OpenCV with VS2012 (Qt Support)

Question

I am trying to build OpenCV on windows 32bits following this manual .

• VS2012 as IDE.
• Qt support (built from sources according to the tutorial).
• phynx documentation.
• Tried to include CUDA support, but as of right now it is not compatatible with VS2012.

Everything goes fine until I get to the building part using the solution files created from cmake. For most modules i get the following error:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file '....\\lib\\Debug\\opencv_core249d.lib'

with different files, but always error LNK1104.

When the compilation is complete the end result is something like:

Build completed. 9 succesful, 245 failed, 7 up-to-date, 0 skkiped.

Bottom line, I can't build opencv on vs2012, anyone got a tutorial or tips on this?

Answer 1

Are you sure you are using Opencv2.4.9? opencv_core249d.lib indicates you are using that. I'm going to post a tutorial on how to build opencv2.4.3 on VS2012, you can come to my blog a few days later. I'm going to publish it this weekend. My blog post is at How to compile opencv 2.4.3 x86 and x64 using Visual Studio 2012
