在這里主要貼上JFreeChart做的兩個小例子，分別是柱狀圖和動態顯示JVM內存狀況圖。
先說明一下jfreechart的概念，jfreechart工具基本上把一個圖形分成了幾個邏輯部分：
1.首先是整個的畫布對象(chart)，畫布就相當與一個大的容器，包含一些圖形元素，比如為一張白紙
2.然后是畫圖區域對象(plot)，就是實際圖形所占據的區域，比如為白紙上的一個長方形
3.然后是圖形所需要兩條軸對象(axis)，比如為白紙上的兩條軸線
4.最后是如何進行圖像的繪制對象(render)，比如為一只畫圖的筆
5.除開上面的這些對象，還有一個最主要的就是通過必須的數據集(dataset)來生成圖形了
好了，其它的API就看文檔了。現在開始說開發JFreeChart例子的步驟：
1. 首先下載jfreechart包。
2. 接著用MyEclipse創建一個Java Project.
3. 引用包, 要加入的包是gnujaxp.jar, jfreechart-1.0.12.jar, jcommon-1.0.15.jar
這樣就把開發環境配好了，接下來就是創建類文件。先從柱狀圖開始.

運行后，可看到結果了。
接著下來是動態顯示JVM內存狀況圖的原碼.
