SchemaException in java

Question

I have found a useful tool to convert .csv files into shape files with geotools:

But I have a problem running it, I get following maven error:

Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2.1:exec (default-cli) on project tutorial: Command execution failed. Process exited with an error: 1 (Exit value: 1)

And an error in this line:

final SimpleFeatureType TYPE = DataUtilities.createType(
                "Location",                   // <- the name for our feature type
                "location:Point:srid=4326," + // <- the geometry attribute: Point type
                "name:String"         // <- a String attribute
        );

The error:

Exception in thread "main" org.geotools.feature.SchemaException: Error decoding srs

My POM file is this:

I just had same problem. Maybe this will help someone in the future. Add this to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.geotools</groupId>
        <artifactId>gt-epsg-hsql</artifactId>
        <version>${geotools.version}</version>
</dependency>

Thank you so much, your fix still works with <geotools.version>23-SNAPSHOT</geotools.version>! – Arriola
