    public class InvalidParameterTypeException

extends IllegalStateException

Thrown when a parameter can't be cast to the requested type. For example this exception is thrown when `ParameterValue.doubleValue(javax.units.Unit)` is invoked but the value is not convertible to a `double`.

Note: This exception is of kind "illegal state" rather than "illegal argument" because it is not caused by a bad argument. It is rather a consequence of invoking the wrong zero-argument method.

Since:
  GeoAPI 1.0
