Parameters

BITMAPHANDLE * pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap to be searched.

L_RECT Inrc

Structure that represents the area to be searched.

L_RECT * Outrc

Pointer to a structure representing the location of the MRZ zone.

Returns

Value Meaning
SUCCESS The function was successful.
< 1 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Example

This example loads a bitmap and applies the MRZ detector.

L_INT MRZDetectionExample(L_VOID) 
{ 
    L_INT nRet; 
    BITMAPHANDLE LeadBitmap;   /* Bitmap handle to hold the loaded image. */ 
    /* Load the bitmap, keeping the bits per pixel of the file the same */ 
    nRet = L_LoadBitmap (MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("MRZ_SAMPLE.jpg")), &LeadBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL); 
    if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
        return nRet ; 
 
    // set the searching area 
    RECT inRect ; 
    inRect.left   = 0 ; 
    inRect.top    = 0 ; 
    inRect.right  = LeadBitmap.Width-1 ; 
    inRect.bottom = LeadBitmap.Height-1 ; 
 
    // detect the MRZ zone 
    L_RECT MRZZone ; 
    nRet = L_MRZDetection(&LeadBitmap, inRect, &MRZZone); 
    if(nRet != SUCCESS) 
        return nRet ; 
 
    //free the bitmap 
    if(LeadBitmap.Flags.Allocated) 
        L_FreeBitmap(&LeadBitmap); 
 
    return nRet ; 
}
