Add Graphs by Using JFree Chart

Recently i want to add graphs in PMS application. There are too many ways to do this.One of them is JFree Chart.Steps for this are following..

Step1: Download Demo Application of JfreeChart demo and get library jar.

Step2: Add following lines in your code and import files which is required.

JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createPieChart("Pie Chart created by Deepak Pandey", pieDataset, true, true,true);
BufferedImage bi = chart.createBufferedImage(500, 500);
chart.setBackgroundPaint(new Color(173, 230, 163));
BufferedImage buf = chart.createBufferedImage(500, 500, null);
try {
JPEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(response.getOutputStream());
JPEGEncodeParam param = encoder.getDefaultJPEGEncodeParam(buf);
param.setQuality(0.75f, true);
encoder.encode(buf, param);

} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception in JSP"+e);
}

Step3: Run you application

You can create this chart on a frame.
Create JFrame Object. and then add JFreeChart object and make this JFrame Object visible.

Custom tag

1)Create a class which extends BodyTagSupport or implements Tag

package deep;

import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTagSupport;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.jsp.*;
import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.*;


public class Deepak extends BodyTagSupport {



BodyContent bodyContent;


public int doStartTag() throws JspException {

return EVAL_BODY_TAG;
OR
return SKIP_BODY;

}

public void setBodyContent(BodyContent
bodyContent) {
this.bodyContent = bodyContent;
}

public int doAfterBody() throws JspException {

return EVAL_BODY_TAG;
OR
return SKIP_BODY;

}

public int doEndTag() throws JspException {

return EVAL_PAGE;
}
}
//If It returns SKIP_PAGE,then code after the tag will not be executed ,in case of EVAL_PAGE it willbe calculated
2)Create tld(For ex:deep.tld)

3)Edit your web.xml

4)Add line in your JSP page
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tag/name.tld" prefix="n" %>

and use tag which you defined earlier


5)Run your application

These are the steps which involved in making custom tag.Any suggestion or correction,plz leave comment.

Thanks
