[android-developers] scanning with the camera

2010-11-12 Thread ping
Hello,
I have a question concerning threads, handlers, loopers, etc. in
android:
In my application i have to take pictures from the camera preview (not
pictures from the camera but rather just a preview frame) every time
when the camera gets autofocus.
So i want to implement some kind of scanner. The app continues
requesting autofocus and preview frames until the app detects a valid
barcode in the picture.
To achieve a continuous scanning process the app schould repeatedly
request autofocus of the camera. At the moment when the camera got
autofocus the next autofocus request should be fired immediately.
Do you have any tips for implementig this?

AFAIK Zxing's barcode scanner is open source.
