Java Barcode QR-Code Generator

Create Barcode QR-Code in Java Class, Servlet, Jasper Reports, iReport & BIRT

QR Code is a matrix code (or two-dimensional bar code) created by Japanese corporation Denso-Wave in 1994. The "QR" is derived from "Quick Response", as the creator intended the code to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed.

Java QR-Code prints:

• numeric data (digits 0 - 9);
• alphanumeric data (digits 0 - 9; upper case letters A -Z; nine other characters: space, $ % * + - . / : );
• byte data (default: ISO/IEC 8859-1);
• Kanji characters.

1. How to generate QR-Code barcodes in JSP & HTML pages?

1. Copy "barcoding" folder contents to your Java Servlet container like Tomcat or JBoss's applications folder
2. Restart your Java Servlet container
3. Open your web browser like IE, Firefox, and navigate to http://localhost:8080/barcoding/qrcode?DATA=0123456789
4. To generate QRCode barcode images in JSP or HTML pages, insert the following html img tag code:
   <img src="http://localhost:8080/barcoding/qrcode?DATA=0123456789" border=0 />

2. How to create QR-Code barcodes in Java Servlet?

        try {
            QRCode barcode = new QRCode();
            barcode.setCode("Java QR Code Generation");

            response.setContentType("image/jpeg");
            response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
            response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
            response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
            ServletOutputStream servletoutputstream = response.getOutputStream();

            barcode.drawOnStream(servletoutputstream);

        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new ServletException(e);
        }        

3. How to generate QR-Code barcodes in Java Class?

        QRCode barcode = new QRCode();
        barcode.setCode("Create QR-Code in Java Class");
        barcode.drawImage2File("qrcode.gif");

4. How to draw QR-Code barcodes to image files?

        QRCode barcode = new QRCode();
        barcode.setCode("Create & encode QRCode images in Java");
        barcode.drawImage2File("qrcode.gif");

5. How to draw & print QR-Code barcodes to Java image objects or stream objects?

        QRCode barcode = new QRCode();
        barcode.setCode("How to draw & print QR-Code barcodes to Java image objects or stream objects?");
        barcode.drawOnGraphics("Graphics2D object");
        
        barcode.drawOnStream("OutputStream object");
