I want to install open cv library and i am usi开发者_JS百科ng Dev c++ compiler. I tried several times to install open cv, but it doesnt work properly. i have read some documents which says, it is necessary to intall cmake first. but, i tried without it. can anyone guide me to install open cv please (please give me procedure, step by step).

I would answer this properly, but, here is my very important recommendation.

Don't use Dev-C++!

It isn't really maintained (last release was in 2005), it is mostly meant for beginning programmers (I learned from it myself), its a pain to do anything it was not meant to do.

I would suggest Visual C++ Express, Eclipse CDT, or Code::Blocks. If you have a computer that's pretty new, then, Netbeans.

If you are willing to use these technologies, a lot of people will gladly give you answers.

I wrote a procedure for Code::Blocks on Win32 a little while back.
