Hi Tolga,

You need not have uniquely named RealTypes.  Try replacing your code above
with:
   row = RealType.getRealType("X", SI.meter, null);
   column = RealType.getRealType("Y", SI.meter, null);

If RealTypes named "X" and "Y" already exist, this will use those,
and if they do not exist already, it will create them.
