Have you tried looking at the JFreeChart demos? See here.

If you find a sample that suits what you want to do, searching for the name of the demo in Google often pulls up the demo source code from (for example) Koders: PieChartDemo1.java

Answer 3

This is a sizeable set of JFreeChart examples, including source code for each example. There's a set of XY-chart examples. I did pay for the manuals some time ago, but in fact the examples above are sufficient to get you where you want to be.

Note that JFreeChart claims not to be suitable for fast dynamic updating, although in practice I've never found any problems with this.
