  • Available to: C, JavaScript

    Note

    The PODSSymbolScanner interface implements a Symbol Technologies API for the Palm OS and WinCE platforms. You cannot use PODSSymbolScanner on other platforms.

The PODSSymbolScanner object provides the API for working with a Symbol Technologies bar-code scanner device. Your POD might allow users to update information in a POD-specific database by scanning in that new information. The PODSSymbolScanner object provides a way to do this.

You access the PODSSymbolScanner object by using the PODSWindow method createObject( ). Because the PODSWindow object creates the PODSSymbolScanner object, you do not have to free the memory associated with it.

The PODSSymbolScanner object’s API is essentially a cover for the Scan Manager API provided by Symbol Technologies. Refer to the Symbol Technologies documentation for complete descriptions of how to use the Scan Manager.
