I am using https://github.com/wildabeast/BarcodeScanner with good results.

Hey Hamilton!

Hey Hamilton!

I have tried to build a few minutes ago on Intel XDK 2366 and got the same. "Error: Plugin PhoneGap Plugin BarcodeScanner failed to install."

By the way are you Brazilian? :)

@Jonas > yes, Brazilian. Do

Hamilton_Tenório_da_ — Tue, 15 Sep 2015 21:00:20 GMT

@Jonas > yes, Brazilian. Do you too? Do you prefer in Portuguese?

See my configuration inside .xdk file:

"id": "BarcodeScanner",
"version": "",
"selectedState": "Included",
"data": {},
"paramvals": {},
"dependsOn": [],
"dependedBy": [],
"custom": "true",
"name": "BarcodeScanner",
"origin": "https://github.com/wildabeast/BarcodeScanner",
"originType": "repo",
"sourceLocation": ""

It is working for me. Android and iOS.

Yes Hamilton, I am Brazilian

Jonas1 — Tue, 15 Sep 2015 23:59:04 GMT

Yes Hamilton, I am Brazilian too. Originally from BA, but living in SC :)

We can keep in English no problem.

Well, I installed https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner on the Intel XDK EA 2337 got the same error, then I removed all Custom Intel XDK Plugins and I am able to build it for android, but not for windows. Any suggestion?

If you could, I need help to build and test for windows. I have paid Google and Microsoft stores.

Hi Jonas. Great! SC and BA

Hamilton_Tenório_da_ — Wed, 16 Sep 2015 15:53:57 GMT

Hi Jonas. Great! SC and BA are good places. I am from SP/SP.

You are using XDK EA 2337? I don´t know thi version. I am using the 2366 version (newer?). Do you tested with other?

I do not build in Windows. I don´t know, but almost all apps that I tryied before do not run, then I leave this environment for a moment. Is just with this version that you have problems?

You said that you paid Google and Microsoft stores? Both are free (as far as I know). Only Apple has a year payment.

Jonas1 — Wed, 16 Sep 2015 17:37:13 GMT

Hi Hamilton!

Whats up?

I have both XDK 2366 (Intel Production) and XDK EA 2337. XDK EA is the only way to build windows app 8.1 (I think). (Intel dont reccomend to use it in production).

I was using XDK 2366, but after I removed intel.xdk.device.scanBarcode() plugin I had problem to use cordova scanner plugin, then I built my app with XDK EA 2337, so far it is working, but I am still unable to build windows version in both. I tried to put the plugin you told me and a new one, both fail in XDK 2366.

I wish you were right about google and windows stores were free :) Microsoft and Google US$25 and Apple US$99. In the mean time I dont intend to built for Apple.

@Jonas - there is a problem

Pamela_H_Intel — Wed, 16 Sep 2015 18:12:23 GMT

@Jonas - there is a problem with Cordova Windows Mobile builds. See https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-xdk/topic/563699#comment-1838804

Hamilton and Jonas,

EA clarification: EA Edition of Intel XDK is the beta version. We introduced it a few months ago as a way to get feedback on new features before we incorporate them into the mainstream version. The numbers do not correspond - Intel XDK 2366 is the latest mainstream version and Intel XDK EA 2337 is the latest early access version. New versions of both will be released very soon.

Jonas -- try building with

PaulF_IntelCorp — Mon, 28 Sep 2015 17:21:01 GMT

Jonas -- try building with the Android tile, rather than the Crosswalk tile. It will usually give more error details and may provide useful information as to what is going wrong.

Are you getting a "detailed"

PaulF_IntelCorp — Mon, 28 Sep 2015 21:59:56 GMT

Are you getting a "detailed" build error log with these? See about half-way down this doc page for an example of what I mean: https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/using-the-build-tab

Hi Paul!

Jonas1 — Wed, 30 Sep 2015 04:38:20 GMT

Hi Paul!

How are you?

I've tried to build (Crosswalk Runtime Embedded 14) with phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner and failed too.
Then I removed and reinstalled SDK Intel 2496. Installed the phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner using
Third-Party plugins instead of Featured Plugins. Now I am able to build Android, Crosswalk and windows applications.

later on I will test it. Too late now and I am going to bed :)

Jonas, in the plugin

PaulF_IntelCorp — Wed, 30 Sep 2015 18:09:07 GMT

Jonas, in the plugin management section of the projects tab, what version of the plugin is given when you click that plugin's name in the list of installed plugins? Can you provide a screenshot of that plugin item when it is expanded, similar to this (note I have expanded the "Keyboard" plugin in the image below):

Hi Paul!

Whats up?

There you go.

Paul, I did as you requested,

Jonas1 — Wed, 30 Sep 2015 21:47:39 GMT

Paul, I did as you requested, "https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/using-the-build-tab" built with crosswalk, uploaded crosswalk.x86.timestamp.apk after change to simple mode it didnt allow me upload crosswalk.arm.timestamp.apk...

Hi Jonas, thank you for that

PaulF_IntelCorp — Thu, 01 Oct 2015 00:06:59 GMT

Hi Jonas, thank you for that screen shot. We are making adjustments to the feed that specifies the versions for those featured plugins, I think that change will fix what you have been seeing.

Regarding your last post:

Paul, I did as you requested, "https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/using-the-build-tab" built with crosswalk, uploaded crosswalk.x86.timestamp.apk after change to simple mode it didnt allow me upload crosswalk.arm.timestamp.apk...

I don't follow what you mean. Do you mean that you have an app in the store already and now you cannot upload a new version of it with your current build? If that is what you mean, this post might help: https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-xdk/topic/594778

Hi Paul!

Jonas1 — Thu, 01 Oct 2015 00:35:28 GMT

Hi Paul!

Thanks for your prompt reply!

I will look forward for the changes. :)

Regarding this post

Regarding your last post:

"https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/using-the-build-tab" built with crosswalk, uploaded crosswalk.x86.timestamp.apk after change to simple mode it didnt allow me upload crosswalk.arm.timestamp.apk...

I meant that for the first time I built my app with crosswalk instead of android. But I was able to upload only one file the crosswalk.x86 one to google play store. My question is: Should I use crosswalk or android tab to build my app? Thanks in advance.
