This article shows 2 simple visual c++ code snippets that use either the standard windows dll or the com object for the toolkit.

Standard Windows DLL

hBarcode = mtCreateBarcodeInstance() ;

//Set properties

mtSetReadCode128 (hBarcode, 1) ;

//Read barcodes
int nBarCodes = mtScanBarCode(hBarcode, m_ImageFile) ;

//Get results
for (int i = 1; i <= nBarCodes; i++)
CString strBarCode = mtGetBarString(hBarcode, i) ;

mtDestroyBarcodeInstance(hBarcode) ;

ActiveX/OCX Interface

//Set properties
m_barcode.SetReadCode128 (1) ;

//Read barcodes
int nBarCodes = m_barcode.ScanBarCode(m_ImageFile) ;

//Get results
for (int i = 1; i <= nBarCodes; i++)
CString strBarCode = m_barcode.GetBarString(i) ;
