barnhill / barcode-java Goto Github PK

hello,

Thanks for the library, I'm using it from quite a long time and it works nice!

I was using the 1.x branch and wanted to switch to the latest (2.6.1) but I see the artifacts are hosed since 2.2. I get the error:
The following artifacts could not be resolved: com.pnuema.java:barcode:jar:2.6.1 (absent) when using the dependency example shown in the README.

If I check on mvnrepository, it's ok in 2.1:

But in 2.2, it's not published the same we see a -jar.jar:

I see a commit mentioning a classifier change which is certainly the -jar is all about.
I did not add the dependency in a fancy way but it does not see to work anymore from 2.2 onwards.

best regards,
--Stef

When creating a EAN13 with standardized label something is broken with the computation of the white boxes and the font heights. Especially is looks like setFont() is never called internally in this code flow and defaults to something

        Barcode b = new Barcode();
        b.setIncludeLabel(true);
        b.setLabelFont(new Font("Monospace", Font.PLAIN, 25));
        // EAN13 "standardized label tries to separate the digits and blank out the lower bounds of two
        // blocks in the EAN, to look like what we find on some products. however it fails to adjust the font
        // size and looks awful
        b.setStandardizeLabel(true); //change to false and it looks ok, but not "standardized"
        BufferedImage img = (BufferedImage) b.encode(Barcode.TYPE.EAN13, val);

version: 'com.pnuema.java:barcode:1.10'

This code just produces a solid
barcode with no text, it is not teh same as the sample image.

Barcode barcode = new Barcode(); Image img = barcode.encode(BarcodeLib.TYPE.UPCA, "038000356216");

Maven dependency is not available.

The line 914 in barcode.java.

if ((getLabelPosition().ordinal() & Labels.LabelPositions.TOP.ordinal()) > 0)

Labels.LabelPositions.TOP.ordinal() is 0, So it is always 0. Maybe we just check the enum not enum's value.

When generating a pharmacode barcode with the value 3 or 4 or 5 then I only seem to get a solid black box, i.e. a single barcode line that fills the area I specify.

When generating a pharmacode barcode with the value 6, I correctly get a wide bar, space and wide bar, however, generating with 7 or 8 or 9 also gives the same barcode as when using 6 as the value.

10101110111010 in position 8 is incorrect and this corresponds to the value for 0. Move this to the front of the list and it should correct this issue

Hi Brad
I got some error when trying to run the project
Is there some settings to make before using it?

README-compile-error.diff.log

Does not encode
905216900040000000045771410179249000474750

correctly as a standard C128 barcode. Its starting with the CODE_A char which is incorrect as this is all numeric and should detect that and use CODE_C

Im trying to use the library for get the encoded value for use with a barcode font type.

If I get the encoded value (for example for Code128):
new Code128(value).getEncodedValue()

Im getting a String with a binary content. For example I have this data:
value - expected - encodedValue
0 - Ì01Î - 1101000010010011101100100111011001100011101011
93 -Í}ÃÎ - 1101001110010100011110101111010001100011101011
95 - ÍÃÅÎ - 1101001110010111101000111101010001100011101011
400000 - ÍHÂÂJÎ - 11010011100110001010001101100110011011001100101101110001100011101011

Any way to convert this binary output to a string for use with a barcode font type?

when the barcode is embedded on some background, the scanner gun will need some "peace space" (white border) in order to recognize the barcode regardless of the background. this should be an option to have.
could look like

b.setMargin(10)

or even

b.setMargin(10,10,10,15)
