Difference between ExcelUtils and ExcelEngine

[Robert Chapman]

The documentation for ExcelUtils says "The usage of this class is not recommended ..." So in a sample app I have used ExcelEngine.

While searching the forum I see that many examples posted are using ExcelUtils instead of ExcelEngine.

Can someone tell me the difference between these and which I should be using?

Hi Rob,

The ExcelUtils class was initially created as a wrapper class to simplify the API usage but we have faced some performance issues regarding its usage, hence the ExcelUtils class will be marked as obsolete soon.Please use the ExcelEngine class in your project.

Thanks,
