[birt-charting-dev] data autobinding & piechart rendering

Hi,
 
I am looking into using the birt charting API to render an image from the chart. In the example below I try to create a PIE chart with autobinding to feed my data into the chart model dynamically and render it.
 
I have just started looking at the birt framework. I got the png image rendering working for other examples but not for the pie chart. Is there any working example for autobinding and piecharts? Also any good tutorials on the chart api and its series, datadefinitions, autobinding etc? I'd like to keep my code flexible and would like to dynamically bind data for PIE charts.
 
Any help is appreciated.
 
Thanks!
 
 
 
 
When running the (modified) example below I see a

Exception in thread "main"

java.lang.NullPointerException

The snippet below is the actual code that binds the data to the chart model

String[] set = {

"Items" };

Object[][] data = { {

new Integer(7), new Integer(2), new Integer(5) } };

IDataRowExpressionEvaluator dree =

new DataRowExpressionEvaluator(set,data);

try {

gr.bindData(dree, chart, new RunTimeContext());  // protected IGenerator gr = null;
