[Solved] is opencv/Qt installation stable? slash directions make no difference still compiles

Technologist

I installed a simple app 'Lena " Qt/OpenCV and it executes successfully. However it appears that the backslash/forward slash in the includepath is virtually ignored "/", "//", "\" or "\ " in the pro.file. Either way with the slashes, it works. Is this normal behavior? From the evidence can I conclude whether the build is stable or not?

.PRO file

QT       -= gui

CONFIG   += console
CONFIG   -= app_bundle

int main()
{
    IplImage *image = cvLoadImage("C:\\lena.jpg");
    Mat im(image);
    imshow("TEST",im);
    waitKey();
    return 0;
}
  ```                                ^

Hi and welcome to devnet,

When using Qt you can simplify things and just use the Unix forward slash notation even on Windows

Thx, problem resolved. Consider it closed.
