[Gdal-dev] Java library for reading ESRI shapefiles?

[Tim Beckmann]

Does anyone know of a freely available Java library for reading ESRI 
shapefiles?  The gdal ogr and shapelib code has been great in the past, 
but now I have a need to read ESRI shapefiles directly from a Java applet.

Thanks
Tim
