Code: Select all

setContentPane( chartPanel );
I got error The method setContentPane(ChartPanel) is undefined for the type registro_spesa

The same fragment works in the demos, either old or new.

are u sure setContentPane is a method of JfreeChart class? i found it here https://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/a ... Frame.html
it seems that it is a method of swing.

Yes, I am sure; setContentPane() is a method of the JFreeChart class org.jfree.chart.ui.ApplicationFrame. Note that ApplicationFrame is a JFrame, from which it inherits setContentPane(). The JFreeChart class org.jfree.chart.JFreeChart is not a Swing component, and it has no such method.

You appear to be using an earlier version from a time when org.jfree.ui.ApplicationFrame was in a separate library. Either switch to the new version or add the required JAR to your class path, as shown here.

You can test your existing version like this:

Code: Select all

$ cd /jfreechart/lib
$ java -cp jfreechart-1.0.19.jar:jcommon-1.0.23.jar org.jfree.chart.demo.BarChartDemo1
The current release is cited here.

I reiterate that setContentPane is a method of javax.swing.JFrame class, it is written here http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/api/jav ... Frame.html

I cited examples using org.jfree.chart.ui.ApplicationFrame, and you mention org.jfree.chart.ChartFrame; both are subclasses of javax.swing.JFrame, which provides setContentPane(). When using either, be sure to construct and manipulate Swing GUI objects _only_ on the event dispatch thread.
