This worked! Thanks, Michael. I had to make a few minor changes to the file. 1: package org.geotools.demo.example; 28: File file = promptShapeFile(args); Then everything worked fine. One more thing about javadocs- I tried to look up the javadocs for the getLength method because I wasn't sure what this was calculating when I put in a polygon shapefile. My NetBeans/mvn did not provide the javadocs for this method, although other geometry methods are documented. I can find javadocs for this method on the internet (version 1.7). From there I find Returns the length of this Geometry . Linear geometries
return their length. Areal geometries return their perimeter. They
override this function to compute the area. Others return 0.0
which tells me I am getting perimeter (although "They override this function to compute the area" is a little obscure). But I am wondering why I can't see this in my IDE?

I forget this every time until I do the first build :) Michael ps. I'll check to see if I put anything about that on the netbeans wiki page 2008/9/5 Jody Garnett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:I was able to go throught the steps and confirm; I added a section at the top of the "First Project" page asking people to run ... mvn -version And confirm what version of Java they were using on the command line there.
