Building opencv contrib_module on linux

Hello,

I am trying to use the Tracking module in https://github.com/Itseez/opencv_contrib. I have used the ccmake and successfully generated and run make -j5 without error. Modules have been built in the build directory but there's no (Extra) libraries in the /include/opencv2 . In other terms I can't locate the .hpp files generated from the contrib_modules.

Thanks

did you run a make install after that ? this should copy headers & libs

Yes, indeed. I get several lines like this one ([ 86%] Building CXX object modules/core/CMakeFiles/opencv_core.dir/src/alloc.cpp.o) but it's not copying the extra libs built (the one from contrib).

Actually I had some libraries disabled the first time I run the make. When I try to build all contrib library I get this error.

Linking CXX shared library ../../lib/libopencv_xobjdetect.so /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lWRAP /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpython collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: * [lib/libopencv_xobjdetect.so.3.0.0] Error 1 make[1]: [modules/xobjdetect/CMakeFiles/opencv_xobjdetect.dir/all] Error 2 make: ** [all] Error 2

Any idea how to fix it ?

cannot find -lWRAP

It means that you use latest version of opencv_contrib with non-latest version of opencv. Please, choose two revisions from the same time moment.

Solved using ccmake and disabling modules that seems to be broken and showing the same message in my comment.

Yep that is indeed a big downside to the contrib modules. I am no favorite of building them all and disabling the ones you don't need. I definately think people should switch it around, create an extra CMAKE statement that allows passing all modules to a single parameter you want to built. @mshabunin what do you think?

Yes, I think such whitelist can be useful. Also you can try to create meta-module similar to contrib_world and build only this module.
