Hi,

why it's not work with opencv2410 ?

it show me this error

First-chance exception at 0x74C44598 in Project3.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: cv::Exception at memory location 0x006EEDE8.

If there is a handler for this exception, the program may be safely continued.

wkernelbase.pdn not loaded

what I have to do to run this code ?

Thnaks

For chfakht;

(1) The C99 mode probably requires variable declaration at the front, so you may consider int i at the front of code and use it at for loop like (i=0...

(2) cvHaarDetectObjects, I used faces = cvHaarDetectObjects ( src_gray, cascade, storage, 1.11, 4, 0, cvSize (40, 40), cvSize (100, 100) );. According to OpenCV document, we need the maxSize parameter.

Can anyone tell me how to compile and execute it?

i'm able to compile it using this command:

g++ facerecognition.cpp -I/usr/local/include/opencv -lopencv_core -lopencv_imgproc -lopencv_highgui -lopencv_legacy -lopencv_objdetect -o face
but while running the exe it failes giving this error:

VIDIOC_QUERYMENU: Invalid argument
VIDIOC_QUERYMENU: Invalid argument
