openCV 243 using static libs error LNK2019

Question

I'm trying to use openCV243 static libs in 64bit vs10 console application. My OS is win7 64 bit.

I've included following libs:

#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_core243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_highgui243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_imgproc243.lib")       
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_video243d.lib")        
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_flann243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_features2d243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_objdetect243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_core243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_calib3d243.lib")       
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_legacy243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_features2d243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_ml243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/libjpeg.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/libpng.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/libtiff.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/libjasper.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/zlib.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/IlmImf.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_videostab243") 
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_contrib243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_nonfree243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_photo243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_stitching243.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/IlmImf.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"../final_test/libs/staticlib/opencv_ts243.lib")

The runtime library is: Multi-threaded (/MT)

I get following linking errors.

...

can anyone help me to rid of this problem? Thank you.

Answer 1

You need to link with MS vfw32.lib library.

Answer 2

just do this in ur header file. It should work perfectly.

#include "opencv2/opencv.hpp"
#pragma comment(lib, "vfw32.lib")
#pragma comment( lib, "comctl32.lib" )
