OpenCV 2.1.0 with Visual Studio 2008

• These instructions were tested with Visual C++ 9.0 (as part of Visual Studio 2008 Professional).  These instructions do not apply to Visual Studio 2010 which uses a different system for setting VC configuration.

   

  Install OpenCV

   

1. 直接下载Download the OpenCV 2.1.0 Windows installer from SourceForge - "OpenCV-2.1.0-win32-vs2008.exe".免得编译的麻烦和时间空间。

2. 安装到一个目录，例如"C:/OpenCV210，  创建环境变量 $openCVDir 。
3. During installation check the option to add it to your Current User PATH

 

Configure Visual Studio

1. Open VC++ Directories configuration: Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > VC++ Directories

2. Choose "Show directories for: Include files" ：包含文件
   1. Add "$(openCVDir)/include/opencv"
3. Choose "Show directories for: Library files" ： 库文件
   1. Add "$(openCVDir)/lib"
4. Choose "Show directories for: Source files" ：源文件
   1. Add "$(openCVDir)/src/cv"
   2. Add "$(openCVDir)/src/cvaux"
   3. Add "$(openCVDir)/src/cxcore"
   4. Add "$(openCVDir)/src/highgui"

 

Configure your Project

After you've created a project you'll need to add the OpenCV dependencies.

1. Open Project Properties: Project > %projectName% Properties...

2. Open Linker Input properties: Configuration Properties > Linker > Input

3. Open the "..." window to edit "Additional Dependencies" and on each line put:
   1. "cv210.lib"
   2. "cxcore210.lib"
   3. "highgui210.lib"
   4. And any other lib file necessary for your project
4. Your project should now build. If you get any errors try restarting Visual Studio and then doing a clean Rebuild
