Dynamic & Realtime Data

For adding new data to the chart or removing data dynamically, there are various methods that allow to either add or remove Entry objects to an existing DataSet or DataSet objects to/from an existing ChartData object.

Class DataSet (and all subclasses):

• addEntry(Entry e): Adds the given Entry object to the DataSet.

Class ChartData (and all subclasses):

• addEntry(Entry e, int dataSetIndex): Adds the given Entry to the DataSet at the specified dataset index.
• addDataSet(DataSet d): Adds the given DataSet object to the ChartData object.

In addition to that, there are also methods for removing data dynamically.

Class DataSet (and all subclasses):

• public boolean removeEntry(Entry e): Removes the given Entry object from the DataSet. Returns true if successful.
• public boolean removeEntry(int xIndex): Removes the Entry at the given x-index from the DataSet. Returns true if successful.

Class ChartData (and all subclasses):

• public boolean removeEntry(Entry e, int dataSetIndex): Removes the given Entry object from the DataSet with the given dataset index. Returns true if successful.
• public boolean removeEntry(int xIndex, int dataSetIndex): Removes the Entry at the given x-index from the DataSet with the given dataset index. Returns true if successful.
• public boolean removeDataSet(DataSet d): Removes the given DataSet object from the ChartData object. Returns true if successful.
• public boolean removeDataSet(int index): Removes the DataSet at the given index from the ChartData object. Returns true if successful.
