Pete's profile - activity

just checked out my link.txt file generated by cmake and it seems that it is working after all..

When you build OpenCV v3.2 on ubuntu 16.04 LTS the installation creates several .cmake file. I want to use OpenCVModules-debug.cmake in a debug build and OpenCVModules-release.cmake in a release build of my project. My project CMakeLists.txt file contains:

find_package( OpenCV REQUIRED )
target_link_libraries(main ${OpenCV_LIBS} )

When I run cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug in my project it still links against the release versions of the OpenCV libraries. How to I get cmake to use the libraries specified in OpenCVModules-debug.cmake??

Edit: Just checked the link.txt file generated by cmake and it appears to be working! Still cant step into the library code in gdb but that must be a different issue.

This problem was caused on Ubuntu 13.04 where qtcreator does not detect the qt5 installation. When I built OpenCV the OpenCV build correctly picked up the qt5 installation. When I started the Qt project (in my case OpenCVNQt) with qtcreator only qmake-qt4 was detected. So the problem I saw was a result of a mismatch between Qt5 libraries used in OpenCV and Qt4 libraries used in my project. To fix this I had to delete the Qt project OpenCVNQt.pro.user file and manual add /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qmake ({Tools->Options; Build & Run; Qt Versions} See http://askubuntu.com/questions/279421/how-can-i-install-qt-5-x-on-12-04-lts). Also you have to manual add the Qt5 Kit ({Tools->Options; Build & Run; Kits}). Then I updated the project code, in particular I had to add QT += widgets to the OpenCVNQt.pro file and change #include <qtgui> to #include <qtwidgets> (see http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/portingguide.html).

Now it works!

Hi,

I am using Qt 4.8.4 and opencv-2.4.6.1 and get an odd error when running the application.

The offending line in the code is

        Mat img1 = imread(name, CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);

When I compile a simple test program without Qt libraries then OpenCV works just fine and loads the image. However when built with the Qt libraries the build works just fine but when the program is run I get

$ ./opencvnqt
*** Error in `./opencvnqt': realloc(): invalid old size: 0x00000000006119e0 ***

Does anyone know why this run time error is occuring and how to avoid it or how to debug it? FYI the build and link lines look like this:

g++ -c -m64 -pipe -g -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -DVERSION=1.0 -DPD_NOT_SERIAL -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++-64 -I../OpenCVNQt -I/usr/include/qt4/QtCore -I/usr/include/qt4/QtGui -I/usr/include/qt4 -I/usr/local/include/opencv -I. -I. -I../OpenCVNQt -I. -o MainWindow.o MainWindow.cpp

g++ -m64 -o opencvnqt main.o MainWindow.o moc_MainWindow.o  -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -L /usr/local/lib -lopencv_core -lopencv_highgui -lQtGui -lQtCore -lpthread

I am using SmartQ Ten3 T15 tablet with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. Now all the OpenCV examples work and a learnt a whole lot about android and OpenCV on Android in the process.

See noisecapella's very good answer to the similar question that I asked - http://answers.opencv.org/question/1545/opencv-242-android-sdk-missing-buildxml/

Copy build.xml from a sample (specifically tutorial-2-opencvcamera), only changing the project name to "opencv". Create local.properties in that directory with sdk.dir set to my SDK location. After that it worked fine

Also, edit build.xml to run the NDK build for tutorial-3 and 4, as described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7432449/android-ndk-build-with-ant-script

Thanks that fixed it for me.

I am using the OpenCV-2.4.2-android-sdk and have problems with the camera on my target. On the emulator the sample color-blob-detection works for me so I know I have the sdk correctly configured. On target the application crashes and in the logs I get
E/CAMERA_ACTIVITY( 1940): Could not read /proc/self/smaps
D/CAMERA_ACTIVITY( 1940): CameraWrapperConnector::connectToLib: folderPath=/data/data/com.NativeCamera/lib/
E/CAMERA_ACTIVITY( 1940): CameraWrapperConnector::connectToLib ERROR: cannot dlopen camera wrapper library
E/CV_CAP ( 1940): Native_camera returned opening error: 4
E/Sample-ImageManipulations::SurfaceView( 1940): Failed to open native camera

