Hi Team,

We are trying to migrate from Actuate to Aspose and here we are facing the issue to find the alternative for the below actuate code.

bm_book.getBook().gc(collectFormats, collectFormulas)

Can you please let us know how can we do the same in Aspose.

Thanks,

AsposeEvaluation.

You could explain to us with sample input and expected output files and you can created expected output files manually using MS-Excel.

It will help us look into your issue precisely and we will help you asap.

Hi,

Below you find the details on the Actuate API for Garbage Collection.

The following statement collects formatting and formula garbage:

boolean collectFormats = true;

boolean collectFormulas = true;

bm_book.getBook().gc(collectFormats, collectFormulas);

Please help to have a workaround for the same in Aspose.

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks for considering Aspose.Cells.

This does not seem to be any Excel related feature but it looks like the internal mechanism or memory management model of Actuate. There is no need of such a function in Aspose.Cells because Aspose.Cells manages memory internally and user does not need to call any specific function like this to make Aspose.Cells to garbage collect some formats or formulas.
