Exporting Shapefiles from featuretypes that

                 Key: GEOS-2201
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2201
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WFS
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0-RC2, 1.6.4
         Environment: Tested on multiple installations, but all windows-based.
            Reporter: Björn Harrtell
            Assignee: Andrea Aime


When requesting data with WFS and SHAPE-ZIP outputFormat from a featureType 
with heterogeneous (mixed-type) geometry types (but that should still be 
compatible with shapefiles) I get the following error when I try to get data 
including both polygon and multipolygons:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<ServiceExceptionReport
   version="1.2.0"
   xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/ogc";
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ogc 
http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.0.0/OGC-exception.xsd";>
   <ServiceException>
      org.geotools.data.DataSourceException: Cannot create a shapefile whose 
geometry type is class com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry
Cannot create a shapefile whose geometry type is class 
com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry
</ServiceException></ServiceExceptionReport>

With "should still be compatible with shapefiles" I mean mixed geometries like 
points and multipoints in the same collection (same for multilines and 
multipolygons respectively but *NOT* mixed as points and lines in the same 
layer, which I believe is according to shapefile spec.

This was discovered when trying to replace FME as a shapefile exporter from 
ArcSDE with geoserver and postgis as the converted ArcSDE data was mixed as in 
the case described, so if I'm mistaken about shapefiles allowing mixed at all 
then FME must be converting the features before exporting which is a nice 
workaround in my opinion.
