How to include ZXingWidget in a easy and clean way:
|
|
|
|
|
====================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Locate the "ZXingWidget.xcodeproj" file under "`zxing/iphone/ZXingWidget/`". Drag ZXingWidget.xcodeproj and
|
|
|
|
|
drop it onto the root of your Xcode project's "Groups and Files" sidebar. A dialog will
|
|
|
|
|
appear -- make sure "Copy items" is unchecked and "Reference Type" is "Relative to Project"
|
|
|
|
|
before clicking "Add".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Now you need to link the ZXingWidget static library to your project. Click the "ZXingWidget.xcodeproj"
|
|
|
|
|
item that has just been added to the sidebar. Under the "Details" table, you will see a single
|
|
|
|
|
item: ZXingWidget.a. Check the checkbox on the far right of ZXingWidget.a.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Now you need to add ZXingWidget as a dependency of your project, so Xcode compiles it whenever
|
|
|
|
|
you compile your project. Expand the "Targets" section of the sidebar and double-click your
|
|
|
|
|
application's target. Under the "General" tab you will see a "Direct Dependencies" section.
|
|
|
|
|
Click the "+" button, select "ZXingWidget", and click "Add Target"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Finally, we need to tell your project where to find the ZXingWidget headers. Open your
|
|
|
|
|
"Project Settings" and go to the "Build" tab. Look for "Header Search Paths" and double-click
|
|
|
|
|
it. Add the relative path from your project's directory to the
|
|
|
|
|
"zxing/iphone/ZXingWidget/Classes" directory. Make sure you click the checkbox "relative path" !
|
|
|
|

|
|
5. Ultimately you need to make a tweak so that ZXing actually decodes barcode. In target section, double
|
|
|
|
|
click on your project target, and go to the build tab. Look for the "Exported Symbols Files" and
|
|
|
|
|
double-click on it. Att the relative path to the exportList files in "/zxing/iphone/ZXingWidget/exportList".
|
|
|
|
|
This will tell the linket to actually link with some key classes so that this code registers the necessary
|
|
|
|
|
decoders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. You're ready to go. Just #import <ZXingWidgetController.h> from anywhere and it should work !
