This is more a netbeans question than a geotools question - but if the variable is being flagged as unused it probably means you are not doing anything with it in your code after initializing it > String[] myFeatureTypeNames = myShapeFileStore.getTypeNames(); > String myFeatureTypeName = myFeatureTypeNames[0]; > just wondering why is it storing the first value of the array in the string > variable? Would you not want to create for loop forexample to store all > feature types names? If you mean why is the return type of getTypeNames() an array it is because there can be more than one type name. But I don't think I understand your question properly...
