Compiling OpenCV

I opened up the solution file in the [InstallDir]\_make\opencv.vs2005 and modified one of the .cpp files in the highgui library.

While compiling, Visual Studio throws the error -

  Unable to start progam 
    C:/Users/../AppData/Local/Temp/opencv.build/cv_Debug.Win32/cv.dll

    The system cannot find the file specified.

I think I am missing something in it. What 开发者_如何学JAVAis the stepped procedure to change and recompile OpenCV library using Visual Studio.

I would appreciate any help!

Thank You..

Unless you downloaded the visual-studio specific version of the open cv distribution files, you need to follow the instructions on the OpenCV wiki, that is

1. download cmake
2. have cmake generate makefiles/solutions
3. build using the generated files

I guess you want to customize a function. You can do this, without recompiling OpenCV from scratch. You can simply copy the .cpp source file locally in your current working directory, and add it(click n drag or add existing file) in the "Source Files" in your project. You might need to copy some other headers as well. You will find everything in the opencv archive. (opencv/modules/highgui/src)
