I was thinking about a back-end process that I can run once per day and generate/save to disk chart images similar to this:
Can this be done in Java or is there any other method that I am not familiar with?
Thanks!
Use one of the methods provided by org.jfree.chart.ChartUtils
, formerly ChartUtilities
as discussed here, to save completed chart images to the file system or write chart images to an output stream. Your application will suggest the appropriate space-time tradeoff, but nothing precludes your mixing strategies as need warrants.
