I want to create a pie chart that displays percentages. How do I create a pie chart using JFrame in Java?

This is what I have so far:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;

public class PieChart extends JFrame{


private int Midterm;
private int Quizzes;
private int Projects;
private int Final;

public PieChart(){
    setPercentage();

}
private void setPercentage() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

}
//construct a pie chart with percentages
public PieChart(int Midterm, int Quizzes, int Final, int Projects){
this.Midterm = Midterm;
this.Quizzes = Quizzes;
this.Final = Final;
this.Projects = Projects;
}
//return midterm
public int getMidterm(){
    return Midterm;

}
//public void setMidterm(int Midterm){
    //this.Midterm = Midterm;
    //repaint();

//}
//return Quizzes
public int getQuizzes(){
    return Quizzes;

}
public int Final(){
    return Final;
}
public int Projects(){
    return Projects;

}
//draw the circle
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g){
    super.paintComponents(g);

}
//initialize circle parameters
int circleRadius = 
    (int)(Math.min(getWidth(),getHeight())* 0.4);
int xCenter= getWidth()/2;
int yCenter = getHeight()/2;

}

Do you have to develop it on your own? Or can you use an open source API? Maybe JFreeChart has something you can use.

yes I have to develop it on my own. I found another code and its working for me. I do not know how to display the percentages though.

A: 

In the paintComponent method, a Graphics object is passed in. With this, you can use fillArc to draw the various slices and drawString to label them.

Also, I'd suggest that you don't draw directly on the JFrame, but instead do so on a JComponent that you then add to a JFrame.
