hi all. I'm new to java 2D graphs and i want to draw a VERTICAL BAR GRAPH in java.So how i develop it?If you have class library or source code pls send me.The graph shuld be change every one hour.That's mean the graph shuld redraw after one hour.If you have any kind of java class library for VERTICAL BAR GRAPH please send me.

Why would you want to wait an hour that is completely ludicrous.

I waite an hour,,,coZ i have existing system for mesure ADSL speeds.That system mesure ADSL speeds one by one hour.SO i have to draw a bar graph for that speeds.Thatz y i waite for an hour for drawing that graph.If you can help me to draw Bar graph coz its an urgent for me.

Thanks a lot for your code

AND

path2D class is not avalable.So how i get that package.
