I am new to opencv but have a question that is similar to one already asked but am curious if the answer suggested has changed. The question is here "answers.opencv.org/question/3959/need-help-on-gcc-c-linker/". Context: I have downloaded the executable (3.2.0) from source forge for windows. I want to set up my build environment in eclipse (out of habit). I would like to link to the libraries that are discussed in the thread I mentioned earlier. The second answer suggested that the libraries can be found in the following directory "%OpenCV_Directory%\build{x86|x64}\minGW\lib" but the only path I have is "%OpenCV_Directory%\build\x64\vc14\lib". So my question is, with the recent windows executables, with the prebuilt library can I still use eclipse on a windows machine? if so where can I find these libraries to link to. Apologies about the web link apparently I don't have enough karma.

you can't use the prebuild libs at all for mingw/eclipse. (they are only for vs2015)

see here for build instructions
