S60 Bar Code reading in my own application

Question

Hello,
How can i go about using bar code reading capabilities with my S60 application?
Is there any free libs that i can use? or even comercial ones?

Thanks.

The J2ME code from ZXing will work on an S60, but is suboptimal for two reasons. J2ME can't access auto-focus on Nokia devices, which severely hampers barcode reading. Symbian code can, and will be much faster. However I don't know of decent Symbian code for this purpose. Maybe you can use the J2ME code as a starting point for a port.
