内存不足错误Opencv / c ++

Question

When i run this code it give "insufficient memory error"

I found here : OpenCV Error: Insufficient memory

that findcontours function can cause this error but in my case i declared the vector> contours at the beginning of the code.

Answer 1

The error is "Insufficient memory" because you don't have enough memory... You have memory leak. You are reading images from the disk but you never releasing the memory they use.

And you shouldn't use IplImage in the first place. This is old format that was replaced by Mat (which you used as well). This situation wouldn't happen with Mat because it is a smart pointer and will release its own memory.

Answer 2

here's the culprit:

image = cvLoadImage(fileName.c_str(),CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR);

you're loading 3000 IplImages and never release them...

instead, you should use the c++ api:

Mat image = imread(fileName,CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR);
