    public interface XYItemRenderer

Interface for rendering the visual representation of a single (x, y) item on an `XYPlot`.

To support cloning charts, it is recommended that renderers implement both the `Cloneable` and `PublicCloneable` interfaces.

### initialise

    XYItemRendererState initialise(java.awt.Graphics2D g2,
                                   java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D dataArea,
                                   XYPlot plot,

                                   PlotRenderingInfo info)

  Initialises the renderer then returns the number of 'passes' through the data that the renderer will require (usually just one). This method will be called before the first item is rendered, giving the renderer an opportunity to initialise any state information it wants to maintain. The renderer can do nothing if it chooses.

  Parameters:
    `g2` - the graphics device.
    `dataArea` - the area inside the axes.
    `plot` - the plot.
    `dataset` - the dataset.
    `info` - an optional info collection object to return data back to the caller.
  Returns:
    The number of passes the renderer requires.
