JFreeChart - 如何在TimeSeries图表的X轴上实时显示

Question

我想在TimeSeries图表上显示实时数据，其中实时显示在x轴上（或至少有速度的时间与实时相同）。

下面是随机数字作为实时输入问题的SSCCE。在x轴上示出的时间比实时（假设它被示出为hh：mm：ss的格式）：快得多

public class DynamicTimeSeriesChart extends JPanel { 

    private DynamicTimeSeriesCollection dataset; 
    private JFreeChart chart = null; 

    public DynamicTimeSeriesChart(final String title) { 

     dataset = new DynamicTimeSeriesCollection(1, 2000, new Second()); 
     dataset.setTimeBase(new Second(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1990)); // date 1st jan 0 mins 0 secs 

     dataset.addSeries(new float[1], 0, title); 
     chart = ChartFactory.createTimeSeriesChart(
      title, "Time", title, dataset, true, 
      true, false); 
     final XYPlot plot = chart.getXYPlot(); 

     ValueAxis axis = plot.getDomainAxis(); 
     axis.setAutoRange(true); 
     axis.setFixedAutoRange(200000); // proportional to scroll speed 
     axis = plot.getRangeAxis(); 

     final ChartPanel chartPanel = new ChartPanel(chart); 
     setLayout(new BoxLayout(this, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS)); 
     add(chartPanel); 
    } 

    public void update(float value) { 
     float[] newData = new float[1]; 
     newData[0] = value; 
     dataset.advanceTime(); 
     dataset.appendData(newData); 
    } 

    public static void main(String[] args) { 
     JFrame frame = new JFrame("testing"); 
     frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); 
     final DynamicTimeSeriesChart chart = new DynamicTimeSeriesChart("random numbers"); 
     frame.add(chart); 
     frame.pack(); 
     frame.setVisible(true); 
     Timer timer = new Timer(100, new ActionListener() { 
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { 
       EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() { 
        @Override 
        public void run() { 
         chart.update((float) (Math.random() * 10)); 
        } 
       }); 
      } 
     }); 
     timer.start(); 
    } 
}

尽管可以接受的是sleep()上initial thread，摇摆GUI对象应在事件调度线程上构建和操作只有。而应使用javax.swing.Timer来调整更新，如here所示。 100 ms的delay将以大约10 Hz的频率更新。

如果漂移不可接受，则以另一个线程以名义速率的一半轮询主机的时钟并使用EventQueue.invokeLater()更新数据集。确保主机已同步到NTP服务器。

附录：根据您的更新，注意所有 Swing GUI的对象必须构造和操作只有事件调度线程上，不只是javax.swing.Timer。 Swing Timer的优势在于它在EDT上触发。下面的变化显示大约实时10秒的1Hz数据。

附录：您可以调整传递给setTimeBase()的时间，如here所示。
