JFreeChart Set colors to piechart sections

By using PiePlot object, you can customize colors to the sections of Piechart.

Step 1: Get the PiePlot object from Pie chart.
PiePlot plot = (PiePlot) chart.getPlot();

Step 2: Paint each section to your favorite color using setSectionPaint method of PiePlot object.

plot.setSectionPaint("section1", new Color(255, 0, 0));
import org.jfree.chart.ChartFactory;
import org.jfree.chart.ChartFrame;
import org.jfree.chart.JFreeChart;
import org.jfree.chart.plot.PiePlot;
import org.jfree.data.general.DefaultPieDataset;

public class Main {
 public static void main(String args[]) {
  /* Create dataset */
  DefaultPieDataset dataset = new DefaultPieDataset();
  dataset.setValue("2004-2005", 58);
  dataset.setValue("2005-2006", 41);
  dataset.setValue("2006-2007", 85.3);
  dataset.setValue("2007-2008", 81);

  /* create chart */
  JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createPieChart("Simple Piechart",
    dataset);

  /* Get PiePlot object */
  PiePlot plot = (PiePlot) chart.getPlot();

  /* Set colors to sections */
  plot.setSectionPaint("2004-2005", new Color(255, 0, 0));
  plot.setSectionPaint("2005-2006", new Color(0, 255, 0));
  plot.setSectionPaint("2006-2007", new Color(0, 0, 255));
  plot.setSectionPaint("2007-2008", new Color(0, 0, 0));

  /* create and display chart on frame */
  ChartFrame frame = new ChartFrame("First", chart);
  frame.pack();
  frame.setVisible(true);
 }
}
