Eclipse SWTChart
SWTChart is a powerful library to create charts and display data using SWT. It can be easily used in Java desktop applications. Only a few lines of code are necessary to create interactive and feature rich charts:
public class MyChart extends MassSpectrumChart { public MyChart(Composite parent) { super(parent, SWT.NONE); initialize(); } private void initialize() { IChartSettings chartSettings = getChartSettings(); chartSettings.setCreateMenu(true); applySettings(chartSettings); // List<IBarSeriesData> barSeriesDataList = new ArrayList<IBarSeriesData>(); IBarSeriesData barSeriesData = new BarSeriesData(SeriesConverter.getSeriesXY(SeriesConverter.BAR_SERIES_1)); barSeriesDataList.add(barSeriesData); // addSeriesData(barSeriesDataList); } }
The source code is located here and can easily be cloned:
