Well. Now it says build finished with Error 2. I got to say yours was the most useful thing i found so far about how to set this up for vs code. Im on linux though so things are different i guess. I have followed like 10 different tutorials so far and it all falls apart at some point. maybe i should stop trying to learn coding if i cant even work with libraries.
Hi Yeah Linux is a bit different since u need visual studio 2019 c++ development tool to be able to do it this way. It's not available on Linux. Definitely don't give up on coding because of libraries. It's not the easiest if u are just starting out. My recommendation would be to start more simple and make tale a look at python first and get familiar with everything and then read up on libraries and cmake
Yeah u should definitely look into how to link to the binaries of the libraries. Often cmake is used to set up and link libraries, at least if u just want to set up some projects fast. So take a look at some cmake tutorials and so on and maybe start out with windows unless u need Linux for some specific things. I prefer Linux too but lost things out on the internet are in windows of what I have seen. Can be done in Linux easily but u need some knowledge about how it works and how to do it of course

This tutorial is unusable for any extensive development with OpenCV and CMake. It's nice it works for You but honestly this is in no way documenting a proper way of OpenCV installation and usage. Especially if You are using any kind of version control.
And to be clear I'm not building OpenCV from source files but using the installed package. Make sure to check the channel out before leaving random comments if u are going to make comments. Ur comment is for no use since i have several videos building OpenCV from source files with different versions and so on.

No such file or directory detected after build everything
I got this Error please help !!
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:7 (find_package):
[cmake] Found package configuration file:
[cmake]
[cmake] C:/DEV/opencv/build/OpenCVConfig.cmake

[cmake] but it set OpenCV_FOUND to FALSE so package "OpenCV" is considered to be
[cmake] NOT FOUND.
Hey thanks a lot. but can u please make a video on how to add the tracking modules? Wld be really helpful
At 7:00 it is saying
No CMakeLists.txt was found
What to do ?
Please help anyone!!
Your content is so wonderful. But don't you use CLion IDE instead?
Thanks a lot bro! I just prefer vs code over anything because of the look and all the extensions
Hi, I can complie the .cpp file like the video indicates([build] Build finished with exit code 0), but when I run I got following error on the terminal:
[ WARN:0@0.015] global C:\build\master_winpack-build-win64-vc15\opencv\modules\imgcodecs\src\loadsave.cpp (239) cv::findDecoder imread_('Resources/test.png'): can't open/read file: check file path/integrity

(I'm sure the image payh is correct.)
can anybody help, please??
The same problem for me, anybody helping me to solve this problem would be great
Can we Do this using MinGW g++ and mingw32-make file?
Im not sure how to do that, but it might be possible
Hey, Thanks for the video.
I did exactly what you showed in the video but I get an error with opencv header files not found:
main.cpp:2:10: fatal error: opencv2/opencv.hpp: No such file or directory

compilation terminated.
Thanks for watching! Did u set the environmental variables?
@@NicolaiAI yes, i have set the environment variables.
@@BlacksoulRider Hey, I know it's far fetched cause you have done it ages ago, but did you figure out why this happened? I have the same problem. I would be most grateful.
@@veljkojovanovic2152 Unfortunately, NO, it didn't work in VS code for some reason.
However, I built opencv from source using Cmake and continued using Visual Studio Community.
thanks! i'm looking for codeblocks opencv installation
Thank you so much
Thanks a lot for watching!
Nothing happened when I press the CMake: Configure button. I dont see any architecture options or anything. It just disappear
Same
@@yaroslavprotsenko4116 I figured it out, already. You have to open your folder in VSCode first

