Declaration of function and use it

[gauravsharma0190]

@mrjj Hello i did it sir.
but error occurs.

[gauravsharma0190]

@jsulm Yes sir see i have a c code of opencv which process the image.
Now my problem is i want to use this code with qt as when button is pressed my push button calls the function of that C code in which main part of Process is defined.
Here is the C code.
#include "opencv2/imgproc/imgproc.hpp"
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

using namespace cv;

/// Global variables

Mat src, src_gray;
Mat dst, detected_edges;

int edgeThresh = 1;
int lowThreshold;
int const max_lowThreshold = 100;
int ratio = 3;
int kernel_size = 3;
char* window_name = "Edge Map";

/**

@function CannyThreshold
@brief Trackbar callback - Canny thresholds input with a ratio 1:3
/
void CannyThreshold(int, void)
{
/// Reduce noise with a kernel 3x3
blur( src_gray, detected_edges, Size(3,3) );
/// Canny detector
Canny( detected_edges, detected_edges, lowThreshold, lowThreshold*ratio, kernel_size );

/// Using Canny's output as a mask, we display our result
dst = Scalar::all(0);

src.copyTo( dst, detected_edges);
imshow( window_name, dst );
}

/** @function main /
int main( int argc, char* argv )
{
/// Load an image
src = imread( argv[1] );

if( !src.data )
{ return -1; }

/// Create a matrix of the same type and size as src (for dst)
dst.create( src.size(), src.type() );

/// Convert the image to grayscale
cvtColor( src, src_gray, CV_BGR2GRAY );

/// Create a window
namedWindow( window_name, CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE );

/// Create a Trackbar for user to enter threshold
createTrackbar( "Min Threshold:", window_name, &lowThreshold, max_lowThreshold, CannyThreshold );

/// Show the image
CannyThreshold(0, 0);

/// Wait until user exit program by pressing a key
waitKey(0);

return 0;
}
Now i make a Push button Name Process_image in MainWindow.ui and connect to slot as clicked() by right clicking of mouse.
here comes the slot to mainwindow.cpp
void mainwidow::Process_image_clicke()
{
}
Now i don't understand how to make function of my C code and use it in Pusebutton.

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 Well, you can put that C code in

void mainwidow::Process_image_clicke()
{
    // Put C code here
}

But I'm not sure whether you should remove waitKey(0); as it could be problematic in a Qt program.

[gauravsharma0190]

@jsulm
i put it into Process_image_click()
{
//code
}
but error occurs.
as ontrackball function not declare

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 What is ontrackball? Where is it declared? Do you have to include a header file where it is declared?

[gauravsharma0190]

Yes it is function which is declare in the Opencv C code.
Here is the function.
@brief Trackbar callback - Canny thresholds input with a ratio 1:3
/
void onTrackball(int, void)
{
/// Reduce noise with a kernel 3x3
blur( src_gray, detected_edges, Size(3,3) );
/// Canny detector
Canny( detected_edges, detected_edges, lowThreshold, lowThreshold*ratio, kernel_size );

/// Using Canny's output as a mask, we display our result
dst = Scalar::all(0);

src.copyTo( dst, detected_edges);
imshow( window_name, dst );
}

[gauravsharma0190]

@jsulm Yes it is function which is declare in the Opencv C code.
Here is the function.
@brief Trackbar callback - Canny thresholds input with a ratio 1:3
/
void onTrackball(int, void)
{
/// Reduce noise with a kernel 3x3
blur( src_gray, detected_edges, Size(3,3) );
/// Canny detector
Canny( detected_edges, detected_edges, lowThreshold, lowThreshold*ratio, kernel_size );

/// Using Canny's output as a mask, we display our result
dst = Scalar::all(0);

src.copyTo( dst, detected_edges);
imshow( window_name, dst );
}

less than a minute ago

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 Where is this function declared? In which header file? "function not declared" means the function is not known. You have to make it visible including the header file. It is the same story as in C.

[gauravsharma0190]

@jsulm i Declare it in mainwindow.h
file as void onTrackball.
and i will send you all my code which i did .

Here i am sending you my all code.

Sorry, but the code you posted is invalid C/C++! First of all: why do you have 2 main functions?
Why did you put other functions inside void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*)? This is not going to compile and I'm not going to fix it for you. How familiar are you actually with C/C++?
What you have to do is: do not put the C function definitions inside void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*), instead put them inside another source code file and header, include the header file in MainWindow and then call the functions in void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*). As an alternative you can have those C functions in MainWindow.cpp but not inside void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*) !

[gauravsharma0190]

@jsulm
i don't put these function definition inside voidmainwindow::ontrackball
but i am asking you how can i call that function inside my void mainwindow::ontrackball

void CannyThreshold(int, void)
{
/// Reduce noise with a kernel 3x3
blur( src_gray, detected_edges, Size(3,3) );
/// Canny detector
Canny( detected_edges, detected_edges, lowThreshold, lowThreshold*ratio, kernel_size );

/// Using Canny's output as a mask, we display our result
dst = Scalar::all(0);

src.copyTo( dst, detected_edges);
imshow( window_name, dst );
}

Mean i hyave done .cpp and .h file of this and include in my code both.

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 Like this?

CannyThreshold(1, nullptr);

So, what exactly is the problem?
In the code you posted you DID put these function definitions inside void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*) (just check what you posted).

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 Shouldn't

void CannyThreshold(int, void)

be

void CannyThreshold(int, void*)

?

[gauravsharma0190]

ok now i will send you refresh code just wait.

@gauravsharma0190 said:

Sorry in ontrack.cpp i again add
Mat src, src_gray;
Mat dst, detected_edges;

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 Can you post the whole error message?
Why do you have int and void* parameter in onTrackball_clicked which you do not use?

[jsulm]

@gauravsharma0190 Take a look at this:

void MainWindow::on_pushButton_5_clicked()
{
QString filename=QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(
this,
tr("Open file") ,
"/home/pi/Desktop",
tr("All files(*.png *.jpg)"));

QMessageBox::information(this,tr("Filename"),filename);
if(QString::compare(filename,QString())!=0)
{
    QImage image;
    bool valid=image.load(filename);
    if(valid)
    {
        image=image.scaledToWidth(ui->Picture->width(),Qt::SmoothTransformation);
        ui->Picture->setPixmap(QPixmap::fromImage(image));

    }
void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*)
{

void MainWindow::onTrackball_clicked(int,void*) is inside void MainWindow::on_pushButton_5_clicked() - this is invalid!

[gauravsharma0190]

@jsulm
but i am not defining ontrack_clicked in push button its different.
