I am trying to incorporate Leadtools OCR and scanning in Windev. Loaded all the .NET assemblies I need and just trying a simple example. This is the example code in C# formsCodec = new RasterCodecs(); ocrEngine = OcrEngineManager.CreateEngine(OcrEngineType.Advantage, false); ocrEngine.Startup(formsCodec, null, null, @"C:\LEADTOOLS 19\Bin\Common\OcrAdvantageRuntime"); //Point repository to directory with existing master forms formsRepository = new DiskMasterFormsRepository(formsCodec, @"C:\Users\Public\Documents\LEADTOOLS Images\Forms\MasterForm Sets\OCR"); autoEngine = new AutoFormsEngine(formsRepository, ocrEngine, null, AutoFormsRecognitionManager.Default | AutoFormsRecognitionManager.Ocr, 30, 80, true); What I'm not sure of is how to do this in Windev for instance: formsCodec must be something i.e this works; FormsCodec is RasterCodecs = new RasterCodecs() does not give an error in Windev but OcrEngine is OcrEngineManager = new OcrEngineManager.CreateEngine(OcrEngineType.Advantage, False) does not work. It seems in C# you just create a variable but in windev we have to declare what type of variable and this is where I fall short. In VB it look like this: Dim MY_LICENSE_FILE As String = "d:\ emp\TestLic.lic" ' Unlock LEADTOOLS special Support Dim MY_DEVELOPER_KEY As String = "abc123xyz" RasterSupport.SetLicense(MY_LICENSE_FILE, MY_DEVELOPER_KEY) formsCodec = New RasterCodecs() ' Create an OCR Engine for each processor on the machine. This allows for optimal use of thread during recognition and processing. ocrEngine = OcrEngineManager.CreateEngine(OcrEngineType.Advantage, False) ocrEngine.Startup(formsCodec, Nothing, Nothing, "C:\LEADTOOLS 19\Bin\Common\OcrAdvantageRuntime") ' Point repository to directory with existing master forms formsRepository = New DiskMasterFormsRepository(formsCodec, "C:\Users\Public\Documents\LEADTOOLS Images\Forms\MasterForm Sets\OCR") autoEngine = New AutoFormsEngine(formsRepository, ocrEngine, Nothing, AutoFormsRecognitionManager.Default Or AutoFormsRecognitionManager.Ocr, 30, 80, True) Thanks in advance Ericus Steyn30WEBDEVen_UShttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev/read.awpmoderateur@pcsoft.fr (El moderador)webmaster@pcsoft.fr (El webmaster)guestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62635/read.awp12 Sep 2017 21:06:00 ZThanks Peter I am going to give that a go.https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62635/read.awphttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62635/read.awp[WD 21]C# or VB Syntax in Windevguestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62633/read.awp12 Sep 2017 17:00:00 ZHi Ericus, Here's how I would code it (but would need to look at the documentation of the OCR assembly. pclOcrEngine is obje…https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62633/read.awphttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62633/read.awp[WD 21]C# or VB Syntax in Windevguestpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/62527-21-syntax-windev-62629/read.awp12 Sep 2017 15:21:00 ZThanks Arie It works for the first 2 lines below but then the 3rd line already shows an error in the code.
