Hello Experts,

I have generated the QR within the Sales Invoice report but the problem is while I am trying to generate the same with Arabic characters it wont appear.

Following are the code.

    Microsoft.Dynamics.QRCode.Encoder   qrCode;
    System.String                       netString;
    str                                 tempFileName;
    System.Drawing.Bitmap               netBitmap;

    FileIOPermission                    perm;
    BinData                             binData;
    container                           imageContainer;

    ;

    netString = _QRDataString;//"ahmed muhammad alam and mohammad el sayed are the best brothers in bakheet along with Mr. Kashif choudry";
    qrCode = new Microsoft.Dynamics.QRCode.Encoder();
    netBitmap = qrCode.Encode(netString); //encode the string as Bitmap can be used already

    tempFileName = qrCode.GetTempFile(netString); //to get the QR temporary file

    perm = new FileIOPermission(tempFileName,'r');
    perm.assert();
    binData = new binData();
    binData.loadFile(tempFileName);
    imageContainer = binData.getData(); //get the QR code image put inside container so can be stored inside database for storing or reporting purpose

    CodeAccessPermission::revertAssert();
    return binData.getData();

download MessagingToolkit dll and use below code.

MessagingToolkit.QRCode.Codec.QRCodeEncoder encoder = new MessagingToolkit.QRCode.Codec.QRCodeEncoder();

System.Drawing.Bitmap obj = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(encoder.Encode('CompnayName/اسم الشركة', System.Text.Encoding::get_UTF8()));

Hi Abdul Aziz,

Thank you so much for the suggestion and for the very quick response.. The second option, saving to memory stream worked like a charm.

In D365FO the DLL is available by standard. You just need to use it in your custom code. You can go to AOT>Reference> QRCoder will be there.

Hi Aziz,

Thank you for the Quick reply, i will go with the second idea i.e memorystream. will try and let you know .

BTW my environment is D365. i hope that QrCoder.dll would work fine as expected i hav added as reference to my project as you suggested above.

RE: How to generate QR CODE with Arabic characters

Hi,

Let me summarize my work here:

*******D365FO*******

You have to use below code

System.Drawing.Bitmap result;

System.String totalString;

totalString="النص باللغة العربية ";

QRCodeGenerator.ECCLevel eccLevel;

QRCodeGenerator qrGenerator = new QRCodeGenerator();

QRCodeData qrCodeData = qrGenerator.CreateQrCode(totalString, eccLevel);

QRCode qrCode = new QRCode(qrCodeData);

result = qrCode.GetGraphic(20);

now result variable have your bitmap with QR and you want to have it as a image container.

you can do 2 things.

1. Either save it in temp path and reread it in BinaryData and convert binary data to image container (Cons: Sometimes user doesnt av permission on local folder and this method will fail)

//save to file

//open file on binarydata

//get binarydata on image

2. OR save it to MemoryStream and reread it with BinaryData

imageContainer=Binary::constructFromMemoryStream(memStream).getContainer();

use imageContainer in your report/form etc

**************AX 2012***********

There is an issue with D365FO QRCoder.dll so you cannot utilize that DLL directly in AX 2012

1. You will need to create a C# project

2. Reference QRCoder.dll from D365FO on your project

3. use QRCoder to generate bitmap and return it

4. After compliation take the DLL and reference it AX 2012

5. Use the referenced DLL and get the bitmap ready

6. save it to file and reread it in container OR use memorystream

Similarly goes for AX 2009.

I hope you got the idea behind it.

Mark the answer verified if it helps.

I didn't try on AX2012, but surely there will be a way to do that.
