Good Job Don

@DonManfred - this is a work of art! I love it! I have changed the code in your B4A example "Sub Button1_Click" to....

Sub Button1_Click
 
    Dim mylist As List = Array As String("UPC_A", "UPC_E", "EAN_8", "EAN_13", "RSS_14", "UPC_A", "UPC_E", "UPC_EAN_EXTENSION", "EAN_8", "EAN_13", "CODABAR", "CODE_39", "CODE_93", "CODE_128", "ITF", "RSS_14", "RSS_EXPANDED", "QR_CODE", "DATA_MATRIX", "PDF_417", "AZTEC")
    scanner.setBeep(True).setInfo("DonManfred presents").setInfoBoxColor(Colors.Blue).setToolbarColor(Colors.Red).setVibration(True).showInfoBox(True).initiateScan3(mylist)
  
End Sub

...and it reads all of the barcodes listed in "mylist"

A Super Super nice lib! Thanks for posting it!

WOW, great! I wrote the wrapper for this "Collection" but i was not sure if it will work with b4a. Did not have the time to investigate.

Thank you four your snippet!! I´ll add them to the example.

Wow, great job!

There is a little problem, the resources lack the new resolution for larger screens so in latest phones, icons look bad.

Can you update the code to use icons at 24dp instead of 18dp?

Also, include the "drawable-xxxhdpi"

https://design.google.com/icons/#ic_center_focus_weak
https://design.google.com/icons/#ic_center_focus_strong
https://design.google.com/icons/#ic_flash_off
https://design.google.com/icons/#ic_flash_on

(if not, a work around for users, is downloading 24dp and renaming all the files to 18dp.)

- Update to b4a 6+. Android has changed the big google pay services jar into smaller pieces inside the maven repository. Take care of the notes regarding b4a 6 in the release thread.
- Update Appcompat and DesignSupport libraries to newest versions. Take care of the notes regarding b4a 6 inside the supportthreads of these libs.

cannot read this barcode... i dont know what type it is...

cannot read this barcode... i dont know what type it is...

I have tried scanning it with a number of different barcode scanners and none of them can identify it. Might be some sort of "non-standard" barcode I guess

 

[LocalHostArezzo]

May be this is a stupid question but ...
Is it possible use a built in laser scanner (not the camera)?
If yes how?

 

[DonManfred]

Is it possible use a built in laser scanner (not the camera)?

Not with this lib. The lib depends on the Camera.

For your Built-In Scanner you probably need to use the API from this scanner to use it. Maybe there is an SDK available for this device. You need to write a wrapper for this SDK to use it in B4A.

Is this still available for download ?

I went to download this library and have a look at it,but it is no longer available (404 error)

 

[DonManfred]

Use https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...de-scanner-that-is-100-embedded-in-b4a.63764/
or any other lib from Johan or maybe better https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...on-google-play-services-vision.89705/#content

 

[rkmoray]

I need a lib that allow me to scan only 2 codes(qrcode and 128).
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...de-scanner-that-is-100-embedded-in-b4a.63764/ doesn't seem to allow me to select formats, it scans all and is too slow.
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...on-google-play-services-vision.89705/#content is not scanning, it only seems to take pics.
