Setup version 2.4.2 in Windows

Hi, I tried to install version 2.4.2 using the tutorial available in the documentation but the documentation is really outdated, even the videos described in the tutorial are outdated and if they are followed the installation will certainly fail.

I used the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZvjTTK9zTw&feature=related, which helped a lot and was able to install version 2.4.2 on windows 7 64 bits. I was also able to set up visual studio 2010 express and compilo a hello world program.

The point is that for some reason the examples given in the samples folder were not compiled when I compiled using the OpenCV Microsoft Visual Studio Solution.

My question is: is there a simple way to compile the files in samples c/c++ folders in order to use them??

Thank you
