[jCharts-users] Serialization problem.

[Greg J. <gr...@dc...>]

Hi,

I have a problem with serialization or maybe I have wrong understanding 
of where Chart object should be instantiated. I saw a post on 2004-05-31 
06:05 (Re: java.io.NotSerializableException: 
org.jCharts.properties.util.ChartFont) which solved some of my problems 
but I still can't make it to work. Here is what I am doing. I have a 
java client-server application which is using RMI for networking. So 
what I am doing is creating a PieChart2D object on a server side and 
then I am trying to send it over the network to a client. Then on a 
client side I am converting it to an image and displaying it. Issue is 
that when I make a request from client to server I get 
java.io.NotSerializableException: java.awt.BasicStroke error. I looked 
through the code and I see that PieChart2DProperties have been fixed to 
use ChartStroke which is now serializable instead of BasicStroke but for 
example LegendProperties still use BasicStroke. So my question, is that 
a bug or I should create my charts on a client side.

Thanks
Greg J
