Hi, I'm trying to compile OpenCV 2.4.8 with VS 2013 with cmake, using the official guide (http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/windows_install/windows_install.html).

However, when I build the OpenCV solution, I'm unable to find the created dlls and pdbs. Can anybody guide me as to where these files might be?

Usually, the .dll and .pdb files will be located in the build\bin\<build mode=""> folder where <build mode=""> can be Debug or Release. And after you build the Install project, all the files will be copy to build\install\<platform>\<vc version="">\bin folder where <platform> can be x86 ..., and <vc version=""> can be vc10, vc11, vc12, these values depend on the versions of Windows and Visual C++ you use.

Ok, I found them. Thanks. But I noticed that they are labelled as "opencv_core300d.dll". Why is the version being shown as 3.0.0 when I downloaded 2.4.8?

Yes, it is because if you downloaded source code from https://github.com/itseez/opencv, the default branch is development version (3.0.0-dev). You must select branch 2.4 in order to have 2.4.8 version.
