This time the review will be short enough. The project
Barcode4J is an application written in Java that allows you to generate different types of bar codes (1D - 9 different standards, and 2D - two standards), display them in various formats - SVG, EPS, BMP or draw via the Java2D interface. A developer can easily add his own barcode presentation formats, or embed a generator directly into his application, for example, using the Apache infrastructure (meaning the
Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) processor), and also deploy it as a web application using tomcat server.
Now there is the second version of the project, so far in the status of alpha release (alpha 2), but the project has a long history of development and stable development cycles, so it is strongly recommended for use in solutions of any level.
PS Initially, the material was published
in my blog , but because of its Java-specific nature, the public was not interested in it, I think it will be interesting here, because the barcode problem often arises in various business applications, which are mostly in Java. Are there similar libraries for other languages?
