I am trying to use MessagingToolkit to decode an image in C#/ASP. I have managed to encode a qr using this package, but when i try to decode, using the code below it comes up with 2 errors (at the bottom of the page)
I believe this is because I am not getting the image correctly after uploading, but can someone point out exactly where I have gone wrong. Thanks.
    protected void CreateCode_OnClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string path = "C:\\Users\\Wayneio\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2012\\Projects\\BAMSystem\\BAMSystem\\";
        if (QRUpload.HasFiles == true)
        {
            FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(QRUpload.FileName);
            string extA = fi.Extension;
            if (extA == ".jpg" || extA == ".png")
            {
               QRCodeDecoder decoder = new QRCodeDecoder();
               QRUpload.SaveAs(path + QRUpload.FileName);
               System.Drawing.Image myImg = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(path + QRUpload.FileName);
               decoder.Decode(myImg);
            }
            else
            {
                error.Text = "You have uploaded a " + extA + " file. Please upload either a PNG or a JPG";
            }
        }
        else
        {
            error.Text = "You have not uploaded an image.";
        }
    }
Error1:
Error   2   Argument 1: cannot convert from 'System.Drawing.Image' to 'MessagingToolkit.QRCode.Codec.Data.QRCodeImage'  c:\users\wayneio\documents\visual studio 2012\Projects\BAMSystem\BAMSystem\default.aspx.cs  38  35  BAMSystem
Error2:
Error   1   The best overloaded method match for 'MessagingToolkit.QRCode.Codec.QRCodeDecoder.Decode(MessagingToolkit.QRCode.Codec.Data.QRCodeImage)' has some invalid arguments    c:\users\wayneio\documents\visual studio 2012\Projects\BAMSystem\BAMSystem\default.aspx.cs  38  20  BAMSystem
P.S if anyone has documentation on this MessagingToolkit QR package, it would be useful
