NOTES

For default suggestions of how the run the code, it assumes you put your build directory under Learning-OpenCV-3_examples directory.

Thus, from the Learning-OpenCV-3_examples directory:

  mkdir build
  cd build
  cmake ..
  make -j

Docker

For your interest, included here is an Ubuntu Docker file that

Shares a directory with the host operating system
Shares the first camera between both systems
Loads Ubuntu 16.04
Loads all dependencies for OpenCV 3.2 and opencv_contrib
Loads and builds OpenCV 3.2 and opencv_contrib into a build directory
- executable files end up in opencv-3.2.0/build/bin
Next, it git clones the code (and Docker file) for Learning OpenCV 3 and builds it
- executable files end up in Learning_OpenCV-3_examples/build
To get to the top level directory, just type: cd
