 * <p>Abstract class representing the result of decoding a barcode, as more than
 * a String -- as some type of structured data. This might be a subclass which represents
 * a URL, or an e-mail address. {@link ResultParser#parseResult(com.google.zxing.Result)} will turn a raw
 * decoded string into the most appropriate type of structured representation.</p>
