Character attributes

CharConfidence

int, read-only

Stores the value of recognition confidence of the character. This is the confidence of the main (selected) recognition variant. It represents an estimate of this variant’s accuracy in comparison to other recognition variants. However, this number is not guaranteed to be positive. It has only a relative meaning.

IsBinaryData

VARIANT_BOOL, read-only

Specifies whether the character represents binary data.

IsBinaryZero

VARIANT_BOOL, read-only

Specifies whether the character is the binary zero.

This property is only used, if the IBarcodeParams::ContainsBinaryData property was FALSE during recognition. In this case, the recognized binary data is translated to the Unicode string using the code page specified in the IBarcodeParams::CodePage property. But the binary zero cannot be translated correctly in this way, therefore the Character property for such symbol contains the “unrecognized character” symbol (”^”).

IsStartStopSymbol

VARIANT_BOOL, read-only

Specifies whether the character is the barcode start/stop symbol. The property makes sense for barcodes of the Code 39 type (the start/stop symbol is the asterisk ”*”) and Codabar type (the start/stop symbols are Latin letters “A”, “B”, “C”, “D”).
