Hi - has anyone installed OpenCV 2.0 on windows? Does the installation create directories such as "...\opencv\cxcore\include"? How do you link the libraries in Visual C++ 2008 (Express) and also the include files? In short how do you use OpenCV2.0 with VC++ 2008?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Max.
For now, documentation and examples on OpenCV2.0 are hard to come by. I would strongly recommend using OpenCV 1.1 unless there is a compelling need to use 2.0. There are many many more tutorials for installing OpenCV 1.x, than for 2 including those specific to Visual Studio.
To includee OpenCV2.0 into VS2008, you will need to add path for both library and headers files into your project settings.
with your project opened, press alt+f7, then expand "configuration properties". then goto C\C++ -> General -> "additional include directories", fill it up with path you get from opencv installation folder.
repeat the same process for library, which is under Linker -> General -> "additional library directories"
