Hello experts,

I am trying to compiling opencv on my computer but with no luck. Please help and find where is wrong!

My platform:

Windows 7 + VS2012 + Cmaker 2.8.11.2 + Python 2.7.6

I am getting following errors, but I am not sure what lib I am missing. Any help is welcome!

@berak That's all right. but there was an error when I submit my question. I guess that's why the duplicate appears.

unfortunately, since there is no debug version of the python.lib, you can only do a RELEASE build.

after that finished, run the INSTALL project in your sln. this will copy cv2.pyd to your site-package

That's right! It was successfully compiled with RELEASE build.

I had this problem when I was trying to build 64-bit cv2.pyd with VS2010 and Python 2.7. Turned out I was linking against 32-bit python27.lib instead of the 64-bit. I changed the cmake settings and specified the path to the 64-bit python library in cmake GUI. Then the errors were resolved.
