since you don't mention it, -- codeblocks usually comes with gcc, and the prebuild opencv libs are for vs2015 only. so, step1 would be to use cmake to build opencv libs locally. did you do that ?

yes I downloaded cmake and tried several of the ways that google said but still "missing libntl-8.dll"

that's a mingw related dll, so probably your mingw/bin folder is not on the PATH

yes but I couldn't find a way to put it on the path

I misspoke there were ways to do it but they were "just add path_this\that\theother" and I have no idea where to add those

system settings -> extended -> environment

add a semicolon, and the (complete) path to mingw/bin to the PATH variable

okay but still not understanding I've got win 10, codeblocks 16.01 migw32x64. if your talking about sys setting on computer I don't have "environment" . if your talking about code blocks, after "settings-environment" ive got a bunch of check boxes to enable disable and two spaces,"shell to run in" and "terminal to launch console program"

okay I had run cmake the day before and after file explorer to search mingw/bin in codeblocks found this "cmakecache.txt" and only that. inside that I found //Configs CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES:STRING=Debug;Release

//CXX compiler CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=C:/Program Files (x86)/CodeBlocks/MinGW/bin/g++.exe

//Installation Directory CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=C:/opencv/opencv/New_build/install

//make program CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM:FILEPATH=C:/PROGRA~2/CODEBL~1/MinGW/bin/mingw32-make.exe

//Value Computed by CMake CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME:STATIC=OpenCV

//Path to a program. CMAKE_SH:FILEPATH=CMAKE_SH-NOTFOUND

//Value Computed by CMake OpenCV_BINARY_DIR:STATIC=C:/opencv/opencv/New_build

its the" //path to a program cmake_sh:filepath=cmake_sh-not found" that interests me. you think if I change that to the path it might work?. ill try it tomorrow but now night night sleep tight don't let the bed bugs bite

let's close this. it is all about installing / using codeblocks correctly, and not at all about opencv.
