how can i get protection mode?

[eoikj]

i need to get current protection mode from a docx file.
if the file is protected with STDocProtect.FORMS then delete all comments.
but each time i execute those code it returns null.

Code: Select all

    public static STDocProtect getProtectionType(MainDocumentPart mdp) throws Docx4JException {
        DocumentSettingsPart ds = mdp.getDocumentSettingsPart();
        CTSettings cs = ds.getContents();
        CTDocProtect cp = cs.getDocumentProtection();       
        return cp.getEdit();
    }


how can i do this correctly?

That is to be expected if it is not set in the input docx.

So to start with, please manually check that it is set: unzip the docx and inspect the relevant settings part.
