Hi, i downloaded version 18.3 of Aspose words, but interface IMailMergeDataSource changed… and the method getValue has now following signature:

public boolean getValue(String string, zz95 zz95) throws Exception;

in previous versions the signature was as follows:

public boolean getValue(String fieldName, Object[] fieldValue) throws Exception

My code doesnt compile anymore…what should i do ??
thanks

@simone.padovan,

Thanks for your inquiry. This issue has been resolved in latest version of Aspose.Words for Java 18.4.

The signature of getValue method is changed:
public boolean getValue(final String field, final Object[] value)

The new signature of this method is:
public boolean getValue(String var1, Ref<Object> value)

You can use com.aspose.words.ref.Ref as shown below.

public boolean getValue(String s, com.aspose.words.ref.Ref<Object> ref) throws Exception {
 ref.set("new value");
 return false;
}
