imread() 工作不正常

Question

Here is my code:

    #include<opencv\cv.h>
    #include<opencv\highgui.h>
    using namespace cv;
    using namespace std;

    int main()
         {
          Mat src;
          //src.create(200,500,CV_8UC3);
          src = imread( "a.bmp", 1 );
          namedWindow( "Display window", WINDOW_AUTOSIZE );
          if(!src.data)                              
                 cout<<"Could not open or find the image" << std::endl ;
          else
                imshow( "Display window", src);
          waitKey(0);
          return 0;
         }

It is always executing the if part
when I am using src.create instead of imread() it shows an empty image.

Answer 1

To debug your issue you should try to confirm that the image path is correct.

As suggested in the comments, try specifying the full absolute path of the file. Remember to to use escape slashes if you are on windows (eg c:\\a.bmp will need to be "c:\\a.bmp")

OR

If you are executing your application from Visual Studio then you can configure the working directory to be that of the bitmap too! ( OpenCV cvLoadImage() does not load images in visual studio debugger? )

You can also try using cvLoadImage instead of imread. If cvLoadImage can open the file then it is possible that you have a mix of release and debug libraries causing you an issue as per:

• OpenCV imread(filename) fails in debug mode when using release libraries

Answer 2

The OpenCV documentation has mentioned imread() would return an empty matrix ( Mat::data==NULL ) if the image file cannot be read.

http://docs.opencv.org/modules/highgui/doc/reading_and_writing_images_and_video.html#imread

You should check if the "a.bmp" file is in your current working directory. The IDE (visual studio) may set executable's working directory (Debug/... Release/... ) on purpose. Using an absolute path to "a.bmp", or starting executable in an expected directory from command line would also help, provided that "a.bmp" is a valid BMP file and you have the right file system permission to read it.

Answer 3

I was having the same issue on visual studion and imread returning null data.

img = cv::imread("c:\\data\\a.bmp",1);

Note the \\\\ delimiters to enable windows to correctly parse the path.

您的opencv库应该与config匹配，即在Visual Studio Debug或Release您的应用程序或您正在使用的任何构建（如果您使用的是预构建的二进制文件） WINDOWS 。
