My purpose is to build OpenCV with 3rd party jpeg support. By passing -D BUILD_JPEG=ON to cmake, I can see the object files being compiled. I wanted to copy the built jpeg library to the /usr/local/, but I dont see any library for libjpeg. I just see the object files. Do I need to put the object files in the library myself?

What is the signifigance of WITH_JPEG and BUILD_JPEG configuration variables in cmake?

WITH_JPEG means imread will able to read jpeg files using opencv jpeg lib or external jpeg lib.

BUILD_JPEG means opencv jpeg source files will be compile in opencv

in cmakecache.txt you can find

//Build libjpeg from source ----> use source in third party folder

BUILD_JPEG:BOOL=ON

//Include JPEG support ----> opencv can open jpeg file

WITH_JPEG:BOOL=ON

If you want to read jpeg with internal source files -DBUILD_JPEG:BOOL=ON -DWITH_JPEG:BOOL=ON and don't forget to delete CMakeCache.txt

so, if WITH_JPEG is OFF, then no jpeg files can be read, although a libjpeg package is installed in the system through apt-get?

I'm not a linux user but I think yes (if you delete CMakeCache.txt). I think sometimes you can use WITH_JPEG off if you have a specific jpeg lib and you can link your program with
