C++ Function Declaration for Matrix

Hi Guys,

I tend to write my functions at the end of my main functions. I'm having a little trouble making my function declarations a little neater.

Lets say my function is:

void function(int height, int width, Mat matrix, Mat  matrix2, string stringName){
//code
}

I tried declaring

void function(int, int, Mat, Mat, string);

but this doesn't work. How do you put the argument for a matrix?

Thanks in advance guys!

what are you using? windows? On ubuntu 14, kdevelop it works nice with function(1,2,cv::Mat(),cv::Mat(),""); Is it a function in a class? How do you call it? Is it called in another part of the code where you have not include the header where the function is declared?

You can define it as

void func(int, int, Mat, Mat, string);

I tried it works.The error may be due to the function name dont use "function" instead use another name. i tried

"void func(int,int,mat,mat);"

it works!!!

Strange doesn't work for me. I keep getting the error messages: Error 16 error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals C:\Users\Administrator\Robot.exe Robot Error 15 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "void __cdecl identifyObject(int,int,class cv::Mat,class cv::Mat,class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >)" (?identifyObject@@YAXHHVMat@cv@@0V?$basic_string@DU?$char_traits@D@std@@V?$allocator@D@2@@std@@@Z) referenced in function _main C:\Users\Administrator\Robot\main.obj Robot

I'm using Visual Studio on Windows 7 if it makes a difference. :) The function name was just an example...all my functions can't be made neater when a Mat is one of the variables. It's not that important but it just bugs my inner OCD haha

Just wanted to drop you guys an update. Worked for me on another program I was working on. Strange. Must have been Visual Studio being difficult.

"but this doesn't work."

is the WORST error description. What happens? Which error messages do you get? It is possible to pass a Matrix as you write it (assuming you have an "using namespace cv;" somewhere). Your declaration is however rather bad style, I'd suggest to change it to const&, so that your matrices won't be copied.

My question is not how to write my functions but how to do function declarations before my main program when Mat is one of the arguments.

Could you show your original code?
