Where should I start for a flowchart drawing application in Java

I want to build a desktop application using Java. The purpose will be drawing a kind of flowchart so I will have some objects in a palette and I will drag and drop the objects to a workspace. Then the workspace will generate some xml according to the objects. You can think that, in result I will have a Microsoft Visio like application but a very simplified version and also capable of generating some xml representation of the drawn flowchart.

Where should I start for such an application? Which libraries/frameworks can I use?

Thanks..

I have used Prefuse to do something similar. It hasn't had any activity since 2011 but still works in Java 8.

You could also try JavaFX.
