           Summary: [PATCH] catching system properties accesses that may
                    throw security exceptions
           Product: POI
           Version: 3.0-dev
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HSSF
        AssignedTo: dev@poi.apache.org
        ReportedBy: me@daniel-white.eu


We're using POI in server environments with tight security settings so we have
been using some customised code to catch exceptions thrown when system
properties are accessed. This patch catches the security exceptions and assigns
a sensible default value. The TempFile class also needs modifying but our
solution has been to use the code used elsewhere in our application for creating
temporary files.

(My first patch, apologies if I've been an idiot in any way!)
