public:
static void Startup( 
   BarcodeMajorTypeFlags flags
) 

Parameters

flags

Barcode major type. Values can be combined, when appropriate, by using a bitwise OR (|).

Note: This method is obsolete and should no longer be used. You can use the BarcodeEngine object without calling Startup or Shutdown.

This method must be called before calling any other Leadtools.Barcode functionality. If Startup method is called in an application, Exit method must be called before terminating the application.

This method pre-loads the assemblies necessary for the specified barcode operations which can improve performance if you know what barcode types you plan on using. If a barcode major type is not initialized with this function you may still use it and the necessary assemblies will be loaded when Leadtools.Barcode.BarcodeEngine.Read or Leadtools.Barcode.BarcodeEngine.Write is executed.

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7
