update:
the problem was solved and the error was that there were two local vars with
the same name, 'poly'. the first one was an instance of my Polyline class
and the second was an instance of the Polygon class. the Polyline class has
no method 'getArea()', but Polygon does.
thanks for lending a hand. very much appreciated. -- matt.
