Hi all, I have been looking at opencv (3.0) closely. I haven't decided whether I will have a C++ application or a Python application.

I am wondering what sort of environment C++ developers have? Do you folks mix C++ and Python code? I mean is there any reason for you to pass data structures around from Python to your own C++ extension module? Or perhaps call some simple Python script from my C++ executable?.

In Windows, I plan the following opencv 3 environment: For C++: Use Visual Studio 2012, and get pre built x64 opencv 3.0 build.
For Python : Get the 64 bit anaconda distribution which has everything for opencv bundled. (basically they are not from the same compiler )

Would this pose any problems? Are there situations where I would have to build Python, numpy, opencv everything later from the one compiler?.
Thanks T
