How to enable opensv dll to run exe

Question

I am wondering how to allow OpenCV project exe file to run on other Windows 7 machines without changing other PCs. It works on mine, since I have all the libraries installed. Can I paste the necessary files into the folder with the exe file?

Answer 1

You have to create a folder (for example ...project/libs ), put the libraries and VisualStudio in it (I think you are using VS), in Configuration Properties → Linker → General → Additional Libraries Directories set the relative path this way:

"$ (SolutionDir) \ LIES"

Where $ (SolutionDir) is the path of your project. An environment variable can be created in Control Panel → System and Security → System → Advanced System Settings → Environment Variables. Then just click Create and add the path and variable name (SolutionDir).

Answer 2

You can put all the necessary DLLs in the same folder as your exe, or put them in another folder (say C: / Programs / OpenCV / bin) and add this path to the System PATH.

To set PATH, go to "My Computer" - "Properties", "Advanced System Settings" → environment variables and find "Path". Add your own, and do not forget to divide it into ";".
