Is it possible to use, say, opencv_feature2d220.dll , alongside the dll from OpenCV 2.4.11 in the same project?

I mean, I would not use opencv_feature2d2411.dll in this project but only opencv_feature2d220.dll .

There reason is that I prefer the former implementation of a specific method, which is to my opinion (and for others too) broken in 2.4 and 3.0 (bug reports were already filled for this case, BRISK).

Right now, I plan to simply link to the correct libraries in my project, but I am afraid of hidden bugs or incompatibilities.

Thanks!

Bugs for Brisk in 2.4? Can you please add some links or errors and code?

I deduced that there were bugs in it from this: https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/pull... I may reword my question if this is not the case, of course! I recognize the problems that I have encountered personally are with the 3.0 version... However, I am still interested to know if it is possible to run some 2.2 dlls alongside 2.4 dlls.

I suggest not to do that, it is not ok to mix versions. I would recommend to use 2.4.11 with no fear, because if there were bugs in 2.2, they were corrected and it is not linked to 3.0 (it does not have 2 repos, different namespace for nonfree etc).

You could set up separate installs for both versions so that they don't interfere with one another.
