to permit it to run its checks in parallel. I've changed its configuration to use that option.
While researching another problem, I noticed that font color was not working as expected for Xls Conditional Formats, at least not when a "non-standard" color is used. In such cases, the color might wind up being rendered as black. The reason is as follows. Xls Writer includes a color palette which is dynamically generated from the (non-Conditional) styles used in the workbook. Any colors used in the workbook are indexes to this dynamic palette. However, Conditional colors use a static palette found in class ColorMap to determine the index, so the determination of index will often not find a match, and, if a match is found, it is not necessarily correct. (Also, the ColorMap method was case-sensitive and needs to be insensitive.)
In order to correct this, the `addColor` method in Xls Writer Workbook needs to be accessible to the Conditional logic which is found in Xls Writer Worksheet. This is accomplished by passing the Workbook in the Worksheet's constructor, and changing the method to public, and changing Conditional Font to use this method rather than ColorMap.
The logic for Conditional Fill colors is similarly changed. Although Xls Conditional Fill has appeared to just not work, I was finally able to figure out the problem. Excel Xls Conditional Fill with fill type Solid requires that the fill color be specified as startColor, and that endColor be omitted. Our conditional samples used endColor, and are now changed to use startColor instead; the same is true for our online documentation, and for some tests. Xlsx continues to work as expected, and now Xls does at least some of the time. If the condition is one that Excel Xls does not recognize (e.g. cell contains), it will, of course, not work. A surprising situation that also doesn't work is the use of ISODD or ISEVEN in formulas. Those are "add-in functions" which are handled differently than other functions, and I'm not sure how to support them. I will document this in issue #3403.
Samples 08_Conditional_Formatting(_2) had produced corrupt Xls versions. This turned out to be because the code was using hash codes to avoid having to write out duplicate conditionals; this is often a good idea, but not in this case. Allowing the duplicates fixes the corruption problem.
Conditional Border colors also ought to figure in this change, but the current code does not support Border colors, and I have not yet been able to figure out how to implement it (BIFF format can be very messy to figure out).
With this change, I could delete ColorMap altogether. However, it is a public class with a static public method, so maybe someone is using it for a purpose I'm not familiar with. I will just deprecate it.
Scrutinizer balked at quotes around key 'Unit Name'; no reason not to use 'UnitName' instead.
Having done that, several ConvertUOM tests seemed a little unconvincing. Replaced them with improved versions.
Fix#3909. SUMPRODUCT is mishandling multi-row ranges. In Calculation/Calculation, `checkMatrixOperands` will often resize its operands. When it does so, it needs to recalculate the dimensions of each. This fixes the reported problem.
Likely cause was PR #3260. That ticket noted the poor coverage of the code being replaced. Tests of the problem in this ticket were absent and are now added. Despite this, I note that `resizeMatricesShrink` is virtually uncovered, and `resizeMatricesExpand` has substantial gaps in its coverage. I have covered some, but not all, of the Expand gaps. I am struggling to come up with examples to fill its remaining gaps and those for Shrink. However, I will merge this fix in about a week even if I don't succeed.
Fix#3875. Even better, fix#2146, which has been open for 2.5 years.
Empty arguments are improperly placed on the stack; in particular, they are added without `onlyIf` and `onlyIfNot` attributes.This results in problems described in 3875.
IF has a somewhat unexpected design. In Excel, `IF(false, valueIfTrue)` evaluates as `false`, but `IF(false, valueIfTrue,)` evaluates as 0. This means that IF empty arguments should be handled in the same manner as MIN/MAX/MINA/MAXA, but you need to be careful to distinguish empty from omitted.
Also note that IF requires 2 operands - `IF(true)` is an error, but `IF(true,)` evaluates to 0.
I check from time to time. There are a number of problems now, mostly due to the elimination of Php 7.4 and replacement of doc-block typing with explicit Php typing.
- Bitwise functions were particularly affected by PR #3718 and PR #3793.
- Chart/Axis and Writer/Xlsx were amusingly affected by PR #3836, which added a scaling option which included an array indexed by the known allowable factors, one of which is 1 trillion, which cannot be represented as an integer on a 32-bit system. Issue3833Test, introduced by the same PR (and not suffering any errors) was expanded to test this value.
- Some minor changes to Reader/Xls and Shared/OLE/PPS to accommodate hex values which are negative in 32-bit but which Php-32 may wind up casting to large floating point numbers; it is not clear to me why these hadn't shown up as problems previously. Possibly this is the result of changes in the most recent Php versions.
