I am using Zxing-android-embedded(https://github.com/journeyapps/zxing-android-embedded) to scan QR codes. I have imported the library from github . When the app starts , the camera is scanning the code repeatedly as long as the camera is placed on a barcode.I want to stop the scanning(but not the camera preview) once the barcode is detected and show a dialog box with "Confirm" button, "Cancel" button, and a input box. When user press the "Confirm" or "Cancel" button it should start scanning again.
I have called barcodeView.pause();
at the beginning of the decode() method which pauses the camera preview. Also, added barcodeView.resume();
inside onClick method of "dialogConfirmClick" and "dialogCancelClick". But barcodeView.pause();
method pauses scanning as well as the camera preview.
Here is my class-
public class MyScanActivity extends Activity {
private static final String TAG = MyScanActivity.class.getSimpleName();
private CompoundBarcodeView barcodeView;
private BeepManager beepManager;
private DialogInterface.OnClickListener dialogCanselClick;
private AlertDialog dialog;
private BarcodeCallback callback = new BarcodeCallback() {
@Override
public void barcodeResult(BarcodeResult result) {
if (result.getText() != null) {
handleDecode(result);
}
}
@Override
public void possibleResultPoints(List<ResultPoint> resultPoints) {
}
};
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Window window = getWindow();
window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);
setContentView(R.layout.continuous_scan);
barcodeView = (CompoundBarcodeView) findViewById(R.id.barcode_scanner);
barcodeView.decodeContinuous(callback);
beepManager = new BeepManager(this);
dialogCancelClick = new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
barcodeView.resume();//Resume scanning
dialog.dismiss();
}
};
}
public void handleDecode(BarcodeResult rawResult) {
barcodeView.pause();//Pause preview
String result = rawResult.getText();
beepManager.playBeepSoundAndVibrate();
DialogInterface.OnClickListener dialogOkClick = new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { // OK
// button
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
if (writeNote) {
EditText txtNote = (EditText) promptsView.findViewById(R.id.txt_dialog_note);
//code to merge value of txtNote with result
}
dialog.dismiss();
barcodeView.resume();//Resume scanning after pressing confirm button
Toast.makeText(MyScanActivity.this, R.string.dialog_save_qr_alert, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
};
AlertDialog dialog = DialogHelper.CreateDialog(this, DialogHelper.SAVE_QR_CODE, result, dialogOkClick, dialogCancelClick, promptsView);
dialog.show();
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
barcodeView.resume();
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
barcodeView.pause();
}
public void pause(View view) {
barcodeView.pause();
}
public void resume(View view) {
barcodeView.resume();
}
public void triggerScan(View view) {
barcodeView.decodeSingle(callback);
}
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
return barcodeView.onKeyDown(keyCode, event) || super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
}
