OpenCV使用imgproc函数时出错（2）

Question

Every time I use the image processing functions in opencv, I get a c++ runtime error.

This is my code, and I get "the application has requested to terminate it in an unusual way"

#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
#include <string>

int main() {
    cv::Mat a = cv::imread("img.jpg");
    cv::Mat b(a);

    cv::Canny(a,b,250,300);
    cv::namedWindow("Hello");
    cv::imshow("Hello",b);
    cv::waitKey(2000);
    return 0;
}

Answer 1

The cv::Canny function requires always a grayscale image as input. You need to convert a to grayscale first. The following code snippet does the trick:

cv::cvtColor(a, a, CV_BGR2GRAY);

Answer 2

Have you checked what 'a' is after the imread?

What if it fails because the "img.jpg" is in a different directory or you don't have permission.
