zxing

I've been looking all over internet how to include zxing library to my project, and I found this tutorial: http://blog.dihaw.com/integrating-zxing-in-your-android-app-as-standalone-scanner/ But when I reach the point that you need to check for BeepManager to add the R import I get all kinds of errors in my project (Even on the MainActivity) that it couldn't find R.

Thanking in advance I think that "copying" Barcode Scanner and include it in your app might be overloading your projects. You should certainly use the Intent from the Scanner: From here: http:/

I am developing an app on Android Studio to get the expiry date of items upon scanning the barcode.

I also want to get product information such as the description, manufacturer and expiry date using the scanned barcode data. How can I do that? There are two processes involved in obtaining the information represented by a GS1-type barcode that stores data in GS1 Application Identifier Standard Format. Extraction of the data