I see in the code http://fossies.org/dox/OpenCV-2.4.2/camera__activity_8cpp.html that this is used in std::string CameraWrapperConnector::getPathLibFolder() as a default when /proc/self/smaps cant be opened. The path /data/data/com.NativeCamera AND /proc/self/smaps do not exist on my target, does this mean that the native camera is not supported on my target? Or do I have to change the name of /proc/self/smaps in the OpenCV code to map to a file that does exist on Android 4.0.3?

looking at the output from dumpsys run on my target ("adb shell dumpsys") I get the following interesting entry:
nativeLibraryPath=/data/data/com.ti.omap4.android.camera/lib

When I start the camera application on target I get the following in the logs:
I/ActivityManager( 312): START {act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.LAUNCHER] flg=0x10200000 cmp=com.ti.omap4.android.camera/.Camera} from pid 525
I/ActivityManager( 312): Start proc com.ti.omap4.android.camera for activity com.ti.omap4.android.camera/.Camera: pid=2028 uid=10007 gids={1006, 1015}

So it looks like the OpenCV code is trying to find a way to locate the nativeLibraryPath using smaps.. but smaps now does not exist on Android so OpenCV must change to find a new way to locate the correct library. Has this bug already been fixed?

Getting a bit closer to the solution, back with Eclipse. On target I find that the same sample fails with D/CAMERA_ACTIVITY( 1796): CameraWrapperConnector::connectToLib: folderPath=/data/data/com.NativeCamera/lib/ E/CAMERA_ACTIVITY( 1796): CameraWrapperConnector::connectToLib ERROR: cannot dlopen camera wrapper library E/CV_CAP ( 1796): Native_camera returned opening error: 4 E/Sample::SurfaceView( 1796): Failed to open native camera And on my target device there is no /data/data/com.NativeCamera/... And if I start my camera I get

cmp=com.ti.omap4.android.camera/.Camera} from pid 525 I/ActivityManager( 312): Start proc com.ti.omap4.android.camera for activity com.ti.omap4.android.camera/.Camera: pid=2028 uid=10007 gids={1006, 1015}

So perhaps my camera does not use the native api

I am following the tutorial at http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/android_binary_package/android_binary_package_using_with_NDK.html#android-binary-package-with-ndk and found that I have to work round some odd problems. I am using an Android 4.0.3 target and developing on Ubuntu 12.04, I have android-ndk-r8b and am using Android 4.0.3 API 15. I am using Async initialization OpenCV Manager Android service to get OpenCV libraries on the target device. The NDK samples I have tried seem to work ok but all the OpenCV samples fail on the target with either - E/Sample::SurfaceView(1724): Can't open camera! OR

E/CAMERA_ACTIVITY(2076): Could not read /proc/self/smaps 08-16 21:29:33.817: D/CAMERA_ACTIVITY(2076): CameraWrapperConnector::connectToLib: folderPath=/data/data/com.NativeCamera/lib/ 08-16 21:29:33.817: E/CAMERA_ACTIVITY(2076): CameraWrapperConnector::connectToLib ERROR: cannot dlopen camera wrapper library 08-16 21:29:33.817: E/CV_CAP(2076): Native_camera returned opening error: 4 08-16 21:29:33.825: E/Sample-ImageManipulations::SurfaceView(2076): Failed to open native camera

I dropped back to command line from Eclipse to try and work out what in the environment was failing and I get an error .../android-sdk-linux/tools/ant/build.xml:569: Invalid file: .../OpenCV-2.4.2-android-sdk/sdk/java/build.xml because OpenCV-2.4.2-android-sdk/sdk/java/build.xml does not exist in the released sdk

Following appears to works ok: android update project -p . -s --target 1 ndk-build -B V=1

But then ant debug fails - [dependency] API<=15: Adding annotations.jar to the classpath. [echo] ---------- [echo] Building Libraries with 'debug'...

BUILD FAILED .../android-sdk-linux/tools/ant/build.xml:569: Invalid file: .../OpenCV-2.4.2-android-sdk/sdk/java/build.xml

Eclipse does not show this error so I am not sure what is going on or how best to tackle this problem... Perhaps I should build OpenCV with my environment - that surely would create /OpenCV-2.4.2-android-sdk/sdk/java/build.xml