- BitAndTest, BitOrTest, BitXorTest and Shared/DateTest were adversely affected by PR #3859 when arguments and/or expected results too large for a 32-bit integer were supplied.
- ImExpTest required a slightly reduced precision for 32-bit. No idea why this hadn't shown up earlier.
Fix#3866. Excel normally treats a missing argument (e.g. `PRODUCT(2,3,)`) as null and ignores it. Not so for MIN/MAX/MINA/MAXA; for those, an empty argument is treated as zero. PhpSpreadsheet is changed to do the same.
Change "mixed" declarations to more accurate types in test members; in particular, change those that would be flagged if we were to run Phpstan at level 9 (we currently run level 8). I may or may not follow up with source code (over 700 level-9 problems remain for src), but, as with strict typing, there is no reason to avoid the effort for test members.
It was necessary to update some doc blocks in src to accommodate this change. However, no executable code is touched.
Fix#3819. Excel can add these prefixes (basically invisible to end-user). Formula translation in PhpSpreadsheet fails when dealing with these unexpected prefixes, and, even if it handled it correctly, the unexpected prefixes confuse the users. I have changed to strip those prefixes when translating to a locale. This is probably not perfect, but is almost certainly good enough. I could easily add the same change when translating from a locale to English, but I don't think there's a good use case for that, so am opting not to do so for now.
The documentation mentions `translateFormulaToLocale` and `translateFormulaToEnglish`. Neither of these exist; both names are preceded by an underscore. I have changed the code to match the documentation rather than vice versa, retaining deprecated versions of the underscored routines which merely invoke the non-underscored routines.
This was suggested by the investigation of issue #3811. No fix is necessary for the issue. However, two possible code solutions (Php setlocale, which comes with certain design flaws, and StringHelper set(Decimal/Thousands)Separator were suggested, and neither is adequately tested. This PR adds such tests.
Unusually, getting StringHelper Decimal Separator, Thousands Separator, and Currency Code can result in a change to those properties. So, the existing design in several tests where those properties are captured in Setup and restored in Teardown do not work quite as designed. Instead, the ability to set those properties to their default value (null) is added, and the tests re-done to restore the default in Teardown.
The two methods yield the same results when parsing input. However, they diverge when examining output fields through `getFormattedValue`. Such output is currently correct (usually) when using setlocale, but not when using StringHelper. The former works through the 'trick' of using `sprintf(%f)`, which generates a locale-aware string. However, using non-locale-aware `sprintf(%F)` followed by `str_replace` will produce the correct result for both setlocale and StringHelper. One place in the code uses a cast to string, which is incorrect for both methods. Following that up with the same str_replace makes it correct for both. These changes permit, but do not require, the user to avoid setlocale altogether.
It remains an open question whether Settings/Calculation::setLocale should set DecimalSeparator, CurrencySeparator, and CurrencyCode. That makes logical sense, but it would be a breaking change, and having to explicitly set those values when using setLocale does not seem especially burdensome. For now, such a change will not be made.
Fix#3782. A signature of the ReflectionMethod constructor will be deprecated, and PhpSpreadsheet runs afoul of that change in one place. Php8.4 is not yet available in any form, and I am reluctant to make this change until we see that the issue is real (and that this PR fixes it), so am leaving this PR in draft status till then.
I note that one Excel function `PI` is implemented not as a class method in PhpSpreadsheet, but rather as a call to the native Php function `pi`. The ReflectionMethod call is subject to a TypeError in the changed code, but that is already the case. We haven't seen a TypeError because (a) it will arise only if the caller supplies an argument to the function (which must be called with zero arguments), and (b) there are no test cases for that function. The code is slightly cleaned up, and test cases are now added. This is not an important enough problem to rush this PR - the existing code (and the changed code), rather than failing with TypeError, will fail with a CalculationException (wrong number of arguments) before it gets to the TypeError; that is the correct behavior.
* Eliminate Some Phpstan Annotations
Some changes are possible due to Php8+ features like null-safe operators and Stringable.
* Possible Uninitialized Variable
Scrutinizer might be technically correct.
* CellAddress Static -> Self
I don't understand the use case for extending it, which would be the reason for using static rather than self.
* Update Worksheet.php
Because they tend to clutter our code a lot and unfortunately, there are
lots of false positives. Instead, it would probably be better to deal
with false positives out of band, via the Scrutinizer web UI.
