OpenCV install from source
- If cross-compiling, make sure you source a setup.sh that defines the cross-compiler environment, then set the corresponding environmental variables:
>> export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-xilinx-linux-gnueabi-
>> export ARCH=arm
- Grab the OpenCV 3.1.0 source, unzip to /tmp so that you can build there relatively efficiently
>> cd /tmp
>> wget https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/archive/3.1.0.zip
>> unzip 3.1.0.zip
- Create a build directory, and run cmake. Note that we are turning off many of the non-essential OpenCV features since they are not relevant in our Zynq / ARM configuration:
>> cd opencv-3.1.0
>> mkdir build; cd build;
>> cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=toolchain.make -DBUILD_NEW_PYTHON_SUPPORT=NO -DWITH_FFMPEG=NO -DWITH_GSTREAMER=NO -DWITH_GTK=NO -DWITH_JASPER=NO -DWITH_QT=NO -DWITH_QT_OPENGL=NO -DWITH_V4L=NO -DWITH_XINE=NO -DWITH_PNG=NO -DWITH_1394=NO -DWITH_OPENCL=NO -DWITH_IPP=NO -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DUSE_O2=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/ ..
>> make
- Some notes:
- The toolchain.make is only necessary for a cross-compiled environment. I have used something comparable to this link http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Building_OpenCV_for_ARM_Cortex-A8
- When cross-compiling, you want to only include the features you would actually need. For a native install, you can get away with more options. The WITH_GTK and WITH_QT should be set to ON
- If this part fails, you are likely missing some system header files (they should be platform-independent). Search for "lib_name-devel" or "lib_name-dev" packages and install them.
- You should decide where you want the libs / includes / samples to permanently reside. By default they'll go in the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX directory.
>> make install
- Depending on your setup, you might not be done. We like to use pkg-config to automate finding the openCV compile and linker flags. Check what file pkg-config is looking for with the following command:
>> pkg-config --debug opencv
If it finds your /usr/local/lib/pkconfig/opencv.pc, you are fine for compiling. Otherwise copy or symlink this file into one of the directories that pkg-config is searching by default.
- Some setups might also have dynamic linking errors even with the correct flags. For these, you need to tell ld.conf to look at your /usr/local/lib/ directory:
>> echo "/usr/local/lib/" > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/local.conf
