Generating barcode for SSRS report

Variant 1, based on parameters:

    BarcodeSetupId  barcodeSetupId;
    BarcodeSetup    barcodeSetup;
    Barcode         barcode;

    BarCodeString encodeBarcode(Str _barcodeValue)
    {
        if (barcodeSetup.validateBarcode(_barcodeValue))
        {
            barcode.string(true, _barcodeValue, BarcodeContentType::Item);
            barcode.encode();
        }
        else
        {
            throw(error(strfmt("@SYS41409", barcode.barcodeType(), _barcodeValue)));
        }
        return barcode.barcodeStr();
    }

    // Init barcode
    barcodeSetupId  = InventParameters::find().BarcodeSetupIdPick;
    barcodeSetup    = BarcodeSetup::find(barcodeSetupId);
    barcode         = barcodeSetup.barcode();
    if(barcodeSetup.BarcodeType != BarcodeType::NoBarcode)
    {
        // Check font parameters
        //barcodeSetup.FontName;
        //barcodeSetup.FontSize;
    }

    encodeBarcode("packing12345"); // encode string to barcode, should be printed at report to display barcode

Variant 2, specific barcode type:

    BarcodeCode128      barcode128 = BarcodeCode128::construct();

    barcode128.string(true, salesTable.ReturnItemNum);
    barcode128.encode();
    barcode128.barcodeStr(); // returns encoded string of barcode, should be printed at report to display barcode
    //barcode128.barcodeStrHR(); // returns human readable string

In SSRS report use relevant font at the control which should display barcode for case above BC C128 should be used.
