C# Sample: Acquire and save to BMP file

 Top  Previous  Next

The following C# example is all that is required to do the following:

 

•Check if TWAIN is installed.
•Initialize the DTWAIN Dynamic Link Library.
•Select a Source
•Acquire a page using the Native transfer mode
•Save page to a BMP file called "test.bmp"
•Shut down any open TWAIN Source's and DTWAIN itself

using DynaRithmic;

//....

[STAThread]

static void Main()

{

    int TwainOK = TwainAPI.DTWAIN_IsTwainAvailable()

    if ( TwainOK == 1 )

    {

         TwainAPI.DTWAIN_SysInitialize();

         TwainAPI.DTWAIN_TwainSave("-f test.bmp");

         TwainAPI.DTWAIN_SysDestroy();

    }

}

 

For C#, the DynaRithmic.TwainAPI class found in the file DTWAIN32.CS is a class wrapper for the DTWAIN functions.  Note that it is as simple as calling five DTWAIN functions to get the job done.
