I am new to iphone programming.I have to show the barcode details in console.How can I get the details of barcode.Is there any special API for that barcode reading.Can any one help me with some tutorials and sample codes.Thanks in advance.
I have used ZBar SDK for iPhone for scanning QR Codes and barcodes
,
very simple to implement it in your App:
Here is the link: http://zbar.sourceforge.net/iphone/index.html
Here the SDK: http://sourceforge.net/projects/zbar/files/iPhoneSDK/ZBarSDK-1.2.dmg/download
SDK documentation: http://zbar.sourceforge.net/iphone/sdkdoc/
In the doc check out point 1.1 and 1.2, there is explained how to integrate it in your App.
good luck.
there is a couple of libraries to read a barcode,these are some of them
ZBar is better supported, and easy to integrate. ZXing is a Google/Android sponsored project. It has been ported to iOS, but it is difficult to integrate, only supports 2D barcodes and is not actively maintained. ZBar is definitely the one to go for.
You could also consider supporting Bluetooth scanners. This method is a lot faster and more reliable than using the camera, and since iOS only supports the HID protocol is is very easy to integrate - it behaves very much like an external keyboard.
