How to buy developer guide

Post by deepujain » Sun Jun 17, 2007 10:15 am

Hi,
I want to buy JFreechart developer guide.

1) I am resident of Bangalore India. Is there any store available here where i can go and have a look at the guide and then buy it? Or is online the only way to buy it?
2) Does the guide has tutorials about on how to use the APIs of JFreechart lib?
3) I am new to JFreechart, will the guide be helpful?
Please reply
Thanks
Deepak

Hi Deepak,

Online is the only way to buy the guide and the accompanying demo source code. We don't ship physical copies, but instead make it available for download in Acrobat PDF format (and a zip file for the demo source code). Plus you can download updates free of charge for 1 year (at least) after your purchase.

Most of the feedback I get about the guide is positive and I think especially the demo code people find useful. I continue to update the guide, so over time I think it improves even more.

The income from the guide is allowing me to work full time on JFreeChart, developing new features, doing support, writing more documentation, etc. and this has contributed to the success of JFreeChart.

I'll e-mail you separately about the possibility of evaluating the guide prior to purchasing it.
