Compatibility Issue with poi jar : latest poi jar with jasperreports-6.16.0

[bhansali.mukesh]

Hello Team,

We are Blocked on third party upgrade for poi jar due to Jasper Library Dependency.

Here is Detail :

    We are using Jasper Reporting Library Version : jasperreports-6.16.0
    It is working with a older version of poi jar : 4.1.2
    We want to upgrade poi jar to latest.
    But New Version is not compatible with Jasper Library.

Can we have a fix here or any work around to upgrade poi jar ?

Below is error log after poi Upgrade :

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFFont.getIndex()S
    at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRXlsExporter$StyleInfo.computeHash(JRXlsExporter.java:2650)
    at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRXlsExporter$StyleInfo.<init>(JRXlsExporter.java:2640)

Thanks in advance
