Integer scanner.ScannedMinutiae ( data )
Argument |

---|---|
scanner |
The scanner object associated with the device you want to use to complete a scan |
data |
Blob value for the encoded data passed by reference |
Integer. Returns 1 for success or a negative value if an error occurs. For a list of possible errors and their definitions, see ScanCapture.
The value passed in the data argument is either stored in a database or used for verification. It represents, in an abstract manner, the structure of a fingerprint (its loops and whorls) for use by verification algorithms.
The following example passes the scanned data to a local variable with a blob datatype:
li_rtn = l_bioscanner.ScannedMinutiae(lb_mydata)
