I don't know why this would occur, it should only ever get to the
"getSingleBook" call
if it already has book data, but I will check into it.

Use has tried different books, same issue. Does not seem to be related to a
particular
title/ISBN.

I added some logic so that the exception (and subsequent force close) should
not
happen, but I am still unsure why there would be no data at that point, so even
though
won't force close, probably still won't find the book (will show the "whoops
that scan
did not work" message).
I am going to release a new version with this fix in it, and a few other
tweaks, later
today.

Another user reported this too in the comments. Need to get this ironed out.

Hi Charlie,
I installed the update but same issue, I did not get a chance yet to grab the
logs
from it.
I did not uninstall then install the update, would that matter?

Nope, you shouldn't have to uninstall, just update should be fine. If you get
a
chance please send the log. Looks like I still don't understand exactly
where/why this
is happening.
One idea, what version of BarCode Scanner app do you have? I don't know why it
would
matter, but just curious.
thanks again for your help

I have a botany book that is causing force close on version 1.0.4 (not yet
released)
when scanned "Botany for Gardeners" 0-88192-655-8

Aha! My Botany book has 2 codes on the back, on the lower left of the cover is
a "UPC"
code that scans as a "product" and results in ISBN 00881926558, and the right
is
another code, labeled "EAN" that scans as 0881926558. I just have to figure out
how to
distinguish no matter which code is scanned (many books probably don't have
both, just
have the UPC).
Working on it . . .

I now have this fixed so that there is no longer a force close. I am also
parsing
anything that resembles an ISBN into a valid ISBN, but still, some scans (10%
or so
in my experience with my own bookshelf and a few hundred scans) return a
PRODUCT CODE
and not an ISBN (even if the code written on the book says "ISBN - X" on the
top of
it, it's the bottom number, which is not the same as that, that gets returned).
I
can't figure out a way, yet, to go from product code to ISBN. I tried a bunch
of
stuff.
Right now I am going to try to improve the feedback to the user, and then will
close
this and make a new release. I don't know if I will be able to go from product
code
to ISBN, there may just simply be some books that won't scan as recognizable
books
(mostly older titles).

I have verified the FC after scanning is fixed, thanks Charlie.
Tested 5 or 6 few moments ago with no issues :)

Thank *you* David. I didn't send you the latest release yet, but I am gonna
put it in
the market momentarily anyway.
And, I'm gonna get you some Google and Android stuff for helping me out ;). I
get
schwag from Google every once in a while (Android toys, shirts, pens,
stickers), I'll
see to it that some is saved for you. Your help has been awesome, I wouldn't
have
known where the problems were without it.

well thats very nice of you, thanks :)
I will be scanning a bunch today as soon as I get going, one thing I noticed
when
scanning there seems to be no way to manually take a photo of the cover like
when
manually adding. some stuff has no cover image on web search.
