What is libqrcodegencpp1

libqrcodegencpp1 is:

This project aims to be the best, clearest QR Code generator library in multiple languages. The primary goals are flexible options and absolute correctness. Secondary goals are compact implementation size and good documentation comments. Core features:

  • Available in 7 programming languages, all with nearly equal functionality: Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, C++, C, Rust
  • Significantly shorter code but more documentation comments compared to competing libraries
  • Supports encoding all 40 versions (sizes) and all 4 error correction levels, as per the QR Code Model 2 standard
  • Output formats: Raw modules/pixels of the QR symbol (all languages), SVG XML string (all languages except C), BufferedImage raster bitmap (Java only), HTML5 canvas (JavaScript and TypeScript only)
  • Encodes numeric and special-alphanumeric text in less space than general text
  • Open source code under the permissive MIT License

This package contains the shared library in C++.
