New features request for version 5.3 of VintaSoftBarcode.NET

I would like the ability to "export" the ReaderSettings and "import" the ReaderSettings on a BarcodeReader object. Maybe an XML fragment that could contain the version compatiblity and current settings.

Certainly. I would like to store settings for barcode reading profiles. The main purpose is to have multiple profiles for a single session and retain them between executions of the application. We have in the past with our own settings type of object made the persistable with XML. By using a versioning scheme it was also backwards compatible. Using the XML generated by the serializer we could store the settings in our configuration files. This would make our code a little easier for settings maintenance and provide a nice compatibility safety net for the settings themselves.

I you have a way to do that already, I apologize. I just couldn't find it. I noticed that the ToString method lists the non-defaulted settings. I just could not see how to apply them without parsing for each setting individually.

Thanks.

Thanks for clear explanation.

We'll release XML serialization for barcode reader/writer settings in coming version 6.0.
We'll also take care about version compatibility concerning this matter further.

Hi,

I recently purchased V6.0 and I am trying to Serialize all settings for the Barcode Writer. I have been unsuccessful at locating the interface, it must be something my eyes refuse to see. Could you please provide a simple example of using the iBarcodeInfo interface to save all Barcode Writer settings to a string.

Thanks...

We've implemented XML serialization for barcode reader settings at this time.

The same will be available for barcode writer in comming next version 6.1.
