DATAWEGDE INTEGRATION INTO A WEBVIEW-BASED APP

• Successfully tested on A8.1, A13, A14 Webview 117, 121 and 122

• Two variants are now supported and each creates its dedicated DW profile

  

• Screenshots

  

Code annotations about DW Intents and Profiles

• The onCreate method

  DW-WEBVIEW/app/src/main/java/com/zebra/dw_webview/HDLauncherActivity.java

  Line 47 in 2541876

  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

  defines at the same time

  • a new DW profile

  

  • and the related Intent Receiver

  

  for other purposes the received barcode data is then passed to a webview and displayed as HTML text.

• DW profiles have the following features

  • each profile is associated to the respective app variant

    bundleApp1.putString("PACKAGE_NAME", appName)

    val activityName = arrayOf("*")

    bundleApp1.putStringArray("ACTIVITY_LIST", activityName)

  • the IntentOutput plugin is configured to send an intent named after the applicationID (app's package name) bParams.putString("intent_action", appName)

  • a prefix (1# or 2#) is added to the reading output to differentiate the profile that generated it

    bundleAllPluginsConfig.add(dwSetPrefixPostfix(context))

  • the KeystrokeOutput plugin is switched off

    bundleAllPluginsConfig.add(dwSwitchOffKeystrokeOutput(context))

HIDE OVERLAY WINDOWS

To test this feature:

• ensure the DW profile uses INTERNAL_CAMERA as barcode input source
• keep switch 5 off
• press 4 to activate a DW profile
• press 1 or side scan buttons to trigger scanning. Note that the camera preview is visible
• then set 5
• again scan with 1 or side buttons - appreciate that the scanning completes, but no preview is available
• long press 2 - the system camera preview is brought up. it is not affected by the setHideOverlayWindows API
