Hi, I am new to opencv and I am trying to train a haar feature based classifier. I downloaded opencv for Windows with VS 2010, with pre built libraries. I see that the bin folders do not have haartraining.exe and createsamples.exe. How do I download/ build these? Since I do not see any projects in the folders to build them either. Thanks!

Just look at your apps folder, there is a structure there like mine:

D:\OpenCV2.4\apps\traincascade

Open an empty project in your environment. Add header and .cpp files. Configure the project to build for your target system, not forgetting about the linker settings. Build the solution for your system.

The result will be in debug or release folder. There you will find the exe files.

First of all move to openCV 2.4.6. Don't stick with old versions. Then apply exactly what I said. How can I be more clear I am wondering. If you don't get it, find someone in your neighborhood who knows about programming and building own projects.

Hi steven, thanks for your reply. I moved to opencv 2.4.6 and followed your instruction. But when I build the project it only creates projectname.exe in the debug folder, where can I find the haartraining.exe and createsamples.exe?

Well simply said, create a project haartraining, add all files that are under the haartraining folder as indicated, which will result after built in a haartraining.exe. If you indeed changed your project name, the exe will be different, but functionality the same if you call it in a command line prompt. For the traincascade this would be the same. I suggest using the cascade immediatly and not the older haartraining API. For the createsamples, only add the createsamples file to a new project and build also.

@Michael Vance: please create your own topic instead of hijacking an old one. The problem has been resolved many times before, so first do a deepened search of the forum. I will remove your question here, please create a new one as stated in the FAQ
