Conditional text

The following example shows how to use a conditional text field that displays different text based on a condition.

import com.independentsoft.office.odf.Paragraph;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.TextDocument;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.fields.ConditionalText;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.fields.SimpleVariableDeclaration;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.fields.SimpleVariableSetField;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.fields.VariableValueType;

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            TextDocument doc = new TextDocument();

            SimpleVariableDeclaration decl = new SimpleVariableDeclaration();
            decl.setName("score");
            decl.setType(VariableValueType.FLOAT);
            doc.getSimpleVariableDeclarations().add(decl);

            SimpleVariableSetField setScore = new SimpleVariableSetField();
            setScore.setName("score");
            setScore.setType(VariableValueType.FLOAT);
            setScore.setFormula("85");

            ConditionalText condText = new ConditionalText();
            condText.setCondition("$score >= 60");
            condText.setValueIfTrue("Pass");
            condText.setValueIfFalse("Fail");

            Paragraph p1 = new Paragraph();
            p1.add(setScore);
            p1.add("Result: ");
            p1.add(condText);
            doc.getBody().add(p1);

            doc.save("c:\\test\\output.odt", true);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
