How to draw Stacked Bar Chart in Android Application

I am new to Android. I am on a project and trying to draw stacked bar chart. I did so much research about this kind of bar chart but either those didn't work or I couldn't apply the codes to my project. I guess there are two most popular libraries for charts which are AChartEngine and Charts4j. I checked this code (https://code.google.com/p/charts4j/source/browse/tags/v1.2/example/com/googlecode/charts4j/BarChartExample.java#51)- example1 for Charts4j. However, this code ends with 'url', I have my values in my project, I'll use these values to draw the chart and I don't want to have to have internet to show the chart. I want to be independent from the internet. I couldn't implement this code to my project.

Another library I used is AChartEngine and I found this code (https://code.google.com/p/achartengine/source/browse/trunk/achartengine/demo/org/achartengine/chartdemo/demo/chart/SalesStackedBarChart.java). Because the main class extends some other class, I created other class (AbstractDemoChart) and interface (IDemoChart) and wrote the codes. Eclipse didn't give any error but when I run it on Emulator, I got an error which stopped the app and the warning of 'force close' appeared.

The other examples about bar charts are not relevant what I want exactly. As a result, I couldn't find any solution for my application. Can you help me how to draw stacked bar chart for my Android App with the values that I already have and I want to see this chart independently from the internet?

Thanks in advance guys.

I suggest you download the AChartEngine demo source code and take a look at SalesStackBarChart. Then, on the last line, you can change Type.STACKED to Type.HEAP for an even better stacked bar charts experience.

Androidplot supports stacked bar charts as well. Screenshot from the Androidplot demo app on the play store:

i don't know native android library or extensions to do that, can be difficult to find a good one ore implement a new other. For this i think that you have just used a library HTML/CSS/Javascript.

I think that you can implement with a js library the graph, for example Javascript graph , charge the html/js files in assets and charge it into a web view with this:

html app in android

The only problem is to find a way to pass data to the html, i think that is it possibile in various way, with bridge or using files.
