Where is class 'Legend'

[rong_bo]

Actually this problem is from another issue (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=117569), and compiler said no class 'Legend' when trying to uprade an some old codes.

Here is the code,

Code: Select all

JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createPieChart3D(
		"", //Title
		pieDataset, //Dataset
		false, //Show legend
		true, //Use tooltips
		false //Configure chart to generate URLs?
		);
// set legend here
Legend legend= Legend.createInstance(chart);
chart.setLegend(legend);
legend.setAnchor(Legend.EAST);
 

Can anybody tell me how to upgrade this code?

The factory method shown passes your legend request on to the relevant JFreeChart constructor. Either change the request to true, for the default location, or create your own factory having a LegendTitle with a different RectangleEdge, for example:

Code: Select all

legend.setPosition(RectangleEdge.RIGHT);

Thanks for your reply,

These are old codes and use jfreechart 1.0.0 pre2, and I want to upgrade to latest version, but I cannot find the class 'Legend' in current jfreechart, so this class has been removed from jfreechart?

At some point the legend code was changed to fit into the chart title / subtitle layout mechanism, so the class is now LegendTitle. The API is not the same, so your existing code (which must be very old) won't map that well.
