hi all. i downloaded the openmap libraries and my goal is to be able to read a Shp and its corresponding Dbf file.
i have already done this using the C ShapeFile API but now i need a java version as i am trying to get away from using JNI.
i simply want to read the shapefile and be able to look at the overall lat/lon coordinates and then be able to load into memory all the vertices for that shape and do that for the whole file.
additionally i want to be able to read the DBF file and be able to read values in certain DBF columns that correspond to the shapes that i already have access to so i can do some calculations.
ive looked around through the com.bbn.openmap.dataAccess.shape and i think thats where i need to be but its a bit confusing on which class to use for just doing this. i dont want to write them..just read them and get their values/vertices for both files.
i appreciate your help in advance!
