I'm trying to use Qt functionality (such as named window with CV_GUI_EXPANDED), developing on Visual Studio 2015 on Windows 10.

I'm using the pre-built Windows libraries downloaded from the Sourceforge (opencv-3.2.0-vc14.exe)

It seems to me that Qt is not included in that file, and that I need to rebuild the OpenCV libraries from source with Qt, but I am unable to find any documentation of how to do that on Visual Studio 2015

Many thanks!

If you want to use QT you have to clone opencv repo ( or download from zip file) and build opencv using CMake

in folder g:/lib

git clone https://github.com/opencv/opencv.git or use button download from zip file
 run cmakegui
Where is source code = g:/lib/opencv
Where to build binaries =g:/lib/opencv/build
select generator Visual Studio 14 2015 win64 press configure
you can set OPENCV_ENABLE_NONFREE if you want SURF, SIFT... good idea is too set BUILD_EXAMPLES to true
You can disable BUILD_TESTS and BUILD_PERF_TESTS
WITH CUDA should be off if you are hurry
QT must be on. If it is not you will have to set a path to QT in CMake GUI
press generate

open.sln project should be in g:/lib/opencv/build open and generate. If you have doxygen it is quite long ...You can install opencv if you like

Now for your own project if you run cmake without installing opencv you have to set manually OPENCV_DIR to g:/lib/opencv/build

Dear LBerger:

Thank you very much for your answer!

I followed your instructions and in Visual Studio, and while building ALL_MAKE, there are 31 unresolved externals building opencv_world320d.lib, all of the out of window_QT.obj:

1>------ Build started: Project: opencv_world, Configuration: Debug x64 ------

1> Creating library C:/D2/opencv/build/lib/Debug/opencv_world320d.lib and object C:/D2/opencv/build/lib/Debug/opencv_world320d.exp 1>window_QT.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual struct QMetaObject const * __cdecl GuiReceiver::metaObject(void)const " (?metaObject@GuiReceiver@@UEBAPEBUQMetaObject@@XZ) 1>window_QT.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual void * __cdecl GuiReceiver::qt_metacast(char const *)" (?qt_metacast@GuiR

Can you post cmake output ?

LBerger gravatar imageLBerger ( 2017-02-15 11:15:44 -0600 )edit

cmake outputs many files. Which ones should I post?

DavB gravatar imageDavB ( 2017-02-15 13:14:44 -0600 )edit

If you use CMake GUI you can post result print in bottom screen. Try to disable opencv_world. Do you include opencv_contrib?

LBerger gravatar imageLBerger ( 2017-02-15 15:03:07 -0600 )edit

I couldn't upload the file for the Cmake results ... I'll insert below in this comment.

How do I include opencv_contrib? it's nut in the build list.

If I disable opencv_world it completes the ALL_MAKE. All the unresolved link errors come from window_QT.obj!!

It will take many comments to upload all of the output from CMake... :(

DavB gravatar imageDavB ( 2017-02-16 01:34:16 -0600 )edit

you can edit your message and add cmake output. Read this post too

LBerger gravatar imageLBerger ( 2017-02-16 02:28:49 -0600 )edit

I added the CMake output to my original post.

As for the StackOverflow post, I couldn't understand the answer, but I did run the

moc -I"%QTDIR%\include" -I"%QTDIR%\include\QtCore" -I"%QTDIR%\include\QtGui" -omoc_window_QT.cpp window_QT.h

with no results.

I've been scouring the web for solutions to this problem since Monday, and trying all kinds of stuff. Hours and hours without results. FRUSTRATING

Can you update your post ? you build opencv from github ? no opencv_world ? what is exactly error message now?

Im compiling opencv 3.2 with QT also. You must use only QT 5.6 otherones doesn't work with ocv 3.2 You can build with QT > 5.6 but you're going to get .dll error when you execute.

And also you have to add your qt bin to the path C:\Qt\5.6\msvc2015_64\bin

I don't use QT but I have some doubt about your answer If you open OpencvCVFindLibsGUI.cmake there is no test version about QT5

LBerger gravatar imageLBerger ( 2017-02-15 15:00:34 -0600 )edit

Thanks for your suggestion. I just spent a couple of hours re-downloading Qt and remaking OCV with Qt 5.6.1 and the results are EXACTLY THE SAME as with Qt 5.8.0
