I'm looking to integrate some sort of barcode scanner into a phonegap application. I just need to find out whether it is possible on all of the major platforms (iOS/Android/Blackberry/WP7)?

EDIT: By barcode scanning, I mean scanning a barcode through the camera.

Thanks!

We have made BarcodeScanner plugins available for:

Android https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/Android/BarcodeScanner

iOS https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iPhone/BarcodeScanner

BlackBerry https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/BlackBerry/BarcodeScanner

We don't have a plugin for WP7 yet but I'll drop an email to Jesse and maybe he'll get to it as WP7 support is growing fast.
