Hello All,
I'm trying to follow the very nice Csv2Shp example
(http://geotools.org/examples/csv2shp.html) using version 2.6.3 and am
having a little trouble.
Using the recommended alternative method for creating a SimpleFeatureType:
private static SimpleFeatureType createFeatureType() {
SimpleFeatureTypeBuilder builder = new SimpleFeatureTypeBuilder();
builder.setName("Location");
builder.setCRS(DefaultGeographicCRS.WGS84); // <- Coordinate reference
system
// add attributes in order
builder.add("Location", Point.class);
builder.length(15).add("Name", String.class); // <- 15 chars width for
name field
// build the type
final SimpleFeatureType LOCATION = builder.buildFeatureType();
return LOCATION;
}
I find that the subsequent call "newDataStore.createSchema(TYPE);" throws a
NPE, apparently because the the
GeometryDescriptor is null (ShapefileDataStore.java: line 815).
Can someone please explain what I'm doing wrong here?
Thanks!
