The AutoFormsEngine Constructor(IMasterFormsRepository,List<IOcrEngine>,BarcodeEngine,Int32,Int32,Boolean) is available as an add-on to the LEADTOOLS Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.
Initializes a new AutoFormsEngine class object that uses multi-threading to perform AutoFormsEngine functions such as recognition and processing.Visual Basic (Declaration) | |

public: AutoFormsEngine( IMasterFormsRepository^ repository, List<IOcrEngine^>^ ocrEngines, BarcodeEngine^ barcodeEngine, int minimumConfidenceKnownForm, int minimumConfidenceRecognized, bool recognizeFirstPageOnly ) |
Parameters
- repository
- Repository of the Master Forms.
- ocrEngines
- List of Leadtools.Forms.Ocr.IOcrEngine that are used for optical character recognition and processing. The size of the list specifies the number of threads to be used in AutoFormsEngine.
- barcodeEngine
- The Leadtools.Barcode.BarcodeEngine that is used for barcode recognition and processing.
- minimumConfidenceKnownForm
- The minimum confidence value to decide that the Form type result is a known type. It ranges from 0 to 100 and usually it is less than minimumConfidenceRecognized.
- minimumConfidenceRecognized
- The minimum confidence value to decide that the Form type is recognized and no further comparison with Master Forms is needed. It ranges from 0 to 100 and usually it is greater than minimumConfidenceKnownForm.
- recognizeFirstPageOnly
- Recognize the form based on the first page only.

It is the user's responsibility to dispose of this object when it is no longer needed by calling Dispose.
ocrEngines should be provided. If it is null, an exception is thrown.
If barcodeEngine is null, Leadtools.Forms.Recognition.Barcode.BarcodeObjectsManager will not be used for recognition and Leadtools.Forms.Processing.BarcodeFormField will not be processed.
The recognition Object Managers will be set to the managers used to generate the Master Forms in the repository.
Using Multiple threads is recommended since it speeds up form recognition and processing.
