The BARCODEWRITEDM structure contains information used to write ECC 200 Data Matrix symbols.

Members

uStructSize

Size of the BARCODEWRITEDM structure, in bytes, for versioning. Use the sizeof() operator to calculate the value.

ulFlags

Flags used to configure the engine. You can combine values when appropriate, by using a bitwise OR ( | ). Possible values are:

Value Meaning
BARCODE_JUSTIFY_RIGHT [0x1000] Justify the Data Matrix symbol to the right side of the bitmap.
BARCODE_JUSTIFY_H_CENTER [0x2000] Justify the Data Matrix symbol in the horizontal center of the bitmap.
BARCODE_JUSTIFY_BOTTOM [0x4000] Justify the Data Matrix symbol to the bottom side of the bitmap.
BARCODE_JUSTIFY_V_CENTER [0x8000] Justify the Data Matrix symbol in the vertical center of the bitmap.

cGroupNumber

Specifies a group of Data Matrix symbols. The maximum number of symbols in a group is 16. Use this member to specify the order of each barcode in a group so that you can put the barcodes back in the correct order after they have been split up..

cGroupTotal

Specifies the total number of Data Matrix symbols in the group specified by the cGroupNumber member. The maximum number of symbols in a group is 16.

cFileIDLo

Specifies the low byte of the file ID number. The number must range from 1 to 254. Use this as an ID for the group since an image can have multiple groups.

cFileIDHi

File ID high byte. Specifies the high byte of the file ID number. The number must range from 1 to 254. Use this as an ID for the group since an image can have multiple groups.

nXModule

The size of the written Data Matrix barcode, specified in 0.001 inch. If the value is too small, a minimum of 5 pixels will be used.

Comments

pBARCODEWRITEDM is a pointer to an BARCODEWRITEDM structure. Where the function parameter type is pBARCODEWRITEDM, you can declare a BARCODEWRITEDM variable, update the structure's fields, and pass the variable's address in the parameter. Declaring a pBARCODEWRITEDM variable is necessary only if your program requires a pointer.

This structure is used by the LBarCode::Write functions.

Use the cGroupNumber, CGroupTotal, CFileIDLo, cFileIDHi members whenever it is necessary to split up the information that needs to be encoded into different barcodes.

The following table contains information for writing ECC 200 Data Matrix barcodes:
