Hi all, I would like to modify the objectdetect module to expand its capabilities. I was wondering if it is necessary to recompile everything from source or if it exist a way to compile just that module, leaving the remaining untouched. Thank you.
imho, it's impossible to compile objdetect as a single module, but you could try to build a "minimal" version of opencv, while youre working on that.
objdetect's own dependancies are:
opencv_core;opencv_imgproc;opencv_ml;opencv_imgcodecs;opencv_videoio;opencv_highgui
so you definitely need those, but i'd try (maybe even in a seperate build folder) to tick off any other BUILD_opencv_XXX module option (also, BUILD_TESTS,BUILD_opencv_apps, etc) in cmake
PS: a complete build takes ~1 min on my box then ;)

If you just adapt that sourcecode and do a rebuilt of the OpenCV library then only that part will get rebuilt. This will be the fastest. Else you will have to adapt the CMAKE pipeline, which will take in the end much longer than just building everything again.
