[geotk] Writing Shapefile Example

[Torey Alford]

I'm trying to create a shapefile with geotoolkit, and I keep getting 
weird issues w/it trying to open a Reader when I clearly need a writer:


---------code snippit--------------
ShapefileDataStore store = new ShapefileDataStore(file.toURI().toURL());
SimpleFeatureType featureType = createFeatureType();
final Session session = store.createSession(true);
FeatureCollection collection = session
     .getFeatureCollection(QueryBuilder.all(featureType.getName()));

for (Result result : list) {
     Feature feature = FeatureUtilities.defaultFeature(featureType, "");
     ...
     collection.add(feature);
}
session.commit();

-----end code snippit--------------
