Getting the cutting-edge OpenCV from GIT repository
---------------------------------------------------

2012-08-30 19:49:53 +08:00
Launch GIT client and clone OpenCV repository from here: http://github.com/itseez/opencv
2011-08-23 19:19:58 +08:00
In MacOS it can be done using the following command in Terminal:
.. code-block :: bash
cd ~/<my_working _directory>
2012-08-30 19:49:53 +08:00
git clone https://github.com/Itseez/opencv.git

Building OpenCV from source using CMake, using the command line
================================================================
2012-06-11 18:33:45 +08:00
#. Make symbolic link for Xcode to let OpenCV build scripts find the compiler, header files etc.
2011-08-23 19:19:58 +08:00
2012-06-11 18:33:45 +08:00
.. code-block :: bash
cd /
sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer Developer
2011-08-23 19:19:58 +08:00

#. Build OpenCV framework
2011-08-23 19:19:58 +08:00
2012-06-11 18:33:45 +08:00
.. code-block :: bash
2012-08-30 19:49:53 +08:00
2012-06-11 18:33:45 +08:00
cd ~/<my_working_directory>
python opencv/ios/build_framework.py ios
2012-08-30 19:49:53 +08:00
If everything's fine, a few minutes later you will get ~/<my_working_directory>/ios/opencv2.framework. You can add this framework to your Xcode projects.
