Error when trying to execute the SVM example code

edit

Guys, I am new to openCV and programming. I tried executing the SVM code in PDF and I am getting the above exception.

Unhandled exception at 0x65e70fcd in svm.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.

Can someone please help me out with this?

 }

 imwrite("result.png", image); // save the image

 imshow("SVM Simple Example", image); // show it to the user
 waitKey(0);

 }

i get only 1 exception i.e mentioned above when i add ml210.lib to the linker.. if i do not add ml210.lib to d linker i get d following errors..
