Detailed Description

These function calls are required to produce a barcode with standard settings.

The barcode can then be drawn on a device context using BCDraw() or written to file using BCPostscriptToFile() (or similar). Some of these functions are only necessary for applications which are using a static library of TBarCode.

Note

A static library is available on request only. Please contact suppo.nosp@m.rt@t.nosp@m.ec-it.nosp@m..com

The following examples shows how you will use these functions in your code.

/* License TBarCode */
BCLicenseMe("LicenseeName", eLicKindDeveloper, 1, "LicenseKey", eLicProd2D);

/* Allocate memory and retrieve barcode handle (pointer) */
t_BarCode* pBC;
BCAlloc(&pBC);

/* Set barcode symbology, data and other properties. */
...

/* Create barcode pattern (bars, spaces) */
BCCreate(pBC);

/* Call functions to draw or save barcodes */
...

/* Release memory / free barcode structure */
BCFree(pBC);
