Could not find module FindOpenCV.cmake ( Error in configuration process)

Question

I wrote a CMakeLists.txt for a project in C++, which uses OpenCV libraries. When I try to create the project using cmake, I ge

Another possibility is to denote where you can find OpenCV_DIR in the CMakeLists.txt file. For example, the following cmake scripts work for me:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)

project(performance_test)

set(OpenCV_STATIC ON)
set(OpenCV_CUDA OFF)
set(OpenCV_DIR "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/../install")

find_package(OpenCV REQUIRED)

include_directories(${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS})

link_directories(${OpenCV_LIB_DIR})

file(GLOB my_source_files ./src/*)

add_executable( performance_test ${my_source_files})

target_link_libraries(performance_test ${OpenCV_LIBS})

Just to remind that you should set OpenCV_STATIC and OpenCV_CUDA as well before you invoke OpenCVConfig.cmake. In my case the built library is static library that does not use CUDA.
