Porting code with only opencv-core (Mat) functionality?

edit

Hello,

I am in process of submitting code a paper to IPOL ()where I have used core of opencv for implementation, according to IPOL, they only accept code and nothing pre-complied further, it uses make or cmake and does not have any major dependency (opecv is considered a major one). I am only using code functionality and some IO (IO can be replaced with other options from IPOL). I was wondering how to is it possible to copy the code for the core functionality (MAT, Iplimage). I tried to just copy a few files from core that have the definition of structures I am using but there is an error (missing files opencvconfig.h).

I would appreciate any help, or advice on using part of opencv code.

Thank you,
