Compiling errors in header files

edit

Hi all,

So I decided to try and fiddle around with openCV for a bit, but I cannot seem to get my setup working.

First I did the setup as described in the tutorials, then I tried to compile this very simple demo project:

#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
#include <iostream>

using namespace cv;
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  Mat im = imread(argc == 2 ? argv[1] : "lena.jpg", 1);
  if (im.empty())
  {
    cout << "Cannot open image!" << endl;
    return -1;
  }

  imshow("image", im);
  waitKey(0);

  return 0;
}

Somehow, when I hit compile, it gives me the following errors:

17:45:49 * Incremental Build of configuration Debug for project opencvtest * Info: Internal Builder is used for build g++ "-IC:\opencv\build\include" -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -o "src\opencvtest.o" "..\src\opencvtest.cpp" In file included from C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/core.hpp:4824, from C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp:46, from ..\src\opencvtest.cpp:1: C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp: In static member function static cv::Ptr<_Tp2> cv::Algorithm::create(const std::string&)': C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp:3918: error: expected primary-expression before '>' token C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp:3918: error: expected primary-expression before ')' token C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp: At global scope: C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp:3970: error: got 2 template parameters forvoid cv::AlgorithmInfo::addParam(cv::Algorithm&, const char, cv::Ptr<_Tp2>&, bool, cv::Ptr<_Tp2> (cv::Algorithm::)(), void (cv::Algorithm::)(const cv::Ptr<_Tp2>&), const std::string&)' C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp:3970: error: but 1 required C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp:3979: error: redefinition of void cv::AlgorithmInfo::addParam(cv::Algorithm&, const char*, cv::Ptr<_Tp2>&, bool, cv::Ptr<_Tp2> (cv::Algorithm::*)(), void (cv::Algorithm::*)(const cv::Ptr<_Tp2>&), const std::string&)' C:/opencv/build/include/opencv2/core/operations.hpp:3970: error:void cv::AlgorithmInfo::addParam(cv::Algorithm&, const char, cv::Ptr<_Tp2>&, bool, cv::Ptr<_Tp2> (cv::Algorithm::)(), void (cv::Algorithm::)(const cv::Ptr<_Tp2>&), const std::string&)' previously declared here

17:45:51 Build Finished (took 1s.974ms)

As I cannot imagine that there will actually be errors in the header files, there must be something wrong with my setup. Does anyone know what I did wrong?

The setup:

• Platform windows 7 64 bits
• compiler: mingw
• IDE: Eclipse with CDT
• include path (in project settings) c:\opencv\build\include (I copied the contents from \include\opencv to \include, because otherwise the paths to the files in \include\opencv2 would not be correct).
• library path (in project settings): c:\opencv\build\x64\mingw\lib opencv
• version: 2.4.6
• linked librarys: core, imgproc and highgui

Thank you all in advance!
