Thanks to those who replied to my original question :

[snip]
I am going to develop an application that will display
scientific x-y graphs. Initially at least the graphs
will be very standard, with two labeled axes, and one
or more colour coded curves, together with an appropriate
legend.

[snip]
My question is this: What package/libraries should I be
using ? I could code it all up from scratch using AWT/swing,
but lots of people must have been here before and I don't
want to re-invent the wheel. Could someone give me
some pointers please, or maybe suggest a more appropriate
forum for this question.

Packages that were either suggested or I found from links from suggested packages were:

JFreeChart - http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/
Java Chart Construction Kit (JCCKit) - http://jcckit.sourceforge.net/
JOpenChart Java Library - http://jopenchart.sourceforge.net/
Chart2D - http://chart2d.sourceforge.net/
ThunderGraph -
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=38125
Scientific Graphics Toolkit - http://www.epic.noaa.gov/java/sgt/
Big Faceless Java Graph library -
http://big.faceless.org/products/graph/

I am tending to think I will go with JFreeChart, but I would be very
grateful
to hear from anyone who has used any of the above for some first hand
experience of what they are like to use.

Thanks very much,

Luke Whitaker.
