Codelab: Easily Integrate barcode scanning in your Enterprise Android Application
summary
Shows how to integrate on-device scanners using DataWedge on Zebra Android devices and proves it by building a working sample app that creates and updates scanner profiles via DataWedge intent APIs. The app constructs nested intent bundles to create profiles programmatically, registers a BroadcastReceiver to parse com.symbol.datawedge data_string and label type, and toggles scanning and symbologies at runtime. Demo includes a UI soft scan trigger, keyboard vs intent vs TCP output options, and a GitHub sample that runs successfully on Zebra hardware.
