Graph visualization libraries for SWT/AWT

Question

Is there a mature, solid open-source graph visualization library implementation for SWT or AWT (I am referring to sets of vertices connected with edges, not charts and diagrams)?

Which one do you use/recommend?

I saw Zest for SWT, but could not find a Maven repository for it.

Thank you.

Answer 1

I recommend Prefuse: http://prefuse.org/

Answer 2

Have a look at JUNG ( http://jung.sourceforge.net/ )

Answer 3

If you don't want to use Zest (which I prefer), there is still Draw2D:

Also, there is a good tutorial on this available here:

Display a UML Diagram using Draw2D

Finally, I found this Maven repository:

Repository

Don't really know much about Maven, but isn't this a repository for Zest?:

Zest

Answer 4

Check out Piccolo2D, it supports 2D structured graphics and ZUI. Here is a simple demo of a graph builder. Also, here are some Java applications that are based on Piccolo2D.
