Problem qith OpenCV and Qt creator

[SGaist]

What is the exact error you are getting ?

[AlbertoAlegria]

I cant compile my OpenCV program in Qt, i post my OpenCV code and my .pro file. I dont know exactly waths happenned, I'm new in Qt, but in OpenCV I have a little bit more experience

[SGaist]

What error does your compiler give you ?

i have a problem I just downloaded the qt and also I want to use the opencv but I can't because it says
#-------------------------------------------------

Project created by QtCreator 2014-04-02T02:57:55

#-------------------------------------------------

QT += core gui

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

TARGET = JanelaOpenCv
TEMPLATE = app
LIBS += -lopencv_core
-lopencv_highgui
SOURCES += main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp

HEADERS += mainwindow.h

FORMS += mainwindow.ui
it says that they cannot find the libraries I do not know how to kink them or how to start working with it thanks

[SGaist]

If OpenCV is not installed in a known path, you need to tell Qt where to find it.

Add
@LIBS += -L/path/to/OpenCV/libraries@

To your pro file

ok fine i did this
#-------------------------------------------------

Project created by QtCreator 2014-04-02T13:24:58

#-------------------------------------------------

QT += core

QT -= gui

TARGET = Consola
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle
LIBS += -L/path/to/OpenCV/libraries
TEMPLATE = app

SOURCES += main.cp

i have my openCv in the following path so how do i have to do set it to start using it
the path is the following
E:\Open Cv\opencv\build\x86\vc12\lib
so please help me how to do it i am new on it

[SGaist]

@LIBS += -LE:/OpenCV/opencv/build/x86/vc12/lib@

Forward slashes and avoid spaces in the path, it's known to be problematic

[burdos]

Oh ok thanks for the help so it runs now very well so it means that all the libraries in the folder can be used right??

[SGaist]

Yes it is right

[burdos]

i am trying to do run my code in this way

#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <opencv\highgui.h>
#include <opencv\cv.h>

using namespace cv;

//these will be changed using trackbars

but it says

#include <opencv\highgui.h>
^

E:\QT\Qt Projects\Project 2\Consola\Project image\main.cpp

so please how can i solve it

[SGaist]

Add the path of OpenCV's include.
Something like:

@INCLUDEPATH += E:/OpenCV/opencv/include@

[burdos]

i just did it but ok i have this code
QT += core gui

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

TARGET = Project_image
TEMPLATE = app
INCLUDEPATH += E:/OpenCV/opencv/include
LIBS += -LE:/OpenCV/opencv/build/x86/vc12/lib
SOURCES += main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp
../../../project 1/objectTrackingTut.cpp
../../../project 1/objectTrackingTut.cpp
../../../project 1/objectTrackingTut.cpp

HEADERS += mainwindow.h

FORMS += mainwindow.ui

and in the main i have
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <opencv\highgui.h>
#include <opencv\cv.h>

using namespace cv;
//initial min and max HSV filter values.
//these will be changed using trackbars
int H_MIN = 0;
int H_MAX = 256;
int S_MIN = 0;
int S_MAX = 256;
int V_MIN = 0;
int V_MAX = 256;
//default capture width and height
const int FRAME_WIDTH = 640;
const int FRAME_HEIGHT = 480;
//max number of objects to be detected in frame
const int MAX_NUM_OBJECTS=50;
//minimum and maximum object area
const int MIN_OBJECT_AREA = 2020;
const int MAX_OBJECT_AREA = FRAME_HEIGHTFRAME_WIDTH/1.5;
//names that will appear at the top of each window
const string windowName = "Original Image";
const string windowName1 = "HSV Image";
const string windowName2 = "Thresholded Image";
const string windowName3 = "After Morphological Operations";
const string trackbarWindowName = "Trackbars";
void on_trackbar( int, void* )
{//This function gets called whenever a
// trackbar position is changed

and i still have problems it says

#include <opencv\highgui.h> not such a file or directory i do not know why

@SGaist please where can i found the build directory in QtCreator !!

[SGaist]

Look at the Projects panel, you have the "Build directory" path there
