Hello,
We are using uDig Version 1.1.0 and want to use geotiffs as
background map layer. These geotiffs are produced using Geographic Imager following
attached procedure . Appearently, these geotiffs (attached one example file and
its dumped header: grundriss2.tif) open well in ArcView GIS and Global Mapper,
but throw following error in uDig:
!MESSAGE Error processing extension java.lang.ClassCastException: [J cannot be
cast to com.sun.media.imageioimpl.plugins.tiff.TIFFIFD
!STACK 0
java.lang.ClassCastException: [J cannot be
cast to com.sun.media.imageioimpl.plugins.tiff.TIFFIFD
at
com.sun.media.imageioimpl.plugins.tiff.TIFFImageMetadata.getIFDAsTree(TIFFImageMetadata.java:175)

Do you have a solution for this issue? Do you know any
workaround solution to produce successfully geotiffs from an image file to be
used in uDig?
I thank you very much for your attention
Best regards,
Quirin HAMP
