Ocrad does not force you to specify a filename. It can act as a filter.
Ok, so you can pipe a file in it then...
I thought maybe I had missed something, so here would be my twofold
question:
1) Is there a wait to use libjocr to process an image directly (e.g.
an unsigned char*)
I don't know. Libjocr is not part of Ocrad.
Oh sorry, i meant ocrad. Its just I posted a similar mail on the jocr
mailing list and obviously forgot to replace part of it ;)
2) If not: what would you suggest me to do? I'd be ready to
contribute some code but a bit of guidance would help a lot.
Try to execute ocrad through the `popen' function.
I actually started working on a fix using mkfifo().
Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Antonio.
