java - NoSuchMethodException while calling GeometryJSON().read() -

i using jts (from vividsolutions) , geotools. have following code:

public geometry jsontogeom(string json) throws ioexception {     geometry obj = new geometryjson().read(json);     return obj; } 

however, returns following runtimeexception:

java.lang.runtimeexception: java.lang.nosuchmethodexception: org.geotools.geojson.feature.featurehandler.<init>(com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.geometryfactory) @ org.geotools.geojson.delegatinghandler.createdelegate(delegatinghandler.java:130) @ org.geotools.geojson.geom.geometryhandler.primitive(geometryhandler.java:68) @ org.json.simple.parser.jsonparser.parse(unknown source) @ org.json.simple.parser.jsonparser.parse(unknown source) @ org.geotools.geojson.geojsonutil.parse(geojsonutil.java:236) @ org.geotools.geojson.geom.geometryjson.parse(geometryjson.java:655) @ org.geotools.geojson.geom.geometryjson.read(geometryjson.java:196) @ am.abhi.experiments.geotoolstest.geojson.jsontogeom(geojson.java:13) @ am.abhi.experiments.geotoolstest.sometest.testsomething(sometest.java:22) @ sun.reflect.nativemethodaccessorimpl.invoke0(native method) @ sun.reflect.nativemethodaccessorimpl.invoke(nativemethodaccessorimpl.java:57) @ sun.reflect.delegatingmethodaccessorimpl.invoke(delegatingmethodaccessorimpl.java:43) @ java.lang.reflect.method.invoke(method.java:606) @ junit.framework.testcase.runtest(testcase.java:176) @ junit.framework.testcase.runbare(testcase.java:141) @ junit.framework.testresult$1.protect(testresult.java:122) @ junit.framework.testresult.runprotected(testresult.java:142) @ junit.framework.testresult.run(testresult.java:125) @ junit.framework.testcase.run(testcase.java:129) @ junit.framework.testsuite.runtest(testsuite.java:255) @ junit.framework.testsuite.run(testsuite.java:250) @ org.junit.internal.runners.junit38classrunner.run(junit38classrunner.java:84) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.junit4.junit4provider.execute(junit4provider.java:252) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.junit4.junit4provider.executetestset(junit4provider.java:141) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.junit4.junit4provider.invoke(junit4provider.java:112) @ sun.reflect.nativemethodaccessorimpl.invoke0(native method) @ sun.reflect.nativemethodaccessorimpl.invoke(nativemethodaccessorimpl.java:57) @ sun.reflect.delegatingmethodaccessorimpl.invoke(delegatingmethodaccessorimpl.java:43) @ java.lang.reflect.method.invoke(method.java:606) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.util.reflectionutils.invokemethodwitharray(reflectionutils.java:189) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.providerfactory$providerproxy.invoke(providerfactory.java:165) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.providerfactory.invokeprovider(providerfactory.java:85) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.forkedbooter.runsuitesinprocess(forkedbooter.java:115) @ org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.forkedbooter.main(forkedbooter.java:75) caused by: java.lang.nosuchmethodexception: org.geotools.geojson.feature.featurehandler.<init>(com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.geometryfactory) @ java.lang.class.getconstructor0(class.java:2849) @ java.lang.class.getconstructor(class.java:1718) @ org.geotools.geojson.delegatinghandler.createdelegate(delegatinghandler.java:123) ... 33 more 

on stepping through code, found method in org.geotools.geojson.delegatinghandler causes error:

protected icontenthandler createdelegate(class clazz, object[] args) {     try {         if (args != null && args.length > 0) {             class[] types = new class[args.length];             (int = 0; < args.length; i++) {                 types[i] = args[i].getclass();             }              return (icontenthandler) clazz.getconstructor(types).newinstance(args);         }         else {             return (icontenthandler) clazz.newinstance();         }      } catch (exception e) {         throw new runtimeexception(e);     } } 

on line return (icontenthandler) clazz.getconstructor(types).newinstance(args).

it fails when calls featurehandler , tries pass geometryfactory argument. on jts 1.8 , geotools 13-snapshot.

any or workaround appreciated.

you have wrong version of jts - suspect means didn't use maven. need version 1.13 work geotools 13-snapshot.
