Compile Opencv 3 with visual studio 9 [closed]
Due to some circumstances I need to use an older version of visual studio, I tried to use the this guide and compile the source from scratch but I ended up with quite a bunch of errors. I made a quick research but I could not find something. Thus before I restart the procedure I would like to ask if there is a compatibility matter or not.
you will need some tweaks, but it is for sure doable.
iirc, you need to add stdint.h to your compiler, and fix a part in the mjpg encoder[ result.data() -> &(result[0]) ]
just saying: before changing any of the opencv src code, don't forget to
git checkout -b my_new_branch... (as to leave the master one clean !)@berak can you be more specific about how I can do the changes that you are pointing in your first comment or point me to a guide because my Visual Studio experience is close to 0.
download stdint.h e.g. from here and put it into D:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include (wherever you installed vs2008)
this has to be:
m_file_stream.read(&(result[0]), chunk.m_size);(cl9 does not know any c++11)@berak many thanks, indeed your instructions were helpful. ;-)
was that it ? do we have to append something to the list ?
nope, after following the instructions that you pointed above and following the guide I pointed in my initial post the compilation succeeded both in Release and Debug mode without problem. So, consider it solved for the moment, many thanks again ;-)
