B4J Tutorial Creating 1D and 2D Barcodes using inline Java Code and the ITEXT library

The attached project uses inline Java code and the ITEXT library to create various types of 1D and 2D barcodes. The barcodes are store in a PDF file(s). Change the code in the B4J class or add additional classes in the attached project to create separate PDF files for each of the different 1D and 2D barcodes.

Notice that I have commented the majority of code in the class module so that the project will only create PDF417, Datamatrix, and QR Codes - they are stored in Belinda.pdf that you will find in directory ItextBarcodes of the B4J project - see the code in the class module if you for eg want to save it to the /Files folder of the B4J project.

Sure you will figure out the rest. Browse the web - it is mighty helpful...

Posting the B4J project and the required library files that you should download from HERE (CLICK HERE)

Sample Code (Main Activity):

#Region  Project Attributes
    #MainFormWidth: 800
    #MainFormHeight: 600
    #AdditionalJar: javase-2.2
    #AdditionalJar: itextpdf-5.5.6

#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
    Private fx As JFX
    Private MainForm As Form
  
    Dim itl As itextlib
  
End Sub

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.SetFormStyle("UNIFIED")
    MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("main") 'Load the layout file.
    MainForm.Show
    MainForm.BackColor = fx.Colors.ARGB(100,0,0,255)
  
    itl.Initialize
                
    'change the call here to add variables that you can pass to the class
    'such as for eg the string to encode...It is hard coded in the class at present
    'Also surf the web to find some other possibilities that you can add the the existing B4J class or by adding new classes
    'Use something like "jd-gui" to explore "itextpdf-5.5.6.jar" for other possiblilities
    itl.createPdf
  
End Sub

Code in the project class module:

'Class module
Sub Class_Globals

    Private nativeMe As JavaObject

End Sub

'Initializes the object. You can add parameters to this method if needed.
Public Sub Initialize

nativeMe = Me

End Sub

Public Sub createPdf()

Dim fn As String = "Belinda.pdf"
nativeMe.RunMethod("createPdf", Array(fn))

End Sub

Did you change this line....

Dim fn As String = "Belinda.pdf"

...to something else? A different path?

It sees that your problem is somewhere here

Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\User1\Dropbox\microera\ITEXT_~1\BARCOD~1\ItextBarcodes\Belinda.pdf (The system cannot find the path specified)

As far as what I remember the project writes to the internal Dir of the project. So not sure why you are getting this error...

If folder "ItextBarcodes" don't exist in your project then the app will crash. This folder needs to be on the save folder level as Files and Object of the B4J project.

If it is not in your project then just create it so that your folder structure looks like this

I would suggest you browse the web and then change this line in the inline java code to see if you can sort out your problem

String configFilePath = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir")).getParent() + "/ItextBarcodes/";

It is working as it is on my computer - not sure why it does not want to work on your computer.

 

[js1234]

If you mean itexlib and line is unchanged and is as original:
String configFilePath = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir")).getParent() + "/ItextBarcodes/";

Now compiling is ok but get errors (see bellow)!

I update B4J to 4.0 but now error:

If you mean itexlib and line is unchanged and is as original:
String configFilePath = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir")).getParent() + "/ItextBarcodes/";

Now compiling is ok but get errors (see bellow)!

I update B4J to 4.0 but now error:

OK - then let's get the "doctors" involved. We need to get to the bottom of this and understand why this is happening. Let me just first update my B4J to the latest version and see if I then also have a problem or not. Just so that we all sing from the same hymn book...

Go see this posting and then read further downwards - might be related to the problem that you have. Error seems to be the same.

OK - I have updated to V4.0 and now I have the same problem as what you have. Seems like the answer is the link to the post in my previous thread

Copy Belinda.pdf from the /ItextBarcodes folder to the /Files folder. Then run the project again. It will create an updated Belinda.pdf in the /ItextBarcodes folder. Why it wants Belinda.pdf to be in the /Files folder I don't know. But it is working that way for now. Funny thing is that once Belinda.pdf is in the /Files folder it never gets updated at all. Only Belinda.pdf in the /ItextBarcodes folder gets updated.
