My application wants to have functionality of reading Barcodes. The image will be captured by a camera and the application should scan the Barcode and use it in some meaningful way.I did a google and stumbled upon -
zxing the open source library for Barcode reader.There is also an application named "Barcode Scanner", written using the same zxing libraries, which I can install and invoke from my application using intents. But, lets say, that is something I cannot do(I dont see a reason to assume that the clients of my application will have that installed).
I will have to probably use the core libraries myself? I am unsure of where to start.
Any pointers or links to tutorials that can help here will be appreciated.
Thanks.
