Hi all, just a quick notice to the user community that we're about to completely remove the unsupported shapefile-renderer module from GeoTools 8.x.
The decision is based on the following criteria: - the streaming renderer can now perform just as well as the shapefile renderer (on shapefiles) in most cases (and do better in some) - the extra maintenance effort to keep shapefile-renderer alive does not meet the available resources - the shapefile-renderer is already out of the release in 2.7.x Long story short, if you really need for some reason to use the shapefile renderer and have a strong desire to keep it alive it would now be a good time to offer yourself as a module maintainer :-) Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
