Ok, Just go through the Zxing library source link, and look at Android-Integration part in which you can find how to use Android-Zxing library.

Look at example [Integrate zxing barcode scanner into your Android app natively using Eclipse](http://damianflannery.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/integrate-zxing-barcode-scanner-into-your-android-app-natively-using-eclipse/) – user370305 Apr 10 '12 at 09:35

The way to call the ZXing SCAN Intent from your application, like this:

public Button.OnClickListener mScan = new Button.OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");
        intent.putExtra("SCAN_MODE", "QR_CODE_MODE");
        startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
    }
};

public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
    if (requestCode == 0) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            String contents = intent.getStringExtra("SCAN_RESULT");
            String format = intent.getStringExtra("SCAN_RESULT_FORMAT");
            // Handle successful scan
        } else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
            // Handle cancel
        }
    }
}

If you don't want to use intent method, you can use few classes of ZXing directly in your project.

I did the same following these 2 stackoverflow posts

How to use zxing core as library on my Android project?

Embedding ZXing in android app

After copying the basic classes, you can strip down parts of code of the class CaptureActivity.java (this is the main activity class) by trial and error method.

My way was to import the code into a helloworld, get it working and then play around it by importing this as a subproject. I have also uploaded this hello world project to 4shared. Refer to this post.
