[udig-devel] IGN's Lambert projection in uDig

Hey Martin, all,

In playing around with the test data from the French mapping agency IGN,
I wanted to change the map display in uDig to the following projection:

PROJCS["NTF_Lambert_II_étendu",
    GEOGCS["GCS_NTF",
        DATUM["D_NTF",
            SPHEROID["Clarke_1880_IGN",6378249.2,293.46602]],
        PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],
        UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],
    PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic"],
    PARAMETER["False_Easting",600000.0],
    PARAMETER["False_Northing",2200000.0],
    PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",2.3372291667],
    PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",45.8989188889],
    PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_2",47.6960144444],
    PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",1.0],
    PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",46.8],
    UNIT["Meter",1.0]]

which did not work. 

Does uDig 1.1-RC11 (late August) still use epsg-wkt. Could that be why
things did not work?

Martin, can Geotools handle this projection without issue?

Thanks,
Adrian
