How to upgrade Apache POI version?

[iceja]

I have Alfresco 5.2 project with Apache POI version "3.10.1-20151016-alfresco-patched" and I need to update in up to 5.0.0 version (or 4.0.0). I have add the section

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
            <artifactId>poi</artifactId>
            <version>5.0.0</version>
        </dependency>

But as I can see the class XWPFTableCell still has an old version: /home/katya3/.m2/repository/org/apache/poi/poi-ooxml/3.10.1-20151016-alfresco-patched/poi-ooxml-3.10.1-20151016-alfresco-patched-sources.jar!/org/apache/poi/xwpf/usermodel/XWPFTableCell.java Also I can not see the required method setWidth (added in 4.0.0) so the version is still old. Please teach me how to upgrade?

Thank you!

IMO upgrading Alfresco JAR libraries is not the right approach, as dependencies have been build and tested for that specific version of the Repository.

Probably you can explore any other alternative.
