What are good libraries to create a Contour plot in Java? The class ContourPlot in JFreeChart is deprecated, and a reference is made to the XYBlockRenderer class. I would like to have some suggestions.

Edited, I hope it fits the rules now. – Sander Feb 04 '15 at 13:12

I've written recently some simple implementation of filled 2D contour plot in Java and JavaFX - https://github.com/bluevoxel/Contour2DPlot. Maybe you will find it usefull. – bluevoxel Mar 21 '16 at 16:36

@bluevoxel sounds interesting but it's GPL. – Jason S Nov 26 '16 at 05:13

@Jason S Why "but"? – bluevoxel Nov 27 '16 at 17:48

because GPL for libraries forces the containing application to become GPL... which despite what FSF promotes, is a dead end for anyone doing any work in a commercial environment, even if the application is not for-profit (e.g. in my case I work for a semiconductor manufacturer, we produce software tools that are cost-free but not open-source, and we won't touch GPL libraries) – Jason S Nov 28 '16 at 16:42

...and even when we do produce open-source software, we release it under licenses that are not compatible with GPL without the containing application becoming GPL. (can't remember which one at the moment, maybe Apache) *note*: LGPL is fine. – Jason S Nov 28 '16 at 16:48

@Sander as much as we as individuals may appreciate the relevancy of this question (and I certainly do, I found it in a google search), SO considers it inappropriate because it is a software recommendation. – Jason S Nov 28 '16 at 16:51
