Hello. I'll start by saying that I'm just now starting to learn to use OpenCV libraries and I never was an expert on C++.
I want to create a smaller Mat element out of an image and do some simple processing to it. So I created a simple function with iterations to introduce elements of the original image in a 3x3 Mat element and return it, but the code keeps crashing, even when I don't crate a function, but use it outside. I haven't been able to identify a cause. I'd appreciate help making it clear to me as to why it doesn't work. Thanks beforehand, here's my very simple piece of code:
#include <opencv2\opencv.hpp>
using namespace cv;
using namespace std;
cv::Mat Sort3x3(cv::Mat source, int y, int x) {
int i=0, j=0;
cv::Mat Wind9;
Wind9 = (3,3,CV_8UC1, (0));
while (i<2){
j=0;
while (j<2){
Wind9.at<uchar>(i,j) = source.at<uchar>(y-1+i,x-1+j);
j=j+1;
}
i = i+1;
}
return(Wind9);
}
int main( int argc, char** argv ) {
Mat Source = imread("saltpepper1.png", IMREAD_GRAYSCALE);
cv::Mat Wind9;
int i=40,j=40; //Some random test numbers for a position in the image
Wind9 = Sort3x3(Source, i, j);
waitKey(0);
}
