Zxing Android Generate 1d Barcode

I've gone through the examples here regarding encoding barcode: http://code.google.com/p/zxing/source/browse/trunk/androidtest/src/com/google/zxing/client/androidtest/ZXingTestAct

Solution 1:

You need the javadoc for Intents. You need ENCODE_FORMAT, not ENCODE_TYPE.

Solution 2:

To encode/generate 1D barcode

Intentintent=newIntent("com.google.zxing.client.android.ENCODE");

intent.putExtra("ENCODE_FORMAT", "UPC_A");
intent.putExtra("ENCODE_DATA", "12345678901");

startActivity(intent);

The key here is ENCODE_FORMAT & the 1D barcode format in this case UPC_A & the data (for UPC code it has to be 11/12 digits) to encode

Hope this helps
