Creating fingerprint classes
By using classes, you can categorize fingerprints within your application.
About this task
The default framework includes two classes:
- <Global>
- This class includes the generic 555 fingerprint with page type Other. The generic fingerprint is useful because it enables application development without page fingerprints.
- <New>
- When you use the FindFingerprint action during page identification, you can create fingerprints automatically for unrecognized pages. If you call FindFingerprint with the parameter True and Datacap does not find a matching fingerprint, Datacap adds the runtime fingerprint to the New class.
Here, you create a class for each document type: Car_Rental, Hotel, and Flight. Categorization by document type is not required but provides a useful way to organize many fingerprints.
Procedure
To create the fingerprint classes:
- On the Datacap Studio Zones tab, in the Fingerprints pane, click Add new item and select Add fingerprint class.
- Enter Car_Rental and click OK.
- Repeat for Flight and Hotel.
