[Geotools-devel] Trying to use the ShapefileWriter, but it fails

[Mats H. <ma...@he...>]

Here is my code:

   String file = "F:/upl/build/maps/world";
   URL url = new URL("file://" + file);
   ShapefileReader reader = new ShapefileReader(url);
   Theme t = reader.getTheme();
   GeoData[] data = reader.readData();

   for (int i = 0; i < data.length; i++)
   {
       t.setGeoData(data[i]);
   }

   // Works fine until here

   ShapefileWriter writer = new ShapefileWriter("map", t);

This is what I get:

Anyone with a clue? That warning should be benign,
because reading works fine in my applet.
