May be imshow in not defined in your system. What is your operating system and compiler opencv version?

my os is windows 10 and i am using nuget package manager to install opencv package it is v0.0.2-alpha and what is '101010' i am not getting can you elaborate.

About 101010 it is about your code in your post Before post you have to select your code and click in this code. You can see difference here

Now I have never use nuget and opencv 0.0.-2 alpha it is unknow version. Can you try this program with same include and give results?

int main()
{
cout<<cv::getBuildInformation();
return 0;
}

I don't know nuget. If you install opencv from github and use CMake i can help you..

I understand now UWP : you want to make an universal windows application . I don't think that you can use imshow.

Check this sample.

About LNK1181 give manually path opencv_calib3d310.lib. (it is weird because it should be 2.4.10 version ?)

Thx a lot for your initiative to help me. i am checking out with sample if any issue i will contact you LBerger.

please, if you're a noob, try a non-managed (empty) project first.

managed c++ (what you're trying to use above) and opencv is not a marriage made in heaven, there's tons of (unnessecary) complications, please avoid those.

imshow is in the highgui-module: highgui so you have to include that.

#include "opencv2\highgui\highgui.hpp"

i tried but it is giving me following error: Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error LNK1181 cannot open input file 'opencv_calib3d310.lib'

which version do you run? are you sure your project property linking is correct? LNK1181 typically points toward an invalid linking to a library path. Maybe this one helps Link

actually i am using vs 2015,windows 10 and using nuget package manager for installing opencv referlink text
