Code? No one is going to feed you the code that easily, Search, Try and Develop.

Anyways, here's well known library that can help you to do it:

From version 6.0 onwards import the sample demo "BarcodeScanDemo" from the blackberry samples and do your own QR-CODE Scan and Image generation etc. 

The Blackberry provides how to scan QR-CODE only; You should have to get the idea of that sample applcation then you can create your own Barcode Demo;

We can create 

1. We can Decode Any type of Barcode Scanning Application(Under Blackberry provided Formats)

2. Generate the QR-Code Image and show the image(nothing but we store in "bitmap");

3. We can Decode Any type of Barcode Images(What Blackberry Provide Formats) without Scanning.

Generating and scanning is very easy when you run the sample demo in the device not on simulator.

If you want to do in 5.0 ,

1. Download the ZXing-1.7.zip or ZXing-2.0.zip  from this below linkBetter to take 1.7 older one

ZXing for Blackberry Barcode Application;

2.  Extract the Zip file and take the "com" forlder in the below path from extraced file

ZXing-1.7\zxing\core\src\

and paste it into your your Application's src folder;

3. Then Extract UsingBarcodeLib file and take the org folder and put it into your src folder from the following path:

"\ZXing-1.7\UsingBarcodeLib\src" 

4. And take the sample BarcodeScanDemo.java only from 6.0 add to your own package; and try to run it;

Thank you ALI SHAIK.

I will try this code. Is it possible to scan any format of barcode with out selecting the barcode format(like code 128,qr code etc)

He provide only for QRCODE; 

you can add all the formats: Replace here:

 Hashtable hints = new Hashtable();
 Vector formats  = new Vector(1);
 formats.addElement(BarcodeFormat.QR_CODE);
 hints.put(DecodeHintType.POSSIBLE_FORMATS, formats);

 as:

Hashtable hashtable=new Hashtable();		
Vector formats=new Vector(10);
formats.addElement(BarcodeFormat.QR_CODE);
formats.addElement(BarcodeFormat.PDF_417);
formats.addElement(BarcodeFormat.CODE_128);
formats.addElement(BarcodeFormat.CODE_39);
formats.addElement(BarcodeFormat.DATA_MATRIX);
hashtable.put(DecodeHintType.POSSIBLE_FORMATS, formats);

 like this you can add all the Blackberry barcode formats provided by blackberry; and run the application;

Hi,

Just an Info: 

while generation of Barcode  other than QR, the size of the data must match the requirements.

BarcodeFormat format = BarcodeFormat.EAN_13 // gives exception Requested contents should be 11 or 12 digits long, but got 4: -1

the content(data) must be 11 or 12 digits
