read.format("magellan") throws scala.NotImplementedError: an implementation is missing

[Elbehery]

I have tried to load many shape files for NYC .. Although some the of the files worked fine, other threw scala.NotImplementedError: an implementation is missing .. I loaded the same files into PostGIS, and it worked fine. So, I am sure the files are not corrupted.

Would like to know the cause of the problem, and to solve the issue if possible.

@Elbehery , @harsha2010, did you investigate that issue? I got the same exception with most of the esri files provided by stats new zealand http://www.stats.govt.nz/browse_for_stats/Maps_and_geography/Geographic-areas/digital-boundary-files.aspx

I believe this is due to the master branch not supporting floating point values in the DBReader. @simonellistonball has an open pull request (#28) with that support added, but it has not been merged in yet to my knowledge.
