2016-09-05 12:22:00 -0600	commented question	How to access OpenCV data root directory? At install time, it could write a line into some config file that some static function then could fetch. It's still a good idea. :)

2016-09-05 11:46:37 -0600	asked a question	How to access OpenCV data root directory? I would like to access `/usr/local/share/OpenCV/haarcascades/haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml` from OpenCV distribution, but in a platform-independent way, e.g. in Python `os.path.join(cv2.OPENCV_DATA_DIR, "haarcascades", "haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml")` Can I? How do I get a reliable `OPENCV_DATA_DIR` equivalent? My question is basically the same to what this StackOverflow user is asking. For example, Qt has QCoreApplication::libraryPaths(). The correct paths are determined at compile / install time, so it should be possible to make them available to the user.
