No support for Raw Bytes from scan #85

Closed djak250 closed 7 years ago

djak250 commented 8 years ago

Some barcode implementations include a FNC1 character, specifically CODE_128's. These are necessary to detect in the event that a barcode contains two variable length values encoded to denote the end of one section, and the beginning of the next identifier.

I attempted to get the bytes from the rawData from a barcode, but the FNC1 character byte is missing. I've confirmed that the barcode does indeed contain one with zxing.

I've confirmed that our Code128 implementation doesn't handle FNC characters at all. We'll look into returning control codes in the rawValue for future releases.

Awesome. Thanks for giving me an update. We use them often in our mobile solution, and I'd love to read it in quickly in-app instead of outsourcing the functionality to zxing using Barcode Scanner.

The latest version of our Barcode API (part of Google Play Services 10.0) now returns FNC1 characters in Code128 results.
