As you may know, there is no beautiful and free chart(not plot, you can find the examples at http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart, http://www.rmchart.com) module for python than runs on windows/linux/mac osx.
On the other hand, there is a living package(http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart) for java, and it is nice. So what about make the interface to JFreeChart via jpype(http://jpype.sourceforge.net), or rewrite JFreeChart in and for Python to kick off JVM? I have tried this, but since I don't know Java, I did not go further. If anyone can help me with the following code, or organzie a py_jfreechart team, or put up a pyFreeChart team, that would be great. Thanks [code] import jpype p=r'e:\Java\j2re1.4.0\bin\client\jvm.dll' jpype.startJVM(p, r'-Djava.class.path=h:\jfreechart-1.0.9\lib\jfreechart-1.0.9.jar' ) pkg=jpype.JPackage("org.jfree.data") print pkg.DefaultKeyedValues print pkg.DefaultKeyedValues.DefaultKeyedValues print pkg.DefaultKeyedValues.DefaultKeyedValues.DefaultKeyedValues jc=jpype.JClass("org.jfree.data.DefaultKeyedValues") [/code] [msg] <Java package org.jfree.data.DefaultKeyedValues> <Java package org.jfree.data.DefaultKeyedValues.DefaultKeyedValues> <Java package org.jfree.data.DefaultKeyedValues.DefaultKeyedValues.DefaultKeyedV alues> Traceback (most recent call last): File "H:\jfreechart-1.0.9\lib\b.py", line 11, in <module> jc=jpype.JClass("org.jfree.data.DefaultKeyedValues") File "H:\jfreechart-1.0.9\lib\jpype\_jclass.py", line 54, in JClass raise _RUNTIMEEXCEPTION.PYEXC("Class %s not found" % name) jpype._jexception.ExceptionPyRaisable: java.lang.Exception: Class org.jfree.data.DefaultKeyedValues not found [/msg] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
