+# C bindings for zxing-cpp
+
+This is about the C-API of zxing-cpp. If you have any comments or feedback, please have a look at https://github.com/zxing-cpp/zxing-cpp/discussions/583.
+
+## Installation
+
+To enable the C-API, the library needs to be configured with `cmake -DZXING_C_API=ON`.
+
+Probably the easiest way to play with the C-API is to just modify the [ZXingCTest.c](https://github.com/zxing-cpp/zxing-cpp/blob/master/wrappers/c/ZXingCTest.c) file.
+
+## Usage
+
+The following is close to the most trivial use case scenario that is supported.
+
+```c
+#include "ZXing/ZXingC.h"
+
+int main(int argc, char** argv)
+{
+	int width, height;
+	unsigned char* data;
+	/* load your image data from somewhere. ZXing_ImageFormat_Lum assumes grey scale image data. */
+
+	ZXing_ImageView* iv = ZXing_ImageView_new(data, width, height, ZXing_ImageFormat_Lum, 0, 0);
+
+	ZXing_ReaderOptions* opts = ZXing_ReaderOptions_new();
+	/* set ReaderOptions properties, if requried, e.g. */
+	ZXing_ReaderOptions_setFormats(ZXing_BarcodeFormat_QRCode | ZXing_BarcodeFromat_EAN13);
+
+	ZXing_Barcodes* barcodes = ZXing_ReadBarcodes(iv, opts);
+
+	ZXing_ImageView_delete(iv);
+	ZXing_ReaderOptions_delete(opts);
+
+	if (barcodes) {
+		for (int i = 0, n = ZXing_Barcodes_size(barcodes); i < n; ++i) {
+			const ZXing_Barcode* barcode = ZXing_Barcodes_at(barcodes, i);
+
+			char* format = ZXing_BarcodeFormatToString(ZXing_Barcode_format(barcode));
+			printf("Format     : %s\n", format);
+			ZXing_free(format);
+
+			char* text = ZXing_Barcode_text(barcode);
+			printf("Text       : %s\n", text);
+			ZXing_free(text);
+		}
+		ZXing_Barcodes_delete(barcodes);
+	} else {
+		char* error = ZXing_LastErrorMsg();
+		fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", error);
+		ZXing_free(error);
+	}
+
+	return 0;
+}
+```
