Method Detail

decode

public DecoderResult decode(boolean[][] image)
                     throws ChecksumException,
                            FormatException

Throws:

ChecksumException

FormatException

decode

public DecoderResult decode(boolean[][] image,
                            Map<DecodeHintType,?> hints)
                     throws ChecksumException,
                            FormatException

Convenience method that can decode a QR Code represented as a 2D array of booleans. "true" is taken to mean a black module.

Parameters:

image - booleans representing white/black QR Code modules

hints - decoding hints that should be used to influence decoding

Returns:

text and bytes encoded within the QR Code

Throws:

FormatException - if the QR Code cannot be decoded

ChecksumException - if error correction fails

decode

public DecoderResult decode(BitMatrix bits)
                     throws ChecksumException,
                            FormatException

Throws:

ChecksumException

FormatException

decode

public DecoderResult decode(BitMatrix bits,
                            Map<DecodeHintType,?> hints)
                     throws FormatException,
                            ChecksumException

Decodes a QR Code represented as a BitMatrix. A 1 or "true" is taken to mean a black module.

Parameters:

bits - booleans representing white/black QR Code modules

hints - decoding hints that should be used to influence decoding

Returns:

text and bytes encoded within the QR Code

Throws:

FormatException - if the QR Code cannot be decoded

ChecksumException - if error correction fails
