Question

The code is simple and is essentially straight from this tutorial. I am running Arch Linux and have the OpenCV library stored at /usr/include/. I have also chec

For me, this type of error:

mingw-w64-x86_64/lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/8.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld: mingw-w64-x86_64/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/libTransform360.a(VideoFrameTransform.cpp.obj):VideoFrameTransform.cpp:(.text+0xc7c):
undefined reference to `cv::Mat::Mat(cv::Mat const&, cv::Rect_ const&)'

meant load order, I had to do -lTransform360 -lopencv_dnn345 -lopencv... just like that, that order. And putting them right next to each other helped too, don't put -lTransform360 all the way at the beginning...or you'll get, for some freaky reason:

undefined reference to `VideoFrameTransform_new'
undefined reference to `VideoFrameTransform_generateMapForPlane'
