Barcode 128 using iText

[Dinesh Pise]

Dear Friends,

I want to create a barcode image gif file using iText. I google but I found the code which creates image in PDF but my requirement is to create barcode gif/jpg image file.
If someone having the code please share.

Thanks.

We don't actually do that here. We will help you write the code yourself (if we can), but nobody should simply provide you a solution, nor should you expect it.

public static void generateCODABAR(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, String sApplnNo, String sIMGStore) throws Exception
	    {
		 
		   
	        Linear barcode = new Linear();
	        barcode.setType(Linear.CODABAR);
	        //String sApplnNo=GenericProposalData.generateApplNo();
	        // barcode data to encode
	        barcode.setData(sApplnNo);
	        barcode.setN(3);
	        // unit of measure for X, Y, LeftMargin, RightMargin, TopMargin, BottomMargin
	        barcode.setUOM(Linear.UOM_PIXEL);
	        // barcode module width in pixel
	        barcode.setX(2f);
	        // barcode module height in pixel
	        barcode.setY(30f);
	        barcode.setLeftMargin(0f);
	        barcode.setRightMargin(0f);
	        barcode.setTopMargin(0f);
	        barcode.setBottomMargin(0f);
	        // barcode image resolution in dpi
	        barcode.setResolution(72);
	        // disply human readable text under the barcode
	        barcode.setShowText(true);
	        // human reable text font style
	        barcode.setTextFont(new Font("Arial", 0, 12));
	        //  ANGLE_0, ANGLE_90, ANGLE_180, ANGLE_270
	        barcode.setRotate(Linear.ANGLE_0);
	        barcode.renderBarcode(sIMGStore);
	    }

The above code gives me the barcode as image but is that an open source?

Thanks!
