I'm trying to configure OpenCV 2.4.5 for Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 8(x64). I carefully followed the steps as given in many popular tutorials but when I build the code I get a linking error.
set path variables (~\opencv\build\x64\vc11\bin)
build configurations of the Visual studio project. 2.1 set path to C/C++ additional include directories; ~\opencv\include
2.2 set path to additional library directories; ~\opencv\build\x64\vc11\lib
2.3 Added additional dependencies to the linker input
opencv_calib3d245d.lib
opencv_contrib245d.lib
opencv_core245d.lib
opencv_features2d245d.lib
opencv_flann245d.lib
opencv_gpu245d.lib
opencv_haartraining_engined.lib
opencv_highgui245d.lib
opencv_imgproc245d.lib
opencv_legacy245d.lib
opencv_ml245d.lib
opencv_nonfree245d.lib
opencv_objdetect245d.lib
opencv_photo245d.lib
opencv_stitching245d.lib
opencv_superres245d.lib
opencv_ts245d.lib
opencv_video245d.lib
opencv_videostab245d.lib
This is the basic procedure given in many resources but I get the following error when trying to build a sample code.
error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘opencv_calib3d245d.lib’
Please note that these references are for Windows 7 users, so I want to know whether the process is different for Windows 8 and if so, what changes should I make to get this working.
Thanks
