Class QRCodeWriter
A class allowing for advanced control on the generation of QR type barcodes.
QRCodeWriter gives the developer access to set QR code error correction levels, and to add logo images to QR codes.
Generated Barcodes can be exported as Images, Bitmaps, Files and Streams.

Syntax
public static class QRCodeWriterMethods
CreateQrCode(Byte[], Int32, QRCodeWriter.QrErrorCorrectionLevel, Int32)
Renders a QR code.
Overload methods and methods of the created GeneratedBarcode object allow for barcode sizes and colors to be customized. Logos & Branding may also be added using the CreateQrCodeWithLogo method.
Declaration
public static GeneratedBarcode CreateQrCode(byte[] BinaryData, int Size = 500, QRCodeWriter.QrErrorCorrectionLevel ErrorCorrection = QRCodeWriter.QrErrorCorrectionLevel.Highest, int QrVersion = 0)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| System.Byte[] | BinaryData | The value of the QR code as a byte array. |
| System.Int32 | Size | The width and height of the QR code in pixels. |
| QRCodeWriter.QrErrorCorrectionLevel | ErrorCorrection | The error correction level of the QR code. |
| System.Int32 | QrVersion | The symbol version of the QR Code from 1-40. The default value 0 will automatticaly assign an appropriate QrVersion for your data (highly reccomended). Higher QrVersion numbers generate a more complex graphic and can encode more data. Lower QrVersion numbers generate simpler QR codes that may be more readable at a distance. If you decide to set a very low QrVersion, you may experience an IronBarCodeEncodingException if the size of data you are encoding exceeds the limits of that symbol version.
