At the moment GRETL uses iox-wkf to read and write shape files. It's unclear if iox-wkf still works if GRETL is upgraded to Java 21 therefore one idea would be to find a replacement library.

The problem is not iox-wkf per se but the underlying GeoTools version. It has to be iox-wkf since we really rely on IoxReader (and its magic like validating data). As far as I remember we use GeoTools only for reading/writing Shapefiles.

Heute verwenden wird Geotools als Lib für Lesen und Schreiben von Shapefiles. Drüber wird noch besagte iox-wkf Lib gestülpt. Das Rüberstülpen muss eh erhalten bleiben (damit z.B. Shapefiles geprüft werden können). Wenn es eine gute read/write-Lib für Shapefiles gibt, muss man das mit iox-wkf absprechen.
