  Well, I don't have an answer to my question, and have actually come up
with another question, but I did solve my problem.  I just don't know
why it worked.

  The domain is time and I have some values I wish to plot (2D).  When I
created the FunctionType needed I passed (timeType, valType) and kept
getting the exception below.  However, when I made a RealTupleType out
of my timeType, then passed timeTuple to the FunctionType constructor,
the exception went away and all is good.

  I think it's time to study the Component Library Developers' Guide
some more...
