First of all i would like to thank you for creating Q&A forum for ComputerVision users, the question is how to set OpenCv version 2.4.0 in C/C++ compiler Dev-c++ 4.9.9.2 for both .c and .cpp programs; in fact installation of OpenCv 2.1 and setting in Dev-C++ went well but always problems occur when trying to compile C++ programs.

Thanks

Guy, why on earth would you want to use Dev-C++? It was an obsolete editor by the time I was in high-school. Now it's more than 12 years since it's dead... Nobody would use it, and most probably the compiler that comes with it is too old to compile OpenCV code. Btw, it was never good for more than a "Hello world" app.

So, my strong advice (if you want to write more than printf("This is my DevC++ program");) is to find something better. Visual Studio has a free Express edition, and there are plenty of tutorials on how to configure and use it.

Another free alternative (a really good one) is Qt from Nokia. It may be a bit difficult to configure it, but it may be worth the time. It is nice, clean, and has plenty of productivity features.

Good luck!
