Hi, i'm reading the section about opening and wrting the shapefile on screen http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTDOC/09+ShapeLab, when i add this line of code File file = promptShapeFile(args); which is the first line of my applicaion, i get error saying incompatible types java.io.File required but in my code i have the following
import java.io.File; import org.geotools.factory.GeoTools; import java.io.IOException; /** * The application is used to display the shapefile * */ public class App { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { System.out.println("GeoTools version is" + " " + GeoTools.getVersion()); File file = promptShapeFile(args); } } i've tried to also creat a new File instance, but i can seem to find a method which has something to do with shapefile, any suggestions?? cheers -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/09ShapeLab-tp20543003p20543003.html Sent from the geotools-gt2-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Geotools-gt2-users mailing list Geotools-gt2-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geotools-gt2-users
