public DataMatrixHighLevelEncoder()

Method Details

getBytesForMessage

public static byte[] getBytesForMessage(String msg)

Converts the message to a byte array using the default encoding (cp437) as defined by the specification

Parameters:

msg - the message

Returns:

the byte array of the message

encodeHighLevel

public static String encodeHighLevel(String msg)
                              throws IOException

Performs message encoding of a DataMatrix message using the algorithm described in annex P of ISO/IEC 16022:2000(E).

Parameters:

msg - the message

Returns:

the encoded message (the char values range from 0 to 255)

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs while fetching external data

encodeHighLevel

public static String encodeHighLevel(String msg,
 SymbolShapeHint shape,
 Dimension minSize,
 Dimension maxSize)
                              throws IOException

Performs message encoding of a DataMatrix message using the algorithm described in annex P of ISO/IEC 16022:2000(E).

Parameters:

msg - the message

shape - requested shape. May be SymbolShapeHint.FORCE_NONE, SymbolShapeHint.FORCE_SQUARE or SymbolShapeHint.FORCE_RECTANGLE.

minSize - the minimum symbol size constraint or null for no constraint

maxSize - the maximum symbol size constraint or null for no constraint

Returns:

the encoded message (the char values range from 0 to 255)

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs while fetching external data

determineConsecutiveDigitCount

public static int determineConsecutiveDigitCount(String msg,
 int startpos)

Determines the number of consecutive characters that are encodable using numeric compaction.

Parameters:

msg - the message

startpos - the start position within the message

Returns:

the requested character count
