PivotTable in java (Swing)

I was looking for a PivotTable in java(swing) for a long time. I found out three different libraries for PivotTables. Lets check out each one:

1.JIDE – http://www.jidesoft.com/products/pivot.htm

JIDE software looks amazing but it is not an open source project. At the moment I am strictly “opensource” oriented so the JIDE is not the right choice. I would be very glad if they will decided to opensource their libraries. The screenshots looks great.

2.JMAGALLANES – http://sourceforge.net/projects/jmagallanes

It is an opensource project but the project is not active at the moment. The last update is from 2006. I have written an email to the authors and I have got a reply. They have told me they are planning the next release in a few months.

3.OPENSWING – http://oswing.sourceforge.net/

It is an opensource project. The project is active. I have downloaded the opensource library and the pivotTable worked fine. After a while I found a bug (http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=3296825&forum_id=572329) but Mcarniel did his job fast and well. The bug was corrected in the next week.

Below is a picture from my application which presents the use of pivotTable.

The above screen shot is from the hotel reservation software. You are free to launch a demo from http://www.javanus.com/AssistWeb/. Below are the steps used to test a PivotTable:

1.Select “Reports->Reservations” in the menu

2.Select “Search” button

    Hi,

    I am using OpenSwing only for PivotTable. I have not added no additional functionality at the moment. You can check Slovenian version at http://www.javanus.com/AssistWeb/index_si.html.

    Best regards (Lep pozdrav),
