Constructor Detail

AbstractFourStateLogicImpl

public AbstractFourStateLogicImpl(ChecksumMode mode)

Main constructor

Parameters:

mode - checksum mode

Method Detail

getChecksumMode

public ChecksumMode getChecksumMode()

Returns the currently active checksum mode.

Returns:

the checksum mode

calcChecksum

public abstract char calcChecksum(String msg)

Calculates the checksum for a message to be encoded as an one of the foru-state barcode symbologies.

Parameters:

msg - message to calculate the check digit for

Returns:

char the check digit

validateChecksum

public boolean validateChecksum(String msg)

Verifies the checksum for a message.

Parameters:

msg - message (check digit included)

Returns:

boolean True, if the checksum is correct

isIgnoredChar

public static boolean isIgnoredChar(char c)

Checks if a character is an ignored character (such as a '-' (dash)).

Parameters:

c - character to check

Returns:

True if the character is ignored

normalizeMessage

protected abstract String normalizeMessage(String msg)

Turns the given message into a normalize representation. Some subclasses may update/add parentheses around the message and/or handle the checksum as necessary.

Parameters:

msg - the message

Returns:

the normalized message to be encoded

encodeHighLevel

protected abstract String[] encodeHighLevel(String msg)

Does the high-level encoding of the message into codewords.

Parameters:

msg - the message

Returns:

an array of Strings with codewords

encodeCodeword

protected void encodeCodeword(ClassicBarcodeLogicHandler logic,
                              char c,
                              String codeword)

Encodes a single character.

Parameters:

logic - the logic handler to receive generated events

c - the character to encode

codeword - the codeword belonging to the character

generateBarcodeLogic

public void generateBarcodeLogic(ClassicBarcodeLogicHandler logic,
                                 String msg)

Generates the barcode logic

Parameters:

logic - the logic handler to receive generated events

msg - the message to encode