While we might never be able to have 100% of our code strict, we can at
the very least do it for all of our tests. This ensures that our tests
are using our API with the types as intended by the test author, and not
silently be cast to what our API requires.
And quite a bit more manual changes. The idea is that typing of our
tests can be a bit more loose, so we assume PHPDoc is mostly correct. If
that happens to be wrong, it should be caught by the tests themselves.
* Correct Re-computation of Relative Addresses in Defined Names
Fix#3661. Insertion or deletion of rows or columns can cause changes to the ranges for Defined Names. In fact, only the absolute parts of such ranges should be adjusted, while the relative parts should be left alone. Otherwise, as the original issue documents, the adjustment to the relative portion winds up being double-counted when the Defined Name is referenced in a formula. The major part of this change is to ReferenceHelper and CellReferenceHelper to not adjust relative addresses for Defined Names. An additional small change is needed in the Calculation engine to `recursiveCalculationCell` when a Defined Formula is being calculated.
In a sense, this is a breaking change, but for an obscure use case which (a) was wrong, and (b) is unlikely to be of importance. Some of the tests in ReferenceHelperTest were wrong and are now corrected, with the results being cross-checked against Excel.
When a Defined Name using relative addressing is defined in Excel, the result is treated as relative to the active cell on the sheet in which the name is defined. PhpSpreadsheet treats it as relative to cell A1. I think that is a reasonable treatment, and will not change its behavior to match Excel's - that would definitely be a breaking change of some consequence.
An interesting use of relative address in a defined name is demonstrated at https://excelguru.ca/always-refer-to-the-cell-above/. Note that the steps there involve setting the selected cell to A2 before defining the name. When that spreadsheet is stored, the actual definition of the range is `A1048576`. Likewise, adding a defined name for the cell to the left would be stored as `XFD1`. This seems a little fragile, but Ods, which I believe does not have the same row and column limits as Excel, certainly treats these values the same as Excel. This particular construction is formally unit-tested. Note, however, that although using these Defined Names as a formula on their own works just fine, a construction like `=SUM(A1:CellAbove)`, as suggested in the article, seems to put PhpSpreadsheet calculation engine in a loop. In the likely event that I can't solve that before I merge this change, I will open a new issue to that effect when I do merge it. Note that this can be handled without defined names as `=SUM(A$1:INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW()-1,COLUMN())))`. PhpSpreadsheet will handle this as a cell formula, but not yet as a Named Formula.
The tests show a breakdown evaluating `=ProductTotal` (product of 2 formulas using defined names with relative addresses) on the sheet on which it is defined, but it works from a different sheet. The usual debugging techniques show me why this is happening, but I can't see how to overcome it. As above, if I can't solve it before I merge, I will open a new issue.
For those situations where I intend to open a new issue, tests are added but are marked Incomplete. Because of those, I will leave this PR in draft status for 2 weeks before moving forward with it.
* Fix productTotal Problem
Need to restore current cell after evaluating defined name.
* Check For and Eliminate Octal Literals
Php8.1 introduced a new form of octal literal (0o123); the old form (0123) continues to be supported, but can certainly be misleading. There are exactly 6 uses of the old form in the code base (5 in tests, 1 in infra). 4 of these are clearly unintended (02 or 03), and the leading 0 should just be dropped for those. The other 2 are for file permissions and are easily replaced.
* Minor Changes to LocaleGenerator
Testing the permissions change exposed some problems when the locale files don't exist. This never shows up as an issue when the files do exist, which is pretty much all the time, but correct the theoretical exposures anyhow.
* Populate bg and en_uk Locale Files from Spreadsheet
Also rename locale generator so that it is executed first. This is when it should happen because other tests depend on its results.
* Some Bulgarian Function Omissions
Figured out a reasonable way to compare old Bulgarian function file to new; this identified a handful of now-corrected omissions and errors. Note that JIS function, in old list, is not on spreadsheet, but the Bulgarian translation is the same as English (so the translation isn't needed), and the function has been replaced by DBCS, which is also not on the spreadsheet.
Fix#3624. Use the same logic as elsewhere in the same module to invoke `imagesavealpha` when appropriate. (I confess that I do not understand the use case where you would not use imagesavealpha.) The fix was easy; writing a test was not. Google to the rescue.
* Cleanup for Phpstan, PHP-CS-Fixer Upgrades
Dependabot wanted to upgrade, but changes resulted in new "errors". Fix them.
* Scrutinizer
It says value must be numeric; Phpstan says it might not be. Try to reconcile them.
