problems running a demo

Post by hugo » Wed Jun 23, 2004 12:11 pm

I am using NetBeans IDE 3.6 on windows 2000 to develop a Swing application. I want to display a graph of results obtained from a calculation performed by an external program. I was recommended JFreeGraph.

I have downloaded the zip files for JFreeGraph and JCommon and extracted them to

c:/myname/Java/

I did a number of things to try some of the demos working which lead me to the attempt I outline below. (The main demo.jar works fine.)

I mounted the following files and directories which is equivalent to adding them to a classpath :
servlet.jar
junit.jar
gnujaxp.jar
jcommon-0.9.5.jar
jfreechart-0.9.20/src

I then browsed to the src/org/jfree/chart/demo/BarChartDemo and compiled which produced deprecated warnings (which I presume are ignorable for the time being) and then ran it which produce the following errors.

Exception in thread "main"

None of the demos seem to run and in general I have had difficulties getting jfreegraph up and running.

Does anybody know what I can do to fix this or what I am doing wrong?
