global.magstripe Object
The global.magstripe object is a widget that provides an interface to magnetic card readers or barcode
scanners.
In the case of a card reader, the widget reacts to a scan of a card and returns the value of the data that is
recorded on the magnetic stripe. For credit cards, the data returned is typically cardholder's name, card
number, and expiration date. The widget returns the data in an unparsed form, so it is the responsibility
of the developer to decrypt if necessary and parse the data.
For a barcode reader, the widget registers a scanned event and returns the string that represents the
barcode.
The global.magstripe object code is:
interface Magstripe {
signals:
void opened();
Barcode Scanner Entered in the Application Data Editor
void open(in string deviceName);
void close();
