Remarks
The state auto-detection feature is not implemented on all the supported countries. Use this function to
determine which countries can use the AutoDetectState function.
idData Library Properties
idData library store the detected textual information in an internal data structure. This structure is
refreshed in each RefreshData() function call. Some of the properties are relevant to some states and
some are irrelevant. For example, the property Weight is relevant to id cards of states such as Arizona,
California and Georgia but it does not exist in states such as Arkansas or Michigan. If a property is
irrelevant to a particular state, or if the field is not detected, it clears to an empty string. Loading the
properties is done using a simple string assignment. The Name field is parsed and generates four
additional fields (First name, Middle name, last name and name suffix).
The supported properties are:
DateOfBirth Sex SigNum
Text1 Text2 Text3
An additional property is LastStateIndex. It is useful when iterating in a loop between the entire states
id from the first (index 0) to the last one.
