Does it give you a bellyache?
Never mind, you can compare them like this-

System.out.println(gg1.compareTo(gg3));

Errors running builder 'Google WebApp Project Validator'

Error:

Problems occurred building the selected resources.
Errors running builder 'Java Builder' on project 'curve_app'.
com/google/gdt/eclipse/suite/preferences/GdtPreferences
Errors running builder 'Google WebApp Project Validator' on project 'curve_app'.
java.lang.NullPointerException

Workaround solution:

Close all projects, close eclipse.

Start eclipse using, "eclipse -clean" option.

You can try repeating the process 2-3 times,  if it does not work first time.

Not sure of the exact reason why this appears.

Highcharts Phantomjs Export - TypeError: 'undefined' is not an object

Generating a png file from config-

phantomjs-1.8.1/bin/phantomjs highcharts-convert.js -infile config.json  -outfile out1.png -width 300 -scale 2.5 -constr Chart -callback callback.js

Error-

Things to check-
1. The following 3 files should be there in same folder or you have to set the paths to these here-
var config = {
                /* define locations of mandatory javascript files */
                HIGHCHARTS: 'highstock.js',
                HIGHCHARTS_MORE: 'highcharts-more',
                JQUERY: 'jquery-1.8.2.min.js'
        },

2. The 'infile' parameter should have an extension of .json, because that is what it uses to decide between svg input and a configuration json.
