Reading bar code from a tif image with C++

[Jan Harm Rienstra]

I'm busy with a school project.



I want to scan documents with a scanner. To separate the docs I want to use
a paper with by example a bar code. The output of the scanner are
(multi-page) tiff files.

The tool I want to write is to recognize the different docs (by using bar
codes) in the tiff files.



I've already seen the libtiff library. I probable can use this, but on win32
with Borland 6 I've got some compile and linker errors. Seems this familiar?



I've been search for libraries witch can work with bar codes.

Has anybody a suggestion?



Thanks in advance.

Since you've asked nothing about the C++ language itself,
none of what you ask about is topical for comp.lang.c++

LibTIFF info:

http://www.libtiff.org/

(also contains link for subscribing to support
mailing list, as well as archives of that list)

Borland compiler info:

https://www.borland.com

Purpose of comp.lang.c++:

(also contains links to Borland-specific newsgroups)


Please read the entire document at that last link
before posting here again. (It's not very long).

Thank you.

Good luck!
