SoftwareFX.ChartFX
Class ListProvider

java.lang.Object
  SoftwareFX.ChartFX.ListProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

IDataProvider

public final class ListProvider
extends java.lang.Object
implements IDataProvider

Provides access to the ListProvider object.

In many situations, the data is contained in a Lists, Collections or Arrays. Although you can use the Chart FX API to loop through array elements, read and populate the chart, you can do so in an easier way.

The ListProvider allows you to populate the chart from List and Arrays:

int[] valArray = {12, 15, 10, 7, 5};

ListProvider lstProvider = new ListProvider(valArray);

chart1.setDataSource(lstProvider);

You also load data from more than one array:

int[] series1 = {12, 15, 10};

int[] series2 = {20, 25, 7};

string[] labels = {"Yes", "No", "Don't know"};

ListProvider lstProvider = new ListProvider();

lstProvider.add(series1);

lstProvider.add(series2);

lstProvider.add(labels);

chart1.setDataSource(lstProvider);
