ex. CGI

  use GD::Barcode::UPCE;
  binmode(STDOUT);
  print "Content-Type: image/png\n\n";
  print GD::Barcode::UPCE->new('123456')->plot->png;

  my $oGdBar = GD::Barcode::UPCE->new('123456789');

GD::Barcode::UPCE is a subclass of GD::Barcode and allows you to create UPC-E barcode image with GD. This module based on "Generate Barcode Ver 1.02 By Shisei Hanai 97/08/22".

$oGdBar = GD::Barcode::UPCE->new($sTxt);

Constructor. Creates a GD::Barcode::UPCE object for $sTxt. $sTxt has 6 or 7 or 8 numeric characters([0-9]). If $sTxt has 6 characters, this module adds '0' at the front of $sTxt. and calculates CD for you. If $sTxt has 7 characters, this module calaculates CD for you.

$oGd = $oGdBar->plot([Height => $iHeight, NoText => 0 | 1]);

creates GD object with barcode image for the $sTxt specified at new method. $iHeight is height of the image. If NoText is 1, the image has no text image of $sTxt.

 ex.
  my $oGdB = GD::Barcode::UPCE->new('123456');
  my $oGD = $oGdB->plot(NoText=>1, Height => 20);
  # $sGD is a GD image with Height=>20 pixels, with no text.

$sPtn = $oGdBar->barcode();

returns a barcode pattern in string with '1', 'G' and '0'. '1' means black, 'G' also means black but little bit long, '0' means white.

 ex.
  my $oGdB = GD::Barcode::UPCE->new('123456');
  my $sPtn = $oGdB->barcode();
  # $sPtn = '';

$GD::Barcode::UPCE::errStr

has error message.

$oGdBar->{$text}

has barcode text based on $sTxt specified in new method.
