Install-Package BarCode
In this tutorial, we delve into reading multiple barcodes at once using the Iron Barcode library in C#. We start by setting up a project in Visual Studio and ensuring the Iron Barcode library is downloaded through the NuGet package manager. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of importing the library at the top of the code using the 'using' keyword. The core of the process involves setting the 'AcceptMultipleBarcodes' property to true and focusing on one-dimensional barcodes like code 128. With a straightforward approach, the 'BarcodeReader.Read' method is employed to read barcodes from images, passing the image and options as arguments. This method simplifies a complex task into a single line of code. The results are processed using a 'for' loop to print each barcode's information, showcasing the effectiveness of Iron Barcode in displaying multiple barcodes' data. This process is especially beneficial for applications such as automating data entry and tracking products. The tutorial encourages further exploration of Iron Barcode for additional functionalities and invites viewers to subscribe for more tutorials. For those eager to start, a link to a free trial of Iron Barcode is provided, offering a firsthand experience of its capabilities.
