Hello All -- I have what is probably a simple problem to you all, but is so far baffling me, a statistics guy doing programming. I am hoping that someone may have actually done what I am trying to do.
At the end of some serious mathematical calculations (logistic regression) I generate a graph in a JPanel. My problem is that I might do this a few hundred times for a given run of the program. What I want to do is save the contents of _each_ graph as a jpeg rather than do lots of screen captures. In preparation for coding I have been learning a bit about IMAGEIO, etc., but am stumped about one aspect of my anticipated process: how do I get the contents of a content pane into an image format? I am assuming that I can't just cast it somehow; I am also assuming that I cannot simply draw to an image the same way that I draw to the content pane. (These assumptions may be wrong??) I did run across a forum where someone said that they had not done it, but it SHOULD work in practice and then gave a strategy for doing it. Is there anyone who HAS done this and could offer a general strategy? I am OK with the coding before and after the panel contents --> image step. (Strategy much appreciated, sample code that works adored!) References to the literature are fine also... Thank you in advance. -- Chris Chris Olsen H.S.
