Mechanism Objects Compatibility with Version 10

This section describes all changes to mechanism objects which may require changes in the source code of your applications.

  • The obsolete DocumentAnalyzer and Exporter objects have been removed. Use the more efficient methods of the FRDocument and FRPage objects, which take care of all the information needed for full document processing. You are no longer required to maintain the DocumentInfo object on all processing stages, keep track of all the image documents with the corresponding layouts, or implement the IRecognizedPages interface.
    See below for recommendations on which methods should replace the methods of DocumentAnalyzer and Exporter you previously used.

DocumentAnalyzer Removed The object is obsolete. Its methods were replaced by more efficient methods of the FRDocument and FRPage objects, which do not require you to maintain the DocumentInfo object on all processing stages, or implement the IRecognizedPages interface.

AddWordsToCacheDictionary

AddWordToCacheDictionary

CleanCacheDictionary

Removed Use the IFRPage::AddWordsToCacheDictionary, IFRPage::AddWordToCacheDictionary, IFRPage::CleanCacheDictionary methods for working with cache dictionaries.
AnalyzePage Removed Use the IFRPage::Analyze method instead.
AnalyzePages Removed Use the IFRDocument::Analyze method instead.
AnalyzeRegion Removed Use the IFRPage::AnalyzeRegion method instead.
AnalyzeTable Removed Use the IFRPage::AnalyzeTable method instead.
AnalyzeAndRecognizePage Removed Use the IFRPage::PreprocessAnalyzeRecognize method instead.
AnalyzeAndRecognizePages Removed Use the IFRDocument::Process method instead. It performs full processing of the document, including document synthesis.
AutoCleanRecognizerSession Removed Use the IEngine::AutoCleanRecognizerSession property, which works in exactly the same way.
CleanRecognizerSession Removed Use the IEngine::CleanRecognizerSession method, which works in exactly the same way.
DetectOrientation Removed Use the IFRPage::DetectOrientation method instead.
ExtractBarcodes Removed Use the IFRPage::ExtractBarcodes method instead.
FindPageSplitPosition Removed Use the IFRPage::FindPageSplitPosition method instead.
LearnCheckmarks Removed Use the IFRPage::LearnCheckmarks method instead.
RecognizeBlocks Input parameters number changed Use the IFRPage::RecognizeBlocks method instead.
RecognizeImageAsPlainText Removed To recognize an image as plain text create the FRDocument from the image with the help of the IEngine::CreateFRDocumentFromImage method, use the IFRDocument::Process method to recognize the document, then access the IFRDocument::PlainText property.
RecognizeImageDocumentAsPlainText Removed To recognize the page as plain text, use the IFRPage::PreprocessAnalyzeRecognize method, then access the IFRPage::PlainText property.
RecognizePage Removed Use the IFRPage::Recognize method instead.
RecognizePages Removed Use the IFRDocument::Recognize method instead.
RemoveGeometricalDistortions Removed Use the IFRPage::CorrectGeometricalDistortions method instead.
IDocumentAnalyzerEvents Removed

This interface is no longer necessary because the object which reported events has been removed.

The IFRDocumentEvents and IFRPageEvents interfaces provide similar information on progress and errors for the objects which replaced DocumentAnalyzer.

Exporter Removed The object is obsolete. Its methods were replaced by more efficient methods of the FRDocument and FRPage objects, which do not require you to maintain the DocumentInfo object on all processing stages, or implement the IRecognizedPages interface.
ExportPage Removed Use the IFRPage::Export method instead.
ExportPagesEx Removed Use the IFRDocument::Export method instead.
IExporterEvents Removed

This interface is no longer necessary because the object which reported events has been removed.

The IFRDocumentEvents and IFRPageEvents interfaces provide similar information on progress and errors for the objects which replaced Exporter.

FREngineModuleEnum FREM_DocumentAnalyzer Removed This constant is no longer in use.
