birt java api,BIRT：Chart API入门

So I need a few simple pointers with the BIRT chart API.

I am trying to draw a simple line chart of a numeric value over time. I have a vector of (Date,Double) pairs as input. I have read through the examples in org.eclipse.birt.chart.examples but not yet gained enough traction with the API to start making use of it. Just composing a org.eclipse.birt.chart.model.impl.ChartWithAxesImpl has me stumped.

The eventual destination is an Eclipse editor, and that I can do. Is there a tutorial or book anyone can recommend that might get me going with the BIRT chart side?

I should be very grateful

M.

I had the same trouble with the examples from org.eclipse.birt.chart.examples. There are some good java code snippets, but you do not see to what they correspond. This is why I decided to generate all the examples and put them on a web site: BIRT Charts Gallery.
