import_reference_resolver

Defined in header: <orcus/spreadsheet/import_interface.hpp>

class import_reference_resolver

This is an interface to allow the implementor to provide its own reference address parsers, for both single cell references and cell range references. The implementor may choose to provide a different parser depending of the type of formula_ref_context_t argument given to the import_factory::get_reference_resolver() call.
