com.blackberry.community.barcodescanner example on github doesn't seem to work with webworks 2.2 UI

[rhildred]

I teach at Conestoga College. Last year around this time, I had a student successfully use this plugin. This year, when I try to use the sample from the www directory:

app.barcodeScanner = window.plugins.barcodeScanner app.barcodeScanner.startRead(app.codeFound, app.errorFound)

I get an exception: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'window.plugins.barcodeScanner')

I am doing a multiplatform project with my class, using com.phonegap.plugins.barcodescanner for ios, wp8, android. I think that I need to use com.blackberry.community.barcodescanner for BB10, which we really want to get working as the customer has a bb10.

How did you add the plugin to your application?

Hi Tim:

I added the plugin to my app with the plugins portion (left column) of the Webworks 2.2 UI. This was what I did last year too, so it never occurred to me to check the folder to see if it was actually added. I have students this afternoon, so I could check later tonight.

thanks

Rich

I created a new test project using the GUI, deleted the www folder, copied in the files from the sample, and added the plugin using the id "com.blackberry.community.barcodescanner". When I built and tested, it ran successfully.

Hi Tim,

Rich and I tried your code and it does work. Thanks for guiding us in the right direction.

That's great, glad it's working for you.

Hi Again: Your code worked for us, and now our code works too. We had phonegap.js instead of cordova.js in our index.html. thanks again Rich and Praneet
