Create a new Plugin project "de.vogella.jfreechart.pie" using "RCP application with a view" as a template (for help see Eclipse RCP.

Create a Plugin project "de.vogella.jfreechart.libs" for your JFreeChart jars (use Create a plugin project for your jar for details). Please replace the version numbers with the version you are using.

In project "de.vogella.jfreechart.libs" select the MANIFEST.MF and the tab "Dependencies". Press "Add" and select org.eclipse.swt as the same jars to your runtime environment.

Add "de.vogella.jfreechart.libs" as a dependency to project "de.vogella.jfreechart.pie". Select in "de.vogella.jfreechart.pie" the file MANIFEST.MF and select the tab "Dependencies". Press Add and select org.eclipse.swt as the same jars to your runtime environment.

Change the coding of the view to the following:

				
package de.vogella.jfreechart.pie;

import java.awt.Font;

import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart;
import org.jfree.chart.ChartFactory;
import org.jfree.chart.JFreeChart;
import org.jfree.chart.plot.PiePlot;
import org.jfree.data.general.DefaultPieDataset;
import org.jfree.data.general.PieDataset;
import org.jfree.experimental.chart.swt.ChartComposite;

public class View extends ViewPart {
	public static final String ID = "de.vogella.jfreechart.pie.view";

	public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
		JFreeChart chart = createChart(createDataset());
		final ChartComposite frame = new ChartComposite(parent, SWT.NONE,
				chart, true);
	}

	public void setFocus() {
	}

	/**
	 * Creates the Dataset for the Pie chart
	 */
	private PieDataset createDataset() {
		DefaultPieDataset dataset = new DefaultPieDataset();
		dataset.setValue("One", new Double(43.2));
		dataset.setValue("Two", new Double(10.0));
		dataset.setValue("Three", new Double(27.5));
		dataset.setValue("Four", new Double(17.5));
		dataset.setValue("Five", new Double(11.0));
		dataset.setValue("Six", new Double(19.4));
		return dataset;
	}

	/**
	 * Creates the Chart based on a dataset
	 */
	private JFreeChart createChart(PieDataset dataset) {

		JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createPieChart("Pie Chart Demo 1", // chart
				// title
				dataset, // data
				true, // include legend
				true, false);

		PiePlot plot = (PiePlot) chart.getPlot();
		plot.setSectionOutlinesVisible(false);
		plot.setLabelFont(new Font("SansSerif", Font.PLAIN, 12));
		plot.setNoDataMessage("No data available");
		plot.setCircular(false);
		plot.setLabelGap(0.02);
		return chart;

	}
}

The result should look like the following.

Create a new Plugin project "de.vogella.jfreechart.barchart" using "RCP application with a view" as a template.

Add "de.vogella.jfreechart.libs" as a dependency to project "de.vogella.jfreechart.barchart".

Change the coding of the view to the following:

				
package de.vogella.jfreechart.barchart;

import java.awt.Color;

import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart;
import org.jfree.chart.ChartFactory;
import org.jfree.chart.JFreeChart;
import org.jfree.chart.plot.CategoryPlot;
import org.jfree.chart.plot.PlotOrientation;
import org.jfree.data.category.CategoryDataset;
import org.jfree.data.category.DefaultCategoryDataset;
import org.jfree.experimental.chart.swt.ChartComposite;

public class View extends ViewPart {
	public static final String ID = "de.vogella.jfreechart.barchart.view";

	private CategoryDataset createDataset() {
		DefaultCategoryDataset dataset = new DefaultCategoryDataset();

		// row keys...
		String series1 = "First";
		String series2 = "Second";

		// column keys...
		String category1 = "Label 1";
		String category2 = "Label 2";
		String category3 = "Label  3";

		dataset.addValue(1.0, series1, category1);
		dataset.addValue(4.0, series1, category2);
		dataset.addValue(3.0, series1, category3);

		dataset.addValue(5.0, series2, category1);
		dataset.addValue(7.0, series2, category2);
		dataset.addValue(6.0, series2, category3);

		return dataset;
	}

	/**
	 * Creates a chart.
	 * 
	 * @param dataset
	 *            dataset.
	 * 
	 * @return A chart.
	 */
	private JFreeChart createChart(CategoryDataset dataset) {

		JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createBarChart("Bar Chart", // chart
				// title
				"Labels", // domain axis label
				"Values", // range axis label
				dataset, // data
				PlotOrientation.VERTICAL, // orientation
				true, // include legend
				true, // tooltips?
				false // URLs?
				);

		CategoryPlot plot = (CategoryPlot) chart.getPlot();
		plot.setBackgroundPaint(Color.lightGray);
		plot.setDomainGridlinePaint(Color.white);
		plot.setDomainGridlinesVisible(true);
		plot.setRangeGridlinePaint(Color.white);
		return chart;

	}

	public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
		JFreeChart chart = createChart(createDataset());
		final ChartComposite frame = new ChartComposite(parent, SWT.NONE,
				chart, true);
	}

	public void setFocus() {
	}
}
			

Run it and see that it is working.
