Well you can try google's zxing library!! It's a library for barcode scanning!! I used that and it worked like a charm!!!

From the rumor mill, this capability is integrated into OS 6.0.

Hi morpheusghost and peter thanks for your response.

Yes,now i'm using google's zxing but it throws error related package not found (javax.microedition.amms.control.camera)

i'm using 4.5 JDE for developing..And i have searched that package but i didnt get that package....

Google's zxing code working for u? which version u have developed?

Thanks,

I'm working with the 1.4 version

Actually for your info all u have to do is to take the rim's and core's src folders and insert the packages to yous src folder of your project. I think this could help you!!

Thanks,

I'm using Eclipse plugin for Blackberry. Actually the code is in the library that you 've downloaded.

But lets take it from the begining.

1. Download Blackberry plugin for Eclipse

2. Download zxing library 1.4 from http://code.google.com/p/zxing/downloads/list

3. Take the src files from rim's and core's folders from the zxing library after you unzip it and insert them into the src folder of your Blackberry project.

Run the simulator and scan a barcode image!!

That's it. If u have any question please ask!!!
