Hi everyone,
I am creating a simple Business Intelligence Tool in Java using Eclipse. I only need this tool to get some information off a desired database and then create some graphs and tables (reports).
I took a look at some of the possible packages and decided I would give JFreeChart a try. But the problem is I have no idea how to connect it to my Eclipse application.
Do I need to import it? Do I need a plugin?
Can someone give me a step by step walkthrough of what I need to do.
How do I add the Freechart jars to your project's build path?

or try a seach for 'RCP' or 'SWT' in this forum.
That's an Eclipse question, have a look at the Eclipse-site. (http://www.eclipse.org/home/categories/rcp.php)Ricardo V Gomes wrote: How do I add the Freechart jars to your project's build path?
There you'll find tutorials on building RCP-apps.

Thanks for your help. I have a better idea of what I need to do.
But I'm still having some trouble getting started.
Problems:
Where to put the jars?
- jcommon, jfreechart, jfreechart-swt and jfreechart-experimental
do I just drag them into the plugins folder in Eclipse?
I read that I need to add them to the project buildpath. How do I do that?
I guess I'll ask about code when I get this part sorted.
Thanks
