• Can't recognize QR codes from JPG images
• Unable to recognize Code128 barcode from a png file
• Each getOnlyBarCodeImage call leave a temp file open
• A big allocated memory for the JVM is required to recognize a bar code
• Unable to recognize Pdf417 bar code from a JPG image
• Public API and Backwards Incompatible Changes:
• Method com.aspose.barcode.BarCodeBuilder.insertWatermark removed
• This is internal method and has never meant to be public. It is removed now.
• com.aspose.barcode.BarCodeBuilder.setCodeTextEncodingInternal(com.aspose.barcode.internal.t.p) removed
• This is internal method and has never meant to be public. It is removed now.
• com.aspose.barcode.BarCodeBuilder.setCodeTextEncodingInternal(com.aspose.barcode.internal.t.p) removed
• This is internal method and has never meant to be public. It is removed now
• com.aspose.barcode.BarCodeBuilder.saveAsEmf(java.io.OutputStream) and saveAsEmf(java.lang.String) removed
• The functionality was not implemented in earlier barcode versions and the both methods have been removed now since earlier methods have thrown NotImplementedException.
• Removed classes com.aspose.barcode.Code128CodeBuilder and com.aspose.barcode.Code128CodeSet
• Now all codesets set and switched automatically according to code 128 specification. No need in code 128 builder to be public anymore. Additionally all references to this class have been removed too:
• Method com.aspose.barcode.IBarCodeControl.getCode128CodeSet()
• Method com.aspose.barcode.IBarCodeControl.setCode128CodeSet(Code128CodeSet)
• Method com.aspose.barcode.BarCodeBuilder.getCode128CodeSet()
• Method com.aspose.barcode.BarCodeBuilder.setCode128CodeSet(int)
• Removed Class com.aspose.barcoderecognition.imaging.BinarizedBitmap
• This is a very obsolete class which does not seem to be useful anymore. Since we have refactored the BarCode engine there is no need to use it directly and this class has been removed from public API. Additionally all the methods expecting BinarizedBitmap are removed from public API. The following methods have been removed:
• Method com.aspose.barcoderecognition.BarCodeReader.#ctor(com.aspose.barcoderecognition.imaging.BinarizedBitmap)
• Method com.aspose.barcoderecognition.BarCodeReader.#ctor(com.aspose.barcoderecognition.imaging.BinarizedBitmap,long)
• Removed Field com.aspose.barcoderecognition.RecognitionHints.ImageBinarization.HLS
• We have greatly refactored the BarCode engine and now we have found that HLS filters work the same way as GrayNormalization filter do. Previously HLS filter has been used for binarization but currently we use some other binarization algorithms. The following code:
• BarCodeReader reader = new BarCodeReader(image, BarCodeReadType.Code39Standard);
• reader.setImageBinarizationHints(RecognitionHints.ImageBinarization.HLS);
• May be safely refactored to:
• BarCodeReader reader = new BarCodeReader(image, BarCodeReadType.Code39Standard);
• With the new BarCode engine.
