Re: [Geotools-gt2-users] converting a shapefile data store to a postgis data store

[Jody G. <jod...@gm...>]

Usually when you are writing code we encourage just using the "datastore" api (and do not write your code specifically for shapefile or postgis or wfs). Please just change your datastore creation code and have at it.

Actually one "gotcha" is that there is no "drop table" in the datastore api - only createSchema.
