does this ObjectData have an associated POIFS Directory Entry? (Not all do, those that don't have a data portion)

getDirectory

DirectoryEntry getDirectory()
                     throws java.io.IOException

Gets the object data. Only call for ones that have data though. See hasDirectoryEntry(). The caller has to close the corresponding POIFSFileSystem

getOLE2ClassName

java.lang.String getOLE2ClassName()
