Overloaded methods For methods with same name but different parameters, only the first method overload retains the original name. Subsequent overloads are uniquely renamed by appending to the method name '_2', '_3', etc (method, method_2, method_3), an integer that corresponds to the order of declaration that can be found in EasyXLS.h, a file that comes with EasyXLS installation.
EasyXLS on Linux, Mac, Windows using Java with PHP
If you opt for the Java version of EasyXLS, a similar code as above requires PHP/Java Bridge between PHP and Java.

Linux and PHP This code sample works just the way it is for PHP on Windows, but PHP under Linux requires also PHP/Java Bridge and a similar code sample in Java.
