Hi everybody,
I'm looking for different feedback about frameworks which provides
client-side charts, especially well integrated with GWT MVP
Architecture (I managed to persuade my client to migrate to GWT
2.2.0 :p ) . I don't know which solution fit the best and the
community didn't discuss about it for a while...
What about your XP ? JS wrapper, clientsidegchart, GXT ?
Thanks for your feedback !

I think it doesn't make any difference if you use MVP architecture or not for charts. You will treat them as any other widgets.
For time-series charts I use Dygraphs (http://dygraphs.com/) and I forked the project and modified it a little bit so I can also use it as a scatterchart.
There are some other charting libraries but for most of them you have to write your own GWT wrappers or directly interact with JSNI:

I only used the GXT-Charts until now. They are very easy to implement
and, imo, they are looking great. But you have to use Flash to display
the charts in your browser ;/ . If you dont use GXT, why include such
a big "framework"? Only for generating some charts?
If you want to use the GWT-Framework to generate some charts, you can
have a look at the GWT-API-libs:
http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/apis/chart/
http://code.google.com/docreader/#p=gwt-google-apis&s=gwt-google-apis&t=ChartTools
-> you can also use your MVP-arch. But its only an API.... not a
Framework or a Lib. as GXT f.e.
There is no "best" solution for every problem, only one "best
practise" for a specific problem ;) .
Greetings

Not exactly client-side, but I generate charts on my server using
JFreeChart and it's pretty nice. I do this because there's a lot of
data in my charts and it doesn't make sense to send it all client-side
first.
At some point I want to do some client rendering and for this I've
been looking at canvas based tools like flot.
Good luck!

another important question is if you GWT application has access to the
internet or not.
e.g. the Google Visualization API is great, but will not work offline
I think chronoscope (an interactive time series chart) can also be
used offline:
a nice offline time-chart is: http://timepedia.org/chronoscope/

What about clientsidegchart? (http://code.google.com/p/
clientsidegchart/?redir=1)
I took a look at it and it looks kind of complex to create the charts,
but the style is pretty nice!
Anyone tried those and can tell if the library worked for him / her?

Ok first of all thanks for sharing your XP ;)
@Martin Trummer
In fact I don't have internet access while most of applications we are
developing are located on client's intranet :( I'll take a look on
chronoscope :)
@Daniel Renner
GXT was my first idea but GPLv3 or Commercial License don't fit my
client's strategy (only Apache , MIT,... without copyleft).
@opn
Although its license policy is pretty good, I think that i couldn't
explain to my client that all charts in his application would be based
on a stack maintained by a few people with no visibility on their
roadmap.
(and the charts are not such pretty as other Ajax framework like
jQuery / ext-js).
In the same time of my investigation,I'm trying to build a wrapper for
jQPlot which seems to draw pretty charts without any pain and it looks
really good.

There was an announcement just yesterday of a visualization library,
Protovis-GWT.
Protovis-GWT.
http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/browse_thread/thread/6857b43f4563a335
It looked pretty nice from the examples. I haven't looked at the API
yet, though.

In case you miss it, there's an adapter for FusionCharts in GWT
classes, check out the demo:
http://fusionadapter.com/demo.html
it actually only needs the chart (Flash) plugins, no need to include
any js from your host html.
