Integrating Zxing Barcode scanner to my android app

I'm trying to integrate barcode scanner in my android app.

These are the things i have done:

1) i added core-3.2.1 module to my project. 2) added an activity

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<activity
android:name="com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity"
android:screenOrientation="landscape" >
</activity>

I'm getting that Cannot resolve symbol 'CaptureActivity'. What should i do more?

I have checked other stackoverflow posts but i'm unable to fix this.

You can add zxing library to your app via gradle dependency

just add this to your build.gradle file

compile 'com.google.zxing:core:3.2.1'
compile 'com.journeyapps:zxing-android-embedded:3.0.3@aar'

Now in your onCreate method of your activity , do the following 

 IntentIntegrator scanIntegrator = new IntentIntegrator(MainActivity.this);
 scanIntegrator.setPrompt("Scan a Barcode");
 scanIntegrator.setBeepEnabled(true); 
 scanIntegrator.setOrientationLocked(true);
 scanIntegrator.setBarcodeImageEnabled(true);
 scanIntegrator.initiateScan();

You can find a sample project here

Make sure you have added module reference into your project. 1) New -> Import new Module -> Select your zxing library. Let the gradle build.

Then, Go to File -> Project Structure -> Select app under modules -> Go to Dependency tab -> add zxing module by clicking on green add button.

Rebuild your project

make sure you use give dependencies in app.gradle file than use scanner view for scan barcode

dependencies {
    compile 'me.dm7.barcodescanner:zxing:1.8.3'
} 

ZXingScannerView mScannerView = new ZXingScannerView(this);
        Handler handlerThread = new Handler();
        handlerThread.post(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                mScannerView.setResultHandler(new ZXingScannerView.ResultHandler() {
                    @Override
                    public void handleResult(Result result) {

                        Log.e(TAG, result.getText());


                    }
                });
            }
        });
