Creating Auto Shape in PowerPoint Using Java

In this example we are going to create auto shape on PowerPoint slide using
java.
In this example, we are creating the object of AutoShape .We are passing
the shape type into AutoShape as argument parameter .We are passing ShapeTypes.Star32
as shape type. Then we are using setAnchor() method to give the
position of the shape. To fill the color we are using setFillColr(Color
colr) method.
The code of the program is given below:
import org.apache.poi.hslf.HSLFSlideShow;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.model.Slide;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.model.*;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.usermodel.SlideShow;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.usermodel.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.awt.*;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.model.TextBox;
class autoShape
{
public static void main(String a[])
{
try
{ SlideShow slideShow = new SlideShow();
Slide slide = slideShow.createSlide();
AutoShape sh1 = new AutoShape(ShapeTypes.Star32);
sh1.setAnchor(new java.awt.Rectangle
(0, 0, 600, 600));
sh1.setFillColor(Color.red);
AutoShape sh2 = new AutoShape(ShapeTypes.Star32);
sh2.setAnchor(new java.awt.Rectangle
(200, 200, 200, 200));
sh2.setFillColor(Color.green);
AutoShape sh3 = new AutoShape(ShapeTypes.Star32);
sh3.setAnchor(new java.awt.Rectangle
(150, 150, 300, 300));
sh3.setFillColor(Color.red);
AutoShape sh4 = new AutoShape(ShapeTypes.Star32);
sh4.setAnchor(new java.awt.Rectangle
(100, 100, 400, 400));
sh4.setFillColor(Color.green);
slide.addShape(sh1);
slide.addShape(sh4);
slide.addShape(sh3);
slide.addShape(sh2);
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream
("autoShape.ppt");
slideShow.write(out);
out.close();
}catch(Exception e){}
}}
