  • Enum Constant Details

    • ERROR_CORRECTION

      public static final EncodeHintType ERROR_CORRECTION
      Specifies what degree of error correction to use, for example in QR Codes. Type depends on the encoder. For example for QR codes it's type ErrorCorrectionLevel. For Aztec it is of type Integer, representing the minimal percentage of error correction words. For PDF417 it is of type Integer, valid values being 0 to 8. In all cases, it can also be a String representation of the desired value as well. Note: an Aztec symbol should have a minimum of 25% EC words.

    • CHARACTER_SET

      public static final EncodeHintType CHARACTER_SET
      Specifies what character encoding to use where applicable (type String)

    • DATA_MATRIX_SHAPE

      public static final EncodeHintType DATA_MATRIX_SHAPE
      Specifies the matrix shape for Data Matrix (type com.google.zxing.datamatrix.encoder.SymbolShapeHint)

    • MIN_SIZE

      @Deprecated public static final EncodeHintType MIN_SIZE
      Deprecated.
      use width/height params in com.google.zxing.datamatrix.DataMatrixWriter#encode(String, BarcodeFormat, int, int)
      Specifies a minimum barcode size (type Dimension). Only applicable to Data Matrix now.

    • MAX_SIZE

      @Deprecated public static final EncodeHintType MAX_SIZE
      Deprecated.
      without replacement
      Specifies a maximum barcode size (type Dimension). Only applicable to Data Matrix now.

    • MARGIN

      public static final EncodeHintType MARGIN
      Specifies margin, in pixels, to use when generating the barcode. The meaning can vary by format; for example it controls margin before and after the barcode horizontally for most 1D formats. (Type Integer, or String representation of the integer value).

    • PDF417_COMPACT

      public static final EncodeHintType PDF417_COMPACT
      Specifies whether to use compact mode for PDF417 (type Boolean, or "true" or "false" String value).

    • PDF417_COMPACTION

      public static final EncodeHintType PDF417_COMPACTION
      Specifies what compaction mode to use for PDF417 (type com.google.zxing.pdf417.encoder.Compaction Compaction or String value of one of its enum values).

    • PDF417_DIMENSIONS

      public static final EncodeHintType PDF417_DIMENSIONS
      Specifies the minimum and maximum number of rows and columns for PDF417 (type com.google.zxing.pdf417.encoder.Dimensions Dimensions).

    • AZTEC_LAYERS

      public static final EncodeHintType AZTEC_LAYERS
      Specifies the required number of layers for an Aztec code. A negative number (-1, -2, -3, -4) specifies a compact Aztec code. 0 indicates to use the minimum number of layers (the default). A positive number (1, 2, .. 32) specifies a normal (non-compact) Aztec code. (Type Integer, or String representation of the integer value).

    • QR_VERSION

      public static final EncodeHintType QR_VERSION
      Specifies the exact version of QR code to be encoded. (Type Integer, or String representation of the integer value).

    • QR_MASK_PATTERN

      public static final EncodeHintType QR_MASK_PATTERN
      Specifies the QR code mask pattern to be used. Allowed values are 0..QRCode.NUM_MASK_PATTERNS-1. By default the code will automatically select the optimal mask pattern. * (Type Integer, or String representation of the integer value).

    • GS1_FORMAT

      public static final EncodeHintType GS1_FORMAT
      Specifies whether the data should be encoded to the GS1 standard (type Boolean, or "true" or "false" String value).

  • Method Details

    • values

      public static EncodeHintType[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    • valueOf

      public static EncodeHintType valueOf​(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null
