Problems with OpenCV ellipse detection in Java

问题

We tried to convert the c++ Code from Detection of coins (and fit ellipses) on an image into Java. When we start the program with the parameters

2 PathToThePicture

it crashes with this error:

 OpenCV Error: Bad argument (Array should be CvMat or IplImage) in cvGetSize, file       
 ..\..\..\..\opencv\modules\core\src\array.cpp, line 1238
 Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: ..\..\..\..\opencv\modules       
 \core\src\array.cpp:1238: error: (-5) Array should be CvMat or IplImage in function   
 cvGetSize

 at com.googlecode.javacv.cpp.opencv_core.cvGetSize(Native Method)
 at DetectEllipse.main(DetectEllipse.java:65)

Here is the converted Java-Code:

}

Can anyone help use? Thanks in advance !

回答1:

Probably cvGetSize(src) is doing the crash. That happens when src is null.

In other words, the image was not loaded/found (maybe the path is wrong?).

In the future, you can avoid such problems by testing if the image was loaded successfully:

IplImage src = cvLoadImage(args[1], 0);
if (src == null) 
{
    System.out.println("!!! Unable to load image: " + args[1]);
    return;
}
