How can I get acquainted with OpenCV fast?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1. Look at samples.
2. Look at some web guides

3. Using C/C++ interpreter Ch to run OpenCV

4. Within Visual Studio you may load OpenCV workspace:
* opencv.dsw for Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0
* opencv.sln for Miscrosoft Visual Studio .NET 2003
* cbuilderx/opencv.bpgr for Borland C++ BuilderX
* select cvsample project, build it and run. Look into the code and modify it as you wish.
5. Also, scan through reference manuals - they contain some example code as well.
6. Search OpenCV archives at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OpenCV for the topic you are interesting in.
7. Create a new project from scratch or modify existing cvsample. There are
application wizards for Microsoft Visual Studio that create OpenCV-aware
projects; look for them at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OpenCV (Files section
