Organizational chart/tree in Java

Question

I am trying to make an organizational chart/tree in Java. I tried using Prefuse, but its library was very buggy and I am a bit of a beginner with programming. I also looked into using google's chart tools, but it is JavaScript based. I need to use Java and not JavaScript because I need access to local files. How should I go about doing this?

What problems did you experience with [Prefuse](http://prefuse.org/)? Being a beginner, you are likely to experience issues regardless of what library(s) you are using. — Chris Dargis, Jul 16 '12 at 17:53

Almost every java file in the library had errors, and most of those I couldn't fix. Could that have something to do with the IDE I'm using? — davidVee, Jul 16 '12 at 17:55
In what way did every java file in the library have errors? Perhaps you may want to ask questions about those. — Chris Dargis, Jul 16 '12 at 17:56

I haven't used Prefuse before but perhaps JGraphT may work for you, assuming your organizational chart can be modeled as a graph.