Same problem. Did u find a solution for it?
Same
I know this is crazy late but did you figure out the solution
bro, nice video. But ur high speed may not be a friendly choice for a EN-specker
Can I use any compiler other than msv_...
Hello, thanks for the great videos! I have had issues for 2 days, I can't make it.
So I followed steps like u said, create PATH for env, then configure CMAKE, but
[cmake] CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project):
[cmake] Generator
[cmake]
[cmake] Visual Studio 17 2022
[cmake]
[cmake] could not find any instance of Visual Studio.
I found this error, and Idk what to do.
Thank you!
thanks man. that's worked fine for me.
Thanks for watching! Glad that i could help
Hi, great tutorial it help me a lot to get started. I have a question, when you do CMake: Configure -> create a new file...etc. 7:58 CMake generate CMakelist.txt, main.cpp and some other files files. Is there a way to customize those files? I will like to have those, custom made for me
Same here... No popup, what to do next then?
For people getting the linking errors ( LNK2019 LNK4272 LNK1120 ), select a different kit, shift+ctrl & P --> "Select a Kit" and choose something different, maybe amd64 and build again after a few seconds.
THANKYOUU
In my case, it was because I was launching it from C/C++ (top right) instead of CMake/Launch from the button at the bottom.
It wants me to load a cmake.txt file
should i trust this?
I encountered a small problem at 7:04. VS code shows only 3 options:
1.[Scan for kits] Search for compilers on this computer
2.[unspecified] Unspecified (Let Cmake guess what compiler and environment to use)
3. GCC 8.1.0 i686-mngw32 Using compilers: C=C:\......
which one do I select? I am trying perform watermarking on 1080p images using only c.
@@stalinsaravanan3059 apparently 3rd option works. Try that
Hey I had the same problem all day, I resolved the issue by installing Visual Studio 2019 Community. Those three option you have are the compilers you can use however, in the tutorial we see The Coding Lib select the Visual Studio 2019 Community Release. Hopefully that helped be sure to install it, run it and set it up and the other options should populate.
Your webcam blocks a lot of useful information. I found it really hard to follow what was going on because of this.
Meanwhile in python: _pip3 install opencv-python_
How to install opencv_contrib VS code?
Done it! Cmake
Great that u figured it out!
Hello! Tank you very much for this video! i tried to install all components. but i have some failures: Error LNK 2019, LNK 4272 - 7:00 i use the release - X86, fatal error LNK 1120. can you help me? its my first project in Virtual Studio. it would be very helpful if you can explain how i can fix these failures. with best regards stefan
have u managed to fix this?
did everything still get fatal error: opencv2/opencv.hpp: No such file or directory
#include
i have the same issue; did you ever resolve it? if so, how? thanks.
Could you do a linux version? That would be great!
I'll definitely do that
@@NicolaiAI can you do the linux one with contrib module.set it up in linux with contrib with either clion or vscode
the first 15 seconds were unintelligible. please slow down.
Not working broo
Do u have visual studio 2019 with c++ development?
@@NicolaiAI I have visual studio code and c++ development extension or c++ ?? I have c++ but I don't have c++ development
@@RegishShrestha try install visual studio 2019 and check off c++ development tool and see if that solves ur problems
@@NicolaiAI thank you .Yeah now it worked
Great! 🙂
This tutorial is unusable for any extensive development with OpenCV and CMake. It's nice it works for You but honestly this is in no way documenting a proper way of OpenCV installation and usage. Especially if You are using any kind of version control.
That's not the purpose of the video. 98% of people watching this video haven't used OpenCV before and for learning purpose.
And to be clear I'm not building OpenCV from source files but using the installed package. Make sure to check the channel out before leaving random comments if u are going to make comments. Ur comment is for no use since i have several videos building OpenCV from source files with different versions and so on.
If someone is having this error in WINDOWS10:
[cmake] Could not find a package configuration file provided by "OpenCV" with any
[cmake] of the following names:
[cmake]
[cmake] OpenCVConfig.cmake
[cmake] opencv-config.cmake
What to do:
add to CMakeLists.txt the following:
set(OpenCV_DIR "/opencv/build")
before
include_directories( ${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS} )
Also restart VS code if code is not running
Thanks!
@@NicolaiAI Nothing bro! Thank you for the great videos!
Thanks a lot for the support!

did u solve
did you solve?
I got a problem, in the command 'find_package( OpenCV REQUIRED )' .
Then OpenCV is not install correctly

@@elkinguerra8287 Hi, how did you fix this? I reinstalled it from the executable but it didn't seem to work....
@@datisreyhani4641 hi!
My problem was that I hadn't created the environmental variable for OpenCV, when I created it then everything worked fine, the variable that I created was OpenCV_DIR that is the path to the lib directory
