16,433 PointsUrgent!!! Developing an app with QR scanner camera functionality.
Does anyone have any experience developing ios applications that involve creating custom camera interfaces?
for example, snapchat opens the camera and has it's own interface for snapping. Or something such as the QR scanner app being able to recognize a QR Code.
How do you access those properties/protocols of the ios camera from within xcode 6?

16,433 PointsThanks Andrew,
However, I'm sort of new to working with this so I have a few questions so i can get an idea of where i need to look.
Which framework are these objects referenced from? so i can know which classes to import.
How do i create instances, if any, or methods to implement the QR functionality?
Do you have any references for this information?
